WE HAVE SOME STRIPER ACTION!! We had two weigh-ins yesterday – one from the bay and one from the beach. Greg Lee and a friend came in yesterday afternoon. Greg had (a hair under) 31″ bass that weighed 10.3# (non-tournament). His friend had a 40″ catch just before him. They were both using an SP Minnow (that we have here at the shop 😉 and caught off the dock in Beach Haven. Then in the evening, Jonathan Kelly caught a 29″ and 7.55# striped bass that he caught in Holgate on surf clam – Jonathan is in the LBI Spring Derby and the Jingles store tournament. We also had a report from Mike Johnson – he caught a 27″ striped bass off the surf in Beach Haven using bloodworms. Its seems those striped bass are hungry so it’s time to get out there!
