Fishing for striped bass in Montauk Long Island from The Fishing Line TV show using pencil poppers. We fished all over that day but most of it was Turtle Cove and south to Camp Hero and the Sewer Pipe…you should buy the 2 part DVD we did that day with aerial views of all the beaches with their names, what beaches to be on what tides etc…this is an awesome video! see more at www.thefishingline.com
Nice fish…….
looks like a cordell pencil …bout 6″?
Released to breed and dance another day,
unlike those immigrant fisherman that keep all short bass and kill skates and fithy the beach.
Is that Lamiglas surf rod,what you fishing with?
big ass fucking popper
Yes, Montauk is the mecca.
Not always,I live here and pencile poppers like this one work well mostly during the day.But you dont see to many slobbs on the surface because there are to many shorts and Blues in the pods,so large Bucktail or diamond Jigs are used to get the slobbs that stay tight on the bottom.Night time is a whole other ball game but is when you see the biggest fish brought in from the beach.I actually use Live EEls and try to catch last 3hrs of incoming tide,or first 3 hrs of outgoing. Montauk is awesome
So, Montauk’s the mecca for Striper fishermen? I was just on the beach at Island Beach State Park in Jersey this morning. There were a slew of them in the wash and most of the action was in the bulge of water just before it bursts onto the sand. All, except for the 37-inch fish which my younger Brother kept, were shorts. In the sub-25-inch class. We were out on the beach 45 minutes prior to sunrise. May do this tomorrow on LBI at Surf City, NJ. Happy fishing to all.
