Sightfishing Tailing Stripers

Fished with Joe C and Greg last evening. We had a fantastic
evening. We ended up catching and releasing around a dozen bass and
about a dozen blues...most on the fly. The highlight of the evening
was the happy tailing stripers we had the pleasure of casting to while
they rolled in the grass. We witnessed tailing stripers in inches of
water gorging themselves on the abundant spearing. We were positioned
so we had repeated casts to these tailing fish. This was true
sightfishing for stripers on the flats. A good cast produced a strike.
These conditions lasted almost two straight hours. We had fish on
both clousers and on poppers. What a blast!

  1. It just get's better and better Joe.Whoever said that there are no quality salt water flyfishing opportunities in New Jersey?They must be from New England or Long Island.They certainly would think differently if they had been out with us last night.It's also a lot closer drive.
