Bunker chunked for stripers in Delaware Bay yesterday from 6 a.m. to 2:30
p.m. and caught not one fish. Radio chatter sounded like the bite was first
thing in the a.m., and if you weren't in the right spot at dawn, no fish.
Weather was calm, warm, sunny, seas were flat. Sounded like the Cape May Rips
was the only spot producing stripers and some blues during the day and like
stripers in Delaware Bay needed worse weather to bite. Fished first at some
small rips probably a mile or less inshore of the 14 buoy in about 21 feet at a
drop off from 15 feet to 40 feet. Later fished with the fleet toward
the north tip of 20-Foot Slough in about 30 feet. But crabbing was
good--big crabs kept grabbing our bunker baits, so we took a few
home. |
