Fishing threade

Makes sense on the bones with the little fella!

 

Went out on the beach yesterday and found a pod of bunker. I snagged a bunch of them and let em drop. The tenth one and my drag started ripping off fast! Heres the fish

 

After hooking up like that with my feet in the sand I called my buddy with a sweet azz Parker. We hit it at 7:00 a.m. and found water like this After an hour of snagging and dropping we reached our limit. Here's the biggest one. If you can zoom up on the water shot! You can see bass rippin through that sh!t. What a awesome Friggin weekend for having no swell haha.....

 

Hey Brad nice fish, photos and weekend, these are days we live for! Congrats

 

Holy shlt! I have never caught a bass that big. Went out tonight and was surrounded by huge schools of peanut bunker and tons of tiny bass, like 12 inch stripers.

 

Zippy, what kind of boat is that? Looks wooden. Panga? Some sort of skiff?

 

Its a 17 foot starcraft aluminum 1967 model. I rebuilt and modified it to a center console and added some high tech electronics.

 

Here is a better picture

 

Thanks Zip! They're heading your way! Keep an eye out for the herring and full grown bunker. That's when we started seeing the bigger fish.... Good luck bro!!!

 

Nice work!

 

Damn! The visibility was so good on Saturday I almost went spearfishing. Probably shoulda. I got skunked that morning, but there was still tons of peanut bunker moving through. Just nothing eating them.

 

Same down here. Some Peanuts and tons of RainFish but no bass on them unless you get out on a boat to reach them. Ive got a couple of boat trips planned next month, not messing around this season!

 

Same down here in Md gin clear water. Last night i could see the stripers darting under the boat, swiping at the lures etc. Had an 18 incher just sitting under the boat like I wasnt there. I dropped my lure down to see what it would do and it kept attacking it and spitting it out. Stripers are really pretty to look at like that from the top down.

 

Water here in NH is as clear as mud. Or thick chocolate syrup. Such a pleasure.......

 

Lol! Take a ride over to Block... clearest water on the East Coast.

 

^^^ I call that a "breakfast fish." Some grits and hot sauce... a couple of runny eggs... Best breakfast on EARTH!

 

Awesome pics of the whale Z. And the size of the fish don't matter if it brought a smile to your face and a meal to the table.
I love this time of year. Action on the water and on land. Coulda shot a coyote on Saturday but a little Seldom Seen appeared on my shoulder and told me not to. I let him walk away. He was right under my stand. I could smell him. He had that wet dog smell. Deer are everywhere. Headed out of Cape May tomorrow for my first crack at the Strippers, I mean Stripers.
