we fished the rips off of the delaware bay wall last sunday, only managed a 23 and a 24", and a couple dogfish. it was chilly out. a friend went out of the solomon islands and had their limit by 930 am, with the largest being 52 lbs.
Stripper Fishing Went the other day, Nothing!!!!! Have one for season 33" thats all. Fall fishing this year has been bad, at least here on the Island.
Finally got my salt water liscense just the other day so I really havent been but from what my old man has been telling me there hasnt been alot of activity out there.He checks out the beach quite a bit and said theres really not alot of guys fishing not even out there.Water temp right now should be ideal for bass so I might start getting out there thou.
Our Fall Season stunk this year, water was too warm and what fish finally showed were scattered throughout Delmarva. It's troublesome when you catch too many Rock fish with Myco sores that you can't touch without rubber cloves or much less eat them either
Yeah, this is my first season striper fishing. Still learning a lot. I have gone out about 6 times and came back with a fish 2 times. I'm taking the boat out this weekend so I'm trying to go out 1 or 2 more times. Just picked up some Stretch's to troll with. Here's a pic of the fish:
The fish are covered in reddish sores; you shouldn't handle without gloves or eat them The link below will explain more but its nasty stuff http://web.vims.edu/myco/FAQ.html?svr=www#Symptoms
thats strange man..i'm not into fishing but my buddies who are tell me that keeper stripers caught off the rocks at IRI are likely to have myco sores
