Some decent blues were in the mix
today as this happy angler landed
a beauty.
It was another wild day of fishing for me along the RI oceanfront. I found an area of the oceanfront that had rough, but clean white water, ideal conditions for stripers. In front of me the surf line was black with bait...all peanut bunker. There were vast schools of them that just kept moving along. For hours, the stripers and blues were rampaging through the bait, often blasting it into the air. In the mix were some albies though I could get none to hit.
Landed this keeper bass along with a lot of
schoolies on the float and jig rig.
The stripers and blues were in the hitting mood as they jumped all over my float and jig rig. At the end of the rig I was using a white, homemade flathead bucktail jig with a three inch plastic curly tail added. Flathead jigs are great imitators of peanut bunker.
For the afternoon, I landed 32 stripers with most of them schoolies in the 20-25 inch range. I also had one small keeper. In addition, I landed 3 bluefish which doubled my total from shore for the year (yes, so far there have been very few).
The big issue today was finding clean water. Much of the water along the oceanfront is dirty with sand and weed. In some places, a sand line extends up to half a mile off shore. But, if you can find that clean water along with bait, you most likely will find a lot of stripers and blues and maybe some albies.
