I unfortunately did not get a chance to sail this past weekend.  Though it seems as if striped bass have really started to make a showing.  With Sunday being Mother’s Day and only having Saturday to fish, and then the AC breaking I had do deal with home repair issues.

I received many reports of bass and some good sized fluke with some bluefish mixed in were caught both inside and outside over the weekend and early this week.  Fish have been caught on various jigs, bunker, herring, spoons and umbrella rigs.  One common theme seems to be that you needed to search them out.  There might not have been tell tale signs of birds diving and fish busting but if you searched out structure, bait and kept an eye on the sonar you found the fish.

Hopefully I will get out this weekend, it all depends on if I can get my current work project done early…if I really move my butt, which I am planning on doing I may be able to fish both Saturday and Sunday.
