04/25/2009 - Striper Fishing Raritan Bay
Quick trip report from today's action.
Hit the Raritan Bay with Charlie, Scrub, and Tom E for some striper action.
Charlie's been putting together some great catches all week, so we attempted to continue the trend.
We figured the crowds might hamper our efforts, but we managed to catch the majority of our keepers in a small window before the tide changes and the bite died.
Really awesome day, with our group landing a boat limit of 10 keeper stripers (2 bonus tags) with a good number of throwbacks.
Scrub lead the way, landing 5 of the keeps!
Unfortunately my camera was acting up, but I managed to get pics of all the keepers except one, along with a few other pics.
Here's some from the day...
Tom E...always smiling!
Scrub...action shot of the infamous two-handed HI!
Charlie...doing a little pre-emptive fist pumping? That, or in an effort to get pumped is punching himself in the face?
Nice sunrise coming...
Little fireball in the hazy sky...
We start off with a triple header....two keepers.
Charlie with his...
Tom E with his...

Big thanks to the Edison hick for taking us out to the promise land today!
Great fishing with Scrubster and Tom E again!
Until next time...
