Fog and heavy surf this morning in Barnegat Inlet but the Stripers were there. Fish were hitting falling white lead-head bucktails. If you used a teaser, good chance for a double header. Also received similar reports from Fly Fisherman using White Clousers off the High Bar Dike. In both cases the Stripers were approaching 10-pounds.

With stiff NE winds to 40kts along with heavy rains, most of the time this week was spent preparing, tweaking, and getting the Reel Fantasea ready for the Fall season. The rods are ready, the tackle is ready and the live bait pens are full of live spot. By Sunday it was time to do a little solo scouting around and see what was going on in the bay and inlet areas, the water has clearing up since earlier in the week, there is bait everywhere and the inlet had experienced it first all out striped bass bonanza. There were visible striped bass all over schools of bait in the still rough water, but it was fish on with almost every cast. Hope this is just a sample of things to come. I have a few remaining dates for the fall season; October 17, 23, 19, 26 - Nov 2, 16 - Dec 7, 14. Call to reserve a date for some of this years fall action. ~ Capt.
