The last two days have been good for trolling stripers. The jig bite has been slow so we have been relying on trolling the wire to put fish in the boat and it is very productive. Sunday we caught using a tube umbrella rig and Maja bunker spoons. Today we had all of the fish on just the Maja spoons. The best color for us has been the green/chartreuse combo. The fish are mostly 12 to 20 pounds. I have been finding good action in 35 to 45 feet of water off of the Coast Guard Station on Island Beach State Park. I noticed the fish I cleaned lately didn't have sandeels in their bellies, but rather big sardines or cigar minnows. Not a lot of bird play, but wall to wall readings on the depth recorder. Looks like a blowout for the next two days, so we will be back out Thurs, Fri, and Sat for more striper action. I will be running open boat each day. 6:30 AM to 2:30 PM
