NH Striped Bass Fishing - reel ecstasy - 07-17-2010
[font "Calibri"]Week Ending 7/18/10[/font]
[font "Calibri"]We had good Striped Bass fishing with at least 2 keepers on each trip this week. [/font]
[font "Calibri"]Fishing was good and we mixed trips this week with some trips we used live bait[/font]
[font "Calibri"]And other trips we used chunk bait. On two days we even got into some short[/font]
[font "Calibri"]surface action with pods of smaller stripers on the surface. We caught them [/font]
[font "Calibri"]on casting plugs and rubber lures. The feeds didn’t last long but we were [/font]
[font "Calibri"]in the right place at the right time, and fished them hard for the 15 minutes they [/font]
[font "Calibri"]were on top. [/font]
[font "Calibri"]Saturday was a fun trip with long time customer Paul and his wife and young children.[/font]
[font "Calibri"]Everyone had a blast catching bait, mackerel and pollock, and then we spent some time [/font]
[font "Calibri"]catching stripers. Just a lot of family fun. [/font]
[font "Calibri"]This week we also caught a sea bass, our first for the season. Every year I get a few, they [/font]
[font "Calibri"]make for good eating even though much smaller than striped bass. Sea Bass are more [/font]
[font "Calibri"]common south of us where sometimes party boats will run trips for them. In NH they are [/font]
[font "Calibri"]rare and there aren’t any size limits on them, although anything less than 14” is just too [/font]
[font "Calibri"]small to keep. [/font]
[font "Calibri"]Tight lines, Capt. Joel[/font]
