Hitting our honey hole Sunday for the first time this year.

Fun day on the Cape Cod Bay!

We caught Stripers (1 keeper), Flounder (16 keepers), a Skate, a crab, a couple small garbage fish, and then these….

Somehow I became the squid whisperer, hauling in four, which was unusual according to first mate Caleb!

Looks like a great trip!!!!
What did you catch the stripers on?

We were jigging for Striped Bass. Heavy jigs that we worked along the bottom, to mimic crab.

We went fishing. Caught a zillion little ones but man was it fun. They were pretty spunky too.

Dude caught a big catfish from his kayak in the Black River and broke the state record.
Released it.

Did some bank fishing in the Hudson last night from 7-11pm, using bloodworms and night crawlers. Caught three catfish and a small eel. While the eel still has some movement we fished him as live bait, until we turned him into cut bait. Got nothing on the eel.

I used to fish the Hudson near the tz.
Even caught a a couple of 36” strippers.
But mostly nasty eels.
Just cut the line they are so gross
