?Fishing wrong end of AI

[Bunker Head]

A tourney was held down at Toms Hook this weekend and quite a few large stripers have been checked in! Whats up with that? Have they just bypassed the MD side or what? Not only large were checked in but a lot of (just keeper size also) oh well we will keep trying.

Just curiuos,,,I think they are doing beach replenishment in OC now,,,I am wondering if this could decrease the amount of stripers in our area,,,either due to noise (sand running through pipes),,,sand dumping on the beach,,,sand pumped from off the coast,,,many fishing going around away from the mess?,,,just a thought,,,thinking the further south you go the better,,,I am always trying to find an excuse for my lack of catching ,,,I have been fishing the northern end, no more, unless time is limited.

You just might be on to something Coop, did not know O.C. was pumping.

Hmmm... Very interesting and probable theory...

Interesting indeed. I will likely be fishing the top end of the orv in Sam's tourney. I guess we will figure it out if I get the skunk and the rest of the guys down south are catching. Time will tell.

Uh Oh..... Saw from pictures from a reliable source that SEVERAL large stripers were caught this past week on the MD side of AI...

You all know I would tell you if I could.
