Tournament Weather

[Sam]

Looks like light winds Saturday/Sunday with partly cloudy skies! We might actually have decent tournament weather for a change!

Bring your firewood, Saturday night is going to be a bit chilly!!!

[Critter Gitter]

Man is it warm or what??? I don't think the huge schools have even thought about coming south yet. Me thinks there will be a decent December bite.

I sure hope so... I gotta get out there and fish sometime soon. I have only put in about 9 hours of striper fishing this fall in the suds!

[trowpa]

Sam - 9 hours???? Man, you're a local!!! What gives? I'm 4 hrs away and have about 15 logged.....

You better get movin!

Right now the weather looks good....it COULD be a lot worse. The question is how many times will they change the forecast between now and Saturday morning.


I figure to log about 34 hours striper fishing in this event.


The only downside is I will have to listen to my Terps on radio instead of watching on tv.

STRONG S/E Wind is blowing the fish towards the beach right now!!!

Looking really comfortable for Sat/Sun.

I can smell em all the way over here on my side of the pond. Stressing out about gettin good bait though. Got some pre-cooked beach food already fired up as there will be no time to cook. Gonna tie up some secret killer anti-crab rigs just in case those exo-skeletal bastages are crawling around. Will be some tough competition with CJs homemade magic stick so need to do a stealth end around.
Sam - BTW thanks for the sacriface of not fishin this weekend and putting on this first tourney.

My pleasure my friend. I have a feeling I'm going to be putting in a lot of driving time on the sand this weekend.

With the bait situation... I am worried that storm will keep the boaters out of their boats. Maybe it'll be okay tomorrow and they'll make it out. I would call around tomorrow and get fresh ASAP.... If I was going to fish.

I am also stressing about bait. Seems like we will need LOTS of bunker with the reports about crabs.


I wonder if I will see Dave picking up bait tomorrow. I hope so!



Here is something else to try. I know some people catch rockfish on bloodworms during the colder seasons.....I wonder if whole bloodworm fishbites would draw hits from rockfish. The crabs don't seem to like them much.

[Critter Gitter]

Phil where can we get clams?

[esoxangler]

Dave,

Not sure, but I will be nosing around tomorrow. I am kinda pinning my hopes on bunker.

[ffemtreed]

I used to use big candy Gummy worms for largemouth Bass off a boat dock.

Dip them in some fish juice and sling uhm out there.

Just don't blame me if you don't catch any fish!

[Coop]

if I can't find bunker,,,it's going to be clams,,,lots of clams.

30.5 hours and counting and then its.... GO TIME!!!! Good luck to everyone fishing this weekend..looking forward to it.
