Looking at the fishing reports from grumpy bait and tackle near island beach state park.
He says the fall striper run has started in earnest. He says there’s a lot more fish further north.
Time to dig out the waders and korkers and catch some!
Yes I saw that, time to go. What's your favorite spot?
I'm in Delaware in Rehoboth Beach and have caught a few last week. Going out again this week, live eels are working the best!! Tight lines & cold beers!
My favorite spot is island beach state park near lavalette nj
I like the park cause they have bathroom facilities at the entrance to clean up after a day of fishing.
Plus there’s miles of unspoiled beach .
The first cutoff after the gate leads to a piece of beach that has worked for me in the past.
Good luck out there.
I haven't gone into the park but have done well just outside the entrance at 24th Street. Do they close down the rest rooms when cold weather arrives?
what are you using? lures, live bait?
I use 2 rods, mostly baited - 1 with clam ona 2 hook rig, the other with bunker chunk on fish finder rig, both using circle hooks. I'll change up one of the rods by throwing artificials - most artificial success has been with paddle tails and SP Minnows. Always attach a teaser with lures - either wet fly or sand eel. These are all pretty standard striper methods.
Fishing south shore of Nantucket this weekend. Maybe the stripers will visit us up here.

Good luck in Nantucket. I suspect most of the schooling’s have headed south now in north jersey.theres always the resident fish that hang around. Let us know how you do. Tight lines!
I’ll probably just catch a cold but it’s always great just being out there.

They are still up in Raritan Bay en mass. Sounds like they are trickling further south. I like to troll a chartreuse rattling bomber from my kayak. From shore, can’t go wrong with white paddle tail shad on an oz. jig head.
