I’ve only been hearing about shad this week, but then Roccus, one of our most devoted striper guys, sends out these pics. At least a couple stripers up either near or in the river.

Posted at 13:21h, 05 MayJudging from the photographs, I’d say one was out front along the beach in a boat, the second appears to be upriver a bit.

Posted at 09:52h, 08 MayHey Sam b…..use a small elastic or elastic string and wrap it around your clam when on the hook….you clam will stay on the hook longer.

Posted at 09:58h, 08 MayI agree with the comments of these caught fish likely being river holdovers….look at how skinny these fish are.

Posted at 08:29h, 09 MayThose wern’t holdovers and they were caught in the river…. 1.5 ounce upperman style jigs with soft plastic tails….
