Fri June 28 – Sunset Jigging for Striped Bass & Blues
Capt Dave G. reports a slow night on the Viking Star. We saw a lot of action last night, but not quite the desired species with some large keeper Porgies and SeaBass. We were marking the Stripers last night, but they weren’t biting on the ebb. We hook a handful of short Striped Bass, but none were keepers. There was definitely a lot of life around, just a different bite with the tide, we are looking forward to the New Moon Striped Bass trip next week to get back on that flood tide.
