Say Tin

Went out yesterday, in Barnegat bay and Barnegat Inlet, had a bucket full of frisky perfect size eels, marking stripes in holes in the bay. Hit them in the head with live eels on both sides of the tides and slack water. THEY DID NOT WANT THEM :-/. First time in my life Stripes would ignore eels in their face. Caught some schoolies 25-27 inches on Tsunami artificials and on surface poppers in the cuts between sand bars.
Went out to the inlest and played dodge em with the submerged rocks on the jetty end and they were there but would not touch the eels. Some guy who went and paid 4.50 for spots was catching them on every cast, would not touch bunker live or chunks and would not touch eels in the exact same place. Fishing go figure ???

And anyone from the site in Barnegat Inlet yesterday, saw a nice V20 coming in from out side the inlet, could not see the name on the boat.

My friend went out in Raritan Bay Friday, said they would not touch eels there either :o
They got some shoolies on the plastic fish and some Blues but the stripes were few and far between with live Bunker. One keeper all day :-/
Tin you better send some of those stripes my way soon :D
