SEA BASS

In Delaware, rock fish is strped bass.

Black Sea Bass, I wish I would pay attention when I go on the charter trips,
our capt'n always goes to a marked area just off the coast between Jersy and Delaware.
We end up with a cooler full of them.

Excellent eating and not bad even after being frozen a while.
 
Down south maybe, I was pulling the black/sea bass out down on Manasquan Inlet, they hang right in the rocks. Pulled one out and the fellow next to me called it Rock Fish.
I don't know, but they sure tasted good ;)
 
Ok I'm going with new found friend( 26 ft w/a) this Sat. Wants to fish for Sea Bass. Help Any techinigues or secreats to catching this fish. I have only caught the small version here in the Ches Bay. Going outside CBBT
 
They love the rocks!! seaworms or squid are the bait of choice here. But some use crab also.

Don';t much for gear 5 pounds is a big fish for these guys!!
