Hey guys,
First true season with the boat, and I've been dying to get out this fall for stripers.
I just feel like the marine forecast has been terrible every weekend, and I'm starting to think I just need to go for it and stop waiting for perfect conditions.
Tomorrow might be that day, what say you veterans?
When do you stay home, what winds are favorable for me to go out in, etc. The old salts I get recommendations from have 30+ ft boats so it's a whole different animal, any advice is greatly appreciated.
I'll be heading out of manasquan inlet
 
Tomorrow looks like it will be not so bad along the beach! The good thing is they had em good today big fish too.
If its not for you, stick your nose out and see you could always turn around we all did that. Good Luck
 
The time is Right NOW!
West or NW is great for bass along the beach. Bass & blues were just outside Manasquan inlet today.
Try close to the north off the radio tower first, from beach out to 60 ft.
Giant schools of bunker. Snag em and put em on a 8/0 circle hook, One weighed down, others free swimming.
Or troll spoons or plastic shads...
If it doesn't happen there head south.

All I could say is check the internet and see all the boats and picture's of stripers caught exactly where it was mentioned in this thread. I am going tomorrow hoping for the same action!
 
Ended up going out today, boat handled great, ocean was calm but we got a late start and from what I gathered bite shut down early, by the time boat traffic got there, me included, fishing was rough.
Great day on the water, no fish to show for it, First skunk this year for me
Get out early!
