Fall Stripers

Any where from ibsp to the hook is a good start. The wind is all over the place this year but Friday Saturday look like west north west which should bring bunker to the beach. Get out on those sand bars that how I caught all my fish guys who stayed on the beach didn’t do anything. The wind looks stiff north west it could make fly fishing challenging.
There are big sandeels around too like 8 inchers don’t sit on bunker. Sand eels tend to be a first light bite or night time game. If there is rough surf or over cast it can also produce good fishing.
 
That’s most likely a very tiny portion of the entire coastal, primarily female, striped bass population, which suggests that if environmental conditions, such as temperature, pH, etc were good during an upcoming spring the population could produce a very large year class. Given the apparent size of the fish in the video (if I’m estimating correctly) and their apparent general uniformity for the most part, there’s a good chance that they are from the 2015 yr class, the yr class toward which protection is being directed.
