Who are you?

[Adam]

Where do you live Adam? If we get together in AC we could do that. It sounds great. I'm right in Toms River. Are you from the area originally or a transplant?

Ski,

I moved to Point Pleasant from Freehold when I was in fouth grade. Moved to Toms River (Fairways at bay lea) for a year and a half when they first went up. Then bought a house in brick about six years ago after being outbid on a bunch in Point. I live by the 70 bridge. The better side of brick.

Hey Bro, where do you go Crappie fishing? Kerr Dam? Why would anyone think of releasing crappie? There is enough of them for everyone. I used to love fishing the Suffolk water supply lakes. There are some very large shellcracker and decent bass fishing. Have you ever hit that lake in VA with the Florida strain Largemouth? I forget what it is called.

I have cousins out here in WA state that are into Steelhead fishing. That reminds me to give them a call this weekend.

I like to catch shellcaracker and bass in my backyard.

FL strain LRG Mouth Bass? I have always wanted to catch a 10 lbs + Large Mouth... ever since reading Doug Hannon's Hot Bass! as a little kid. The best I've done so far was probably about 7 lbs which is a monster for Iowa. I released it so the weight is only an estimate. A 100 lbs Taimen or Tarpon someday is another goal. Oh, and I forgot about my Grander fantasy (Blue Marlin).

I too would love to hook a lunker largemouth. I used to be quite a freshwater fisherman in my youth, probably spending all day on the weekends in the summer on Cape Cod fishing. Best I ever did was catch a 3 lb bass, though I must have caught thousands of them.

Never tried it in Florida, my guess is my luck would be a bit better.

Kerr Lake is my favorite Crappie lake dude. We call it Buggs Island. I've gone there since I was a kid. Here's a picture of me and my little boy out on Kerr Lake last May.... I'm either telling him how to drive.... or I'm singing, can't remember which.lol

Good deal. The record crappie came from Buggs Island/Kerr Lake as I'm sure you know. Do you ever do any striper fishing and have you fished for Florida strain bass at Briery Creek? I've done some saltwater striper fishing. The Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel is wonderful all winter long! I've yet to go out in the really nasty weather though.

Don't throw back those crappie!

Striper fishing is fun...I've never caught one though.

[Lyehopper]

Fishin'!!!!

Lye, post one of yourself dude...

Anyone else care to post a pick? What's up...are y'all scared??? jejeje

Hey Webs.... Here's one I like of my boy and me surf fishing.... It was taken by my wife last fall at Ocean Isle Beach NC.

Note: Although "on" the East coast.... the beach at Ocean Isle runs "East and West".... and not "North and South". Notice the sun is setting down the beach. I love that beach and have been going there since before I was born.lol.... I remember when there was nothing but sand dunes on this beach.

Ocean Isle Beach NC....

Here's another one from that trip.... This one was taken right after sunrise.... Notice the direction the sun is shining from....

Bean,
Are you in Seattle now? The striper spring run is just beginning on the Jersey shore. I'm in Toms River, NJ and for the last couple of weeks I have been hitting the beach a couple of mornings real early before sunrise depending on the moon cycle and the tides. No luck yet but the water is warming up considerably an it won't be long. I'm strickly a lure guy but the guys using worms and clams are getting them regularly now. I'm building over on the beach right now and have an office trailer 1 block from the water so it's easy for me to store my waders and rods and tackle in the trailer and get changed there. Anyone in the area who wants to try it out can look me up or call me at: 732-830-1077 office land line or 201-832-3880 cell. I can set it up for any morning around 4:30/5:00 am until 8:00 am. In another week or so when the weather breaks and the water really starts to warm up this is some of the best beaches and striper fishing you'll find.
