While the fish we caught were relatively small, we had a blast catching over twenty rockfish in less than thirty minutes. Once we located a school while trolling plugs, we stopped and jigged the pilings . Had double hook-ups numerous times. Actually left them biting at dark!

Looking forward to the arrival of the Stripers in the bay here! I sure hope that it’s a better year than the last couple, weather played some mean tricks on us the last few years. I’ve had a unique year fishing for different species than normal in the bay, targeting Spanish Macks when I would normally fish for flounder and Speckled Trout now.
I have been getting a lot of Spanish this fall as well. So – catch what bites! Hey – they fight good and eat good!
