Thanks for the info... I think I may try it tonight... What should I use for stripers? Poppers and topwater lures?

I'll be out tonight also. Not were theres any stripers though. Lookin for big cats and some late night bass action.

Fished from 7 to 10. Caught about a dozen bullheads. Nothin big and no channel cats. Got skunked on spinners and rapalas too. Still, awesome night by the water.

I fished in the Lyndhurst/Nutley area from 1am - 4am.... and got nothing... I had one blow up but I couldnt see it happening (it was too dark) and I missed the hook up... I dont know what it could of been but it made a hell of a splash ... LOL.. and I saw a few swimming rats unless they were otters cuz again I couldnt tell cuz it was too dark... lol

They must taste great (see Lard Almightys Law), lol!!!

I pass by that exact area 2-3 times a week. Often see people fishing there, often wondered what they are fishing for. I wonder how it would taste, especially them being resident fish. Funny, saw a sh*t load of seagulls just sitting on the water there last week. Almost as if they were waiting for something to happen.
