Passaic River 11/1

[antgogz]

So after realizing my power was not coming on right away and I was probably off work for the week, I decided to hit up the passaic river at a spot where I hear striped bass have been caught. I threw swim baits, ghost colored xraps, ratltraps. After about 45 minutes of nothing I finally got a nice solid hit on my xrap. The fish struck and spit it out right away, all I could see was a bright reflection in the water of a fish probably 12-15 inches long. My guess was that it was a small striper or a white perch. What does everyone think? I was so pissed I didn't get him in.
