Great report Andre. Nice job figuring out your baits. But 7:30PM to 12:30PM????DAYUM! That's putting in some time!

Wow, that's dedication. You definitely have more patience than I do. If I don't get a bite in like 20 minutes I get up and leave.

Hey, I don't want to see you get any expensive tickets, so I just want to copy & paste some of the NJ freshwater fishing laws:

You mentioned you had four rods rigged out. The state law limits you to three:

It is unlawful to possess or use any fishing device with more than nine hooks in total, or more than three treble hooks. When fishing from the shoreline, no more than three fishing rods, handlines or combination thereof maybe used.

Also, I don't know what you keep and what you released, but hybrid striped bass have their own creel limits:

Hybrid Striped Bass
Statewide
Season: Open year round
Minimum Size: 16 inches
Daily Limit: 2

Thanks on the rods heads up. I actually thought we were limited to 6 but now I know I was wrong. For hybrids I don't keep anything below 20 inches and same goes for the cats. Sizes I caught were 21, 14 and 12. Felt sorry for the smaller one since he swallowed the hook pretty deep so to give him the best chance just cut my line and left the hook in him. Hopefully he will survive.

Great job Andre. If you need help with all the action, let me know and I'll take it off your hands. Get that camera fixed or atleast get a camera phone!

LoL. I cant stand smartphones for some reason. Probably because I kept on breaking them. As far as action goes you know you always welcome to join. There is fish for everyone to enjoy. Just a heads up I am not fishing without a bottle of Jack. Just a superstition that I have.

Haha yeah I know I am always welcome with you. I am just more of a morning fisherman (don't know how you deal with the bugs and lighting especially at Farrington). Maybe one of these days I will take you up on a trip to Spruce since I have never been there. And hey you can have bottles of whatever you want as long as it brings the luck.

Bugs don't like the smell of pine so that always helped. And lighting ...man lighting show at spruce last night was something else ... loved it.... I wish I could fish in morning but the job wont let me .... and bottle always works for me...

Oops that was an error. 12:30am I meant. Otherwise it would mean I am still out there.
