New to Saltwater

[Rson1982]

Hello everyone,

New to the forum and new to saltwater fishing. Been fishing religiously for the past 2 month and can't get enough.

Looking for new areas to fish for stripers and blues. I haven't gone surf fishing on the beach yet, just from the piers and only in two locations. Port Monmouth and Edgewater (no luck at this location yet).

Caught my first striper ever last weekend (18") at Port Monmouth and would love to catch ones that I can actually bring home. Love the taste of them!

I learned everything that I know about fishing by watching the veteran's there, types of line, sinker slides, casting net to catch peanut bunker as live baits, different types of rigs and above all, how to be patient and also from watching videos on youtube.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Ross
