i am good i just dont want it to go were it should not it only takes a few to get some po and i dont to see that :HappyWave:
hey its all good finchaser i only thought ur a little crabby, its not cool to hate on ppl who use bait. i also plug and fish shads and bucktails on the bridges and pretty soon i will be on the beach with u maniacs too. :bigeyes: i just waz thinking that there must of bin one time in ur life that you fished with bait, and i didn't mean to diss you when i was saying it so if anyone is po'ed my bad im sorry dudes!:(
its all good no one is upset
I didn't have a problem with any of it and I don't hate people who fish bait. To me it's boring to just sit around waiting for a fish to swim by kind of a no brainier. I prefer to entice fish into smashing a lure to me it's much it more challenging and exciting.
Yes I do use bait for bottom fishing on a boat if the fish can't be jigged examples: blackfish or night fishing blues,sharking chunking tuna. I do use live bait for bass because I get to control the bait and it adds to the excitement . I also don't believe in snag and drop as it is another no brainer and injures or kills too many fish.. Plus I release all my fish.
Your right about one thing most of us won't wear our $200 waders back there;)
yeah yur rite about that it is boring sometimes that's what the :bong2: is for. when fishin is slow it really suxxs sometimes and i don't know a lot of dudes who catch fish in the summer with plugs unless they go to montauk or up north or on a boat. july and august were sucky months for fishin in nj.
so finchaser when you were fishing for sharks did you use bluefish chunks or the whole blues? whats the biggest shark u ever got?:drool: :fishing:
I know, and you're right on this Fin. When I wrote it I was thinking of the striped bass eating them, not of them being used as live bait. But at the piers and docks, anything is possible, even people keeping 12" baby bass. Thanks for bringing that up. :thumbsup:
Yep anything goes there on the piers:(
Pluggers don't have the seabass issues,
But you bait guy's :kooky:
You would have been in your glory where I fished this AM in clean water there were Pelicans all over the place, maybe pushed north with the tropical airmass. You could have added to your bird documentary;)
You described them to me with such great detail and enthusiasm that I couldn't help but wonder if you were developing a possible interest in bird watching. Ya want I should get ya a birdwatching book from the library??? :ROFLMAO :wow::plastered: :fishing: :ROFLMAO :HappyWave:
Are you sure you want to lay that on him? I did a search on birdwatching and swans on this site, dark, look what I found.:d

This was the big one that didn't get away.
North Bergen resident Jude Foley caught an Atlantic striped bass near the George Washington Bridge on Sunday that weighed 50 pounds, 7 ounces.
"We're going to eat it, that's prime meat right there," said Foley, 42, of 61st Street, eyeing the 4-foot, 4-inch monster fish.
Fishing in the Hudson River for 15 years, Foley said he's never caught a fish that size before.
It took Foley and his friend, Robert Vitale, 52, of Waldwick, about 90 minutes to get the fish onto the boat. Vitale, who owns the boat, finally grabbed the fish under the gills and hauled it in.
The world record catch for the same fish is 78 pounds, 8 ounces, and that fish was caught in Atlantic City in 1982, according to the International Gaming Fish Association.
Foley used a small bunker fish to lure the bass but said the fishing line was not strong enough to haul in his catch.
They tried to employ a net but it broke apart.
"You don't want to muscle him (the fish) and snap the line," Vitale explained.
now that is a cow evan if its a boat fish thats the second fish that size i have seen second year seen one last year:fishing:way to go man:thumbsup:
