How about giant rays, or cow nose rays?

The old salts fishing for bass would count any trip that didn't land bass as a 0. Just saying.

Old salts- cool. Love that thanks for sharing.

Went out front to nomoco yesterday afternoon around 1pm. It was dead. Water was beautiful and I felt like there had to be some fish coming in. Maybe just delusional thinking on my part. Came back about 3 hours later at 4pm. There was a bunch of guys catching blue fish and one or 2 small stripers. I don't know what kind of bait was in the water. Seemed like they were feeding on it though. Looked like very small bait to me. Got a few blue fish on a crocodile spoon. Once they hit they would go wild! Fun stuff and a good way to end my saturday with some fish caught.

Skunked last 2 nights in a row. back bay, lotto fish are leaving the area to make babies in the Hudson.

Nice going gents. Jigfreak you put in a lot of time fishing. When you skunk out it must be legit. I fished nomoco yesterday. It was a beautiful afternoon and the water wasn't that bad on the beach I fished. A few other guys, only a few fish caught. I was throwing a shad and caught 2 short stripes. Figured the blues will be in full effect soon, felt like I could sacrifice at least one shad to the sharp teeth. No blues for me though. I get to throw my shads another day.

Thank you sir, enjoy your reports.

I skunked too. Sunday morning in moco ocean front. Should have tried the back. felt like more stripers would be in the ocean on the migrating trail. boy was I wrong. Not even a bluefish. Hope they get here soon.
