The haddock are drifting eastward now and the skipper is planning on combining a shark/groundfish combo for perspective charters. On a hunch that there’s bigger still at dark, they are going to start carrying eels and let them do the yeoman’s work for them. Drifting from The Spit through Fourth Cliff remains productive and the fish seem to be upsizing to keeper-plus stripers. The Legit crew are having luck finding macks just outside of the North River higher in the water at dusk and then dropping a Sabiki towards the bottom during daylight. While it’s no secret that your mackerel search will be more fruitful at first light, that favorite striper snack does not sprout wings and fly away at sun-up, they just drop down to the bottom. While you may not care to go to such lengths to land such a fish, you can do yourself a big favor by fishing hard during the next week – because historically this is when the cows come calling! OTW Kayak Corner columnist Eric Harrison caught and released this 50-plus striper this week!

It’s not supposed to be easy, and a guy who pursues his passion from a kayak at night, during downpours at the tail end of relentless easterly winds, certainly has earned it. Unless you’ve been marooned among mangroves off the Mozambique coast, you’ve seen the photo of a soaked Eric “Slappy” Harrison (On The Water’s Kayak Corner columnist) clutching a striper the length of which never seems to end.
