I fished at an undisclosed location on the peninsula this morning from 5 am - 6:45 am. Non-stop striper action! I caught (and released) about a dozen schoolies on a Yo-Zuri popper, of which the biggest fish measured 27" 8 lbs. Just as many fish got away or wouldn't hook themselves, and I spent a little too much time unhooking the two treble hooks from the fish. At sunrise, 6 am the bite all but stopped (surprise, surprise) and so I tied on a small Rebel instead. The few stripers that were still around just seemed to toy with it, but I did catch a flounder before deciding to head home.
It was a beautiful sunrise with almost no wind and nobody else around, which is the way I like it. I must've donated a pint of blood to the mosquitoes, but with fishing this good, I didn't really care
