Pier fishing on seagull pier/lynnhaven pier for striper. ANy suggestions of baits to use/ techniques? Thanks guys.

For the bigger class of Striper, try floating a live eel on a bobber set up as well as a live eel on the bottom using a fish finder rig.

Schoolies will bite pretty much anything if they're around. Try jigging 1/8 or 1/4 oz jig head switching up various colors of the grub.

Hope this helps.

Since you are referencing fishing on the VA piers, I moved the thread to VA. You'll get more responses here.


BTW...fresh bait...usually bunker in VA.

strippers love eels

From the piers I usually soak cut bunker, spot, perch, or live eel on a fishfinder rig w/ a 6/0-8/0 circle hook. Live spot is my favorite bait. While I am waiting i'll jig storm shads, bucktails, gotchas, stingsilvers, etc.

I'm not sure I'd try fishing off the Lynnhaven Pier in December. You might get arrested.
