Tale of two tides

This past week saw outstanding fishing on the ebb tide. Stripers and blues were feeding hard on the outgoing tide, three-wayed bucktails produced stripers up to 37" and bluefish to 14lbs. The flood tide was VERY slow with both species in the race. Trolling parachutes produced a few bass and bluefish. Night fishing was the same minus the blues. Live eels and black bucktails were the ticket to getting your limit.
