Hit the Delaware yesterday afternoon before this big Wind event. Managed to pick up 4 linesiders in less then 90 minutes, my best trip yet!! Biggest was 20+lbs, a personal best from a kayak!! Put my new FF to good use, could finally see what I've been missing! It's supposed to be 55 and mostly sunny this weekend with a water temp of 61, should be good. -O'boy

Small boat, big fish.

Good job Otter. I have not caught one striper worth talking about from the Big D ever. I thought stripers are outta the river this time of year?

Did you use bait, north or south of Linden ave? I live in Parkwood near Franklin mills. Should hook up sometime.

The Bass are in the river all year round on up to New York Thou they are smaller bass up there, With larger ones showing up more often, At Worthington ST Park. Launch. go to the shear wall by the old bridge Pillers When the water is clear you will see them schooled up. At night we used small 6" live trout Live lined in the fast water there, Get Trout at Asbury Hatchery, and KEEP the receit, and when the river Closes for bass BillW

Marko, I'm pretty much an exclusive artifical guy; mostly Rat-l-traps, Storm plugs and Wildeyes. From my experience some fish Winter and Summer over, but your best chance at numerous, aggressive fish is Spring and Fall. I'm South of the locations you mention, usually within the 10 or so miles between and around the Commadore Barry Bridge and the Delaware Memorial. I'll email you my #. -O'boy
