Subject: Secret Tidal River, New Jersey
Submitted by Dmann (ip 152.163.201.48)
Date Fished: 3/24/2001
Water Temperature: 47
Water Clarity: 0 Just keeping in the spirit of things.:) The Delaware was running very fast w/all the recent rainfall. No sooner did I launch,when the sun went in & the wind picked up! Water temp was a suprise at almost 48. Had a hard time holding against the wind & tide. Dropped jigs into slow spots on points. The strike zone was very close to the bank and the bass were high up in very shallow water,less than 2feet. I was getting hits within 1 foot of the bank around wood. Had alot of misses but managed 2 small keepers after lots of casts. The coves I usually fish were cold & very muddy w/ all the runoff. The bass would not chase the jig or anything else if it was in the current. After about 2hrs of high power my batts were getting low. Tried the mud for a while throwing jigs, spinners, 4" Berklys & Sliders, but not even a hit. Tried Power Pro line on a spinning reel(20# test 6# diameter), It was very good line,a little better than Fusion IMO. Hope this ice age ends soon! Good luck,Dmann.
