At Captree Bait and Tackle, I heard the striped bass action was phenomenal this past week with anglers fishing the surf and boats scoring well on keepers, schoolies and well over slot fish. Diamond Jigs and bunker have been the main options for a great day. The weekend did slow up a bit, but anglers still found bass.

Mike from Captree Bait and Tackle checked in and said he was happy to host the Fred Golofaro Memorial South Shore Classic this past weekend. The annual event brought anglers together for another weekend of fall surf fishing in memory of the late Fisherman editor. The winning striped bass measured an impressive 41 inches, highlighting the quality of fish still moving along the South Shore beaches. Mike thanked everyone who participated and helped make the event a success.

At Captree Bait and Tackle, I heard early on in the Fred Golofaro Memorial South Shore Fishing Classic, the top dog was a nice 41-inch bass caught on a Diamond Jig. As for boaters, there is a lot of blackfish action in the bay and ocean. There are still some larger bass in the ocean, but you definitely have to locate bait – sand eels or bunker before you find fish.
