Posted on March 28, 2019 Raritan Bay stripers were in perfect condition It occurred to me after Monday s wild light tackle action on Chuck Many s Ty Man from Highlands, which produced 207 short stripers up to 26 inches in the back of Raritan Bay, that there wasn t a single fish that didn t look healthy. There wasn t a single mark or any sort of flaw on those fish, though I was surprised to see sea lice on a couple.
At Seaside Park, Betty Nick s Tackle reported lots of small stripers were caught over the weekend in the back bay. Yesterday was a blowout with that northeast wind.
