Sedge, in the name of SCIENCE!

O.K., so according my fishing log,on 3/13/12 and 3/19/12 Steve and I fished the same area of the Sedge Islands in Barnegat Bay. This is where we do most of our fishing, and in the fall were doing really well there with eels. So, we want to find out when the Striped Bass show up in early spring in the same area. It's almost as though we have to ignore the fact that we like to catch fish, and just fish for a long time with all lure, in all phases of the tide, in light and in the dark, to prove that there are or are not fish at this spot. On 3/13/12 one theory was that there was no bait visible in the water, so why would there be fish. However on 3/19/12 there was plenty of small bait....
