ith the dog days of summer upon the North East, it was a steady dose of near 100 degree heat index and gully washer thunder storms for the best part of a ten day stretch. Heavy downpours on a daily basis turned Delaware ponds over repeatedly and left most un-fishable. A few anglers fished the [...]
ith Mother Nature giving us a steady diet of rain, anglers have been a little discouraged about this summers fishing experience. Murky water, pond bottoms being constantly turned over and low fish counts have been a few of the frustrations expressed by Eastern Marine customers. There have been a few silver linings in [...]
Over the past two weeks and for even longer we don’t seem to be able to break this cycle of rainy days and cooler than normal temperatures at night. The jet stream is holding a pattern that is usually typical when we have severe winters with unusually [...]

Some consistent temperatures and average night temps would really get the Striper bite in gear. Let’s hope for better weather fellas. [...]
