I will be spending the weekend of Thanksgiving at Sea Isle on the North end of Cape May, NJ. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with that area and could give me some guidance. I assume that the Stripers that are leaving the New England Coast should be there waiting for my arrival.
Jed. I fish on the Delaware Bay side of NJ. But folks along the coast between AC and the Cape are in the middle of some of the most active sripper fishing of the season. goodluck FB.
You’ll wanna fish the north side of Townends Inlet at the top of the of outgoing tide. Fish the beach under the bridge. Crease flies, Eel patterns, and decievers all taking fish. Lots of short bass but very fun. You gotta catch it just right.
Townsends connects Sea Isle City and Avalon. Good Luck
I’ll be there early in the AM as that is the only time I have free. I’ll have to check the tide charts and see if I’m lucky or not. Either way fishing is better than not. Thanks for the info.
I’m a fool, weather probably should but likely won’t stop me. I expect I will be Saturday there from about 6:00 ~ 6:30 to 8:30 ~ 9:00 depending on the bite of the weather and the bite of the fish.
I’ll keep an eye out for another fool fly fishing

I fished the inlet in the AM as I said. It was a beautiful morning and I was fish jumping, but did not hook up. I had a great time. WIsh you ALLcould have been there.
