Anyone want to fish SPSP Monday, 20th April?

[manlystanley]

I'll be fishing SPSP (Sandy point state park) Monday the 20th. If anyone want to join me, please drop me a line.

This is my first fishing attempt with my Kayak. I tried it at the local lake a few times. Since the rock fish are close to the surface this time of year, I'm thinking of using the following rig:

-- Use a 1/2 Oz weight with a 10/0 hook and 3-4 inch chunk of bunker. Then use a bobber to keep the hook only about 2-3 feet below the surface.

What do you guys think o this? What kid of rig will you guys be using??

Best Regards,
Stan

April 20th is a Saturday?

no bobber, also use whatever weight that will keep it on the bottom, you can never pre determine a weight , use as little as possible but enough to hold bottom. idk if you are shore fishing or yak fishing but if your from shore you want to get it out there a longg way. also you can use bloods, ive never got a big rock on bloods but i know some have. ive always use menhaeden this time of year. try both & good luck

Bring some blood worm with you. drift it along the bottom on a three way on a 1oz to 3oz sinker / a 2-3ft florocarbon leader to a circle

Yea, I don't think the bobber rig is the way to go. FF rig or bottom like others have said, 2 oz will probably do it. I know for a fact that there are nice fish around SPSP right now.

Thanks, I'll follow that advice. How deep should I go? I'm thinking about fishing the edge of the shipping channel?? I guess that is 15 -20 feet deep??

Also, sorry, I meant Monday 22nd.

Yep. I'm taking off from work about noon. Will be at the park around 1:00. I'll take my wife's cell phone. I'll send you a PM with it.
