Croaker and perch bottom fishing in the spring and the fall. Get a couple small pieces of <insert bait type here, bloodworm, soft crab, shrimp, squid, cut spot, etc>, bait two hooks, drop the line over on some kind of structure, then start pulling them in two at a time.

My second favorite is pulling in trout from Schoolhouse Pond when no one else is catching anything.

Of course I like any type of fishing where I can enjoy the quiet and just soak up the sun and the fresh air. I could use some of that about now.

Like trolling for big rock in the spring, trolling, LTJ and LTT for them the rest of the season, bottom or drift fishing on summer evenings on the bay listening to the O's on the radio, and finally drifting for flounder in the back bays "down the oshun hun"

Offshore, plain and simple...
2nd is flounder, jigging, live bait, any way you have 'em

if we are talking about Stripers, it's LTJ for sure,

but there is always a good feeling of a spot getting nervous and getting devoured by a huge rock (especially when the spot have just barely arrived and the rock are still really big....

doesn't matter what I'm catching, if I'm catching, or where I'm catching...as long as I'm on the water it's great...if my kids are there, it's perfect!!!

I cut my teeth in the 80’s so monster blue fish are what I enjoy the most. Personal best is a 17.00lb blue caught off Annapolis. Plugging or chumming/

In recent years I have messed with off shore just enough to make me appreciate a good trolling spread. I have transferred my enthusiasm to trolling in the bay spring season. Each year I perfect my spread a little and constantly anticipate increasing the hook up ratio. I love running the big spread in the spring can't wait

Once the trolling calms down I enjoy bottom fishing and placing some meat on the hook. Chasing anything that wants a meal. Blue, Rock Flounder, Perch , Spot Spanish Mackerel, Sea bass, Croaker and Trout.

This Year I am going to try dabbling in the dark art of LTJ and more top water casting.

Many on this board tell me once I start LTJ all other forms of fishing move to the backburner. We will see.

I caught a few large rock on a smack It last year. It was a phenomenal experience having a fish explode and crush the top water..
