No-Targeting Closures a Real Threat for Striped Bass Fishermen

Jan 15, 2025 | onthewater.com | John McMurray

Capt. McMurray is the owner of One More Cast Charters in Oceanside, NY. While there has been a lot going on with striped bass management over the last few years, I’ve only been tangentially involved. I no longer have a seat at the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC) table, and I’m no longer associated with any fisheries advocacy group. For the most part, that’s intentional.
Coldwater Cows: Late Season Stripers on Herring

Dec 9, 2024 | onthewater.com | John McMurray

It was December 16, 2001, and after a Scotch tasting at the Angler’s Club, I had fallen asleep (read: “passed out”) on the subway back to Rockaway. It was amazing I still had my wallet, not to mention my laptop, when I awoke somewhere in Brooklyn to my phone ringing. I tried to say hello, but my voice wasn’t yet working. “Where the hell are you?” said Capt. David Azar before I could speak. We were going to make one last go of it before pulling the boat and calling it a season.
The Best Striper Topwater Lures

Nov 8, 2024 | saltwatersportsman.com | John McMurray

Topwater striper lure bites come when you least expect it. You’re fishing seemingly dead water, casting to a sod bank, or some other structure. Then out of nowhere, KABOOM! Your topwater fishing lure disappears in a ball of white water. It is violent, savage and truly magical at the same time. In my 25 plus years of guiding anglers for striped bass, I have yet to see anyone that didn’t get excited about seeing a nice striper smash a topwater lure.

False albacore (little tunny) draw raves from mid-Atlantic and Northeast anglers for their spectacular surface hits and blistering runs. Adrian E. Gray In the early 1990s I got my first look. The wind honked out of the north on the first chilly day in September. It just felt fishy. Running toward the birds, I thought at first the boils were stripers.
Fly Fishing for Striped Bass

Sep 6, 2024 | saltwatersportsman.com | John McMurray

There are anglers who exclusively fly-fish for stripers. I’m not one of them. I love to fish plugs, even bait. But there’s something awesome about targeting striped bass on fly gear. Maybe it’s the challenge. Or perhaps it’s the excitement from moments like when you unfurl a perfect loop to land your fly in the path of a cruising fish and witness the striper’s predatory instincts take over, and suddenly it pounces.

Skerry / National Geographic Creative It was a slow summer at Hudson Canyon off New York, but we were headed out anyway, because you can’t catch tuna when you’re dry on the dock.
