I heard a few weeks ago someone caught a 51" Striper at the Derby dam. He said he fished ther 18 days with plugs with not a hit and then that!

| Tonight when I went fishing I saw schoolies running where I fish, but did not catch. They were out of range. |

Late August? Dude, that's the hardest time to find fish. You can surfcast anywhere then but if you aren't fishing the right tide well after dark in the right place you wont catch. I just learned where to find em myself after a long time trying to figure it out. I suggest you call some bait shops in the areas you will be traveling through to get the general idea.

| does anyone fish in Norwalk? that is the only place i have fished in 4 or 5 years. I am trying to talk my PIA (wife) into trying some new areas but she rather just sit down there. I really think my buddy shouldtell her to open up and broden her herizons or him and I should just go and further are area what do you guess suggest? I love fishing with her and my daughter but all they want is Norwalk |

Hi,
Try going out to the Norwalk Islands -> Beautiful area and there's a ferry that goes out to the islands!
Worth the ride just to check it out!
Also you could go to Stony Brook Village, NY -> Short distance south of Norwalk.
Village is beautiful + small shops/resturants, etc.etc.
Now that is well worth a ride!
You can check both out on line.
