"That's When It's Striper Time"
By Joe Cermele
Labor Day might mark the figurative end of summer, but I always find it funny that where I live in the Northeast, Mother Nature has a habit of flicking off the summer switch immediately after Labor Day, too. I swear it could be 90 degrees every day the week before, then suddenly it's fall. The slight nip in the air here has me itching for fish. In fact, I sadly turned down a surf trip that already produced some decent stripers for a buddy of mine. But that's OK. There's plenty of time, and nothing is getting me more in the mood for fall than this wicked vintage video I thought you'd enjoy. My favorite line is when the narrator says of a 20-pounder reeled in, "this will lower momma's raised eyebrow and brighten her skeptical eye when our surfcaster stumbles home from a dawn 'til midnight campaign on the beach." I wished sportsmen still talked like that.

"this will lower momma's raised eyebrow and brighten her skeptical eye when our surfcaster stumbles home from a dawn 'til midnight campaign on the beach." - I'll take a pic of any fish caught just to accomplish the same.
You should make a hook shots episode on surf fishing. I'd be interested to see how you do it. Every once in a blue moon when I actually make it out to the coast I'm too intimidated to even try it.
Great video Joe. Thanks for sharing.
This ones a back breaker!!! AWESOME!
Can't wait. Love surf fishing. Don't always catch fish, but often enough to make it interesting.
