Catching BIG Striped Bass From The Shore With Bait. How To Chunk for Stripers

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ม.ค. 2025
  • Chunking is by far my favorite way to target big striped bass from the rocks, and it is definitely becoming less popular every year. I've been able to get some fish in the mid-upper 30 pound class this year on the chunks during the daytime, and I am confident that I will soon be getting even bigger fish in the nighttime hours with that sweet sweet bunker.

    When I fish from the dock at Wetherill Park, I always bait my hooks with one inch thick cuts of menhaden. If I'm going for really big stripers and blues, I'll use the head too.

    Great video! Man I should have been chunken! I've lost a small fortune sacrificing lures to the blues. After a hookup the school would attack the leader, swivel or even a knot if I tied leader to braid. They're nasty. I love the trashman vedeo! Instead of IDing fresh bunka by blood your supposed to taste test with your tongue tip!

    • @Fish-RI

    When you cast your weight and bait out there, do you keep the line tight when you're waiting for a fish to pick of the bait or do you leave some slack?
