The stripers and blues are about gone by early October in my area, headed South on their fall migration. A big storm or a hurricane will push them out even quicker.
I never enjoyed trolling very much. I've always fished flies for them both spring and late summer.

Default Grouse gun...

Here is a couple pictures of my 26" VH-16 that I spoke of early in this thread. The other is a Fox Sterlingworth that I just acquired. Sweet little 16 with 30" x-full both barrels at .034 6lbs-3oz and this will be a rooster gun. SXS Ohio

One of these years perhaps when I get to old and tired to climb thirty feet up a tree I'm gonna go to the bay for a week or so in December and or January with PLENTY warm clothes and fish however the captains say until I catch one striper 45 or so inches long .

Sadly, I couldn't hit a buffalo in the arrss at 20 paces with a sub-six pound double.....BUT if push came to shove and I found myself lathered in perspiration, swattin' skeeters in the Sept. grouse woods, either one of these would rate a most worthy companion.
