Train Bridge Fishing


As some of you might know, some of the best fishing spots are underneath ye ole' Amtrak trails. Now of course, we aren't going to tell you which bridges are best, but you can see from this video that you will definitely catch some wild 'uns in the vicinity of a train bridge. These fish are particuarly naughty and especially greedy when the tide is changing and they will attack pretty much anything until they figure out that you are fishing. Then they stop. This usually happens after catching about three fish. Then they suddenly get smart and are nowhere to be found. This is usually a good time to go get some food or paint your toenails.
In this video, you will notice that I'm holding the fish out with my thumb in its mouth. This is so that I will develop a condition that Caleb and I like to call "Striper Scars." The stripers have teeny teeny things that I guess might be considered teeth. They are just sharp enough to scrape you and boy, does it feel good! Plus, they leave a great little mark on your thumb that you can show off the next day at work.
