A "school" sized striped bass (morone saxatilis), also known as a "schoolie" is usually considered a smaller fish for the species...somewhere in the mid-20's in length, less than 8 or 9 lbs in weight.
Today I was "schooled"...managed 7 or 8 of these 22" length (measured) fish in the Grey morning light along the beautiful beach of Avon by the Sea, NJ.
Unfortunately, I arrived early (4:15AM) to also take in the splendid Perseid meteor shower. Alas, they did not "show up", being blocked by an unexpected layer of CLOUDS.
