My son who is a die hard fishing fanatic, and is constantly watching Salt Strong videos, he is watching one on Sheepshead and I over hear your name! Imagine my surprise! I nearly lost it! Congratulations! I had been a Rich Natoli fan since our ‘Park avenue days’. And now my son can be a fan too!

If you ever find yourself in the Tampa Area, give me a ring!

Belated welcome to SS Rich! I live just outside DC and primarily fish in the tidal Potomac, Rappahanock and Chesapeake Bay near Crisfield. It’s great to have someone with your skill set focusing on stripers and even weakfish (a.k.a. gray trout). I’m just starting to get caught up on your videos so will be making additional belated comments. 🙂

Glad to see you joining the team. I live in SC. I love to hear about and learn about different species, techniques, etc. even if I’m not targeting those waters (Yet). The Salt Strong content has been fairly “Florida-centric” but it’s great to see coaches farther up the east coast. You have a great demeanor and I look forward to seeing your videos.

Thank you Rutledge! I am extremely excited to add more range into the content for Salt Strong Insiders. Over the years I have found a wealth of information provided by the southern coaches that translated directly to the mid-Atlantic and northeast. I hope to do the same.

Welcome Rich. I’m looking forward to your area fishing tips. Live in Daytona Beach but grew up fishing NE in Margate, NJ .Late 1960’s and 70’s. Recently saw your Youtube channel “Grinding out some Big Sheepshead” never caught one back then; knew about Sheepshead Bay NY but no fish. Have to get back up. looking forward to Tautog report; used heavy handline between rocks on jetties as a kid. All the Best to you. will subscibe Fat Dad Fishing.

Thanks James. If you make it back up to the area let me know. Would love to get on the water with you. I do a lot of fishing in the Margate area. I will be doing plenty of Tautog reports..you can count on that!

Rich, welcome to the family. I used to live in Maryland and light tackle fished up and down the Mid-Atlantic area both in the Chesapeake Bay and nearshore/offshore (Mostly out of Chincoteague, VA). The CBBT (Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel) at the mouth of the bay is one of my favorite areas of all time.

Are you going to be kayak fishing in the winter, or just in the spring/summer/fall?

Right now (Mid October) should be a great time to go out “Mid-Bay” and look for the stripers, bluefish, spanish, and weakfish going after baitballs of Bay anchovies, Silversides, Bunker, etc.

If only I had Z-Man Jerk ShadZ in the Slam Shady color… it would’ve save a lot of money on soft plastics 😉

Thank you Rod! I will be kayak fishing 12 months out of the year. I am hoping to get to the mid to upper bay area next week depending on the wind forecasts. And good idea on the Jerk ShadZ in Slam Shady!

In the mid-bay area the “runners and gunners” will make it very difficult for fishing out of a kayak, plus throw in 2′ waves and boat wakes. The Choptank River and Little Choptank River areas should offer you a wide range of protected fishing areas on the Eastern shore for going out in a kayak… hope you find ’em.

If very accustomed to the runners and gunners…and even those that intentionally try to wave the kayaks. Holiday weekends along the NJ coast can be brutal. I’m already planning a trip to the Choptank. Thanks for the heads-up!

Take a look at Slaughter Creek Marina off the Little Choptank… hope the winds cooperate.

Welcome aboard Rich. Congrats ! Glad you are here supporting these areas. With being in MD, we kind of felt like that ugly duckling of the Salt Strong community where we weren’t the niche’ of where Salt Strong was focused. I followed John Skinner before finding Salt Strong since he focused on the same species in our area. There are a number of other local resources I follow for fishing information as well. I’m looking forward to your tips and videos in our area.
