Well at 2:19 pm today it will be officially Fall. Saturday was a rough one. NE wind which makes fishing difficult by itself. But add in 10 to 15 mph winds and it was definitely a grind. We managed to tuck up inside the river to get out of the wind. We found a few spot but not many and the bite was definitely slow. But we did find a couple keeper croaker. Roberto caught a 14 incher. That’s the biggest I have seen in quite a few years. The wind layer down some but not enough so we went to live lining. Wind and waves made it tough to position properly. But we gave it our best and was rewarded with a nice Striped Bass. Bottom fishing is slowing down with the cooler weather so we will be focusing mainly on Stripers until the winter closure. Now is a good time for jigging and chasing breakers. We also do trolling trips if that you like. We will still be live lining also but we will be buying our spot ahead of time. There will be additional charges for that but we will work it out with you ahead of time.

Cooler weather is in the air! Water temps have come done and the days are cooler! Striped bass are staring to transition to fall patterns. We have seen some very nice healthy Stripers the past few trips. Jigging structure has been productive and so has been live lining. Its not a home run right away as conditions have to be right for live lining. But we have been making it work. Bottom fishing is still decent. But the fish have moved a little deeper. Still some big jumbo spot still around tho. This weekend we had some Whiting show up and even a Flounder. Bottom fishing should be good for a while and Striper fishing will get better as the fall goes on. Birds are starting to work but not real consistent yet. But it is only a matter of time. November is when we usually see some Big migratory Stripers start to show back up. Its isn't a given as every season is different but you don't know if you don't go. If your looking to catch a monster Striped Bass late November thru March is the best time on the Chesapeake! Message us to setup your fishing adventure today! We trailer our boat to be as close to the fishing action as possible and give you more time fishing then running.

Here is a video of the top water action from Saturday’s trip. I absolutely love this style of fishing. You get to watch the strike and feel the hookup! Absolutely awesome. That fish was 26 1/2 inches!
