Reports and Expert Articles

Cool Crisp Mornings Mean Aggressive Stiped Bass

October 11, 2022

We had a fierce top water bite this morning. Fish up to 25" were attacking anything that got close to them. After catching and releasing a lot of fish on top water we switched to the flyrod and had just as much success. This is a great time of year for fly fishermen to knock off there personal best Stiped Bass.

Fall Fishing Has Arrived!

October 7, 2022

October brings cooling water temperatures which puts the Stiped Bass into a feeding frenzy to fatten up for winter. So far the fall bite has not disappointed, great quality fish ranging from 18 to 30 inches have been caught on light tackle and fly rod this week. Top water poppers have been on fire at first light then we have been transitioning into crank baits and Jigs later in the day. Don't miss out on this time of year to knock off one of the Chesapeake Bays greatest fish off your bucket list!
