It’s hard to find anything positive to say or even escape the 24 -7 deluge of bad news of this global pandemic. With such uncertainty, suffering and worry weaved into every hour of the day I wasn’t sure [ and still not] if sending a fishing report out was a good idea but if it helps in anyway as maybe a distraction even for a few people than maybe it’s okay?

The beginning of every new fishing season has always been so exciting to get back out on the water. This season I cherish even more than ever before for obvious reasons. Although living at the shore and it’s salty air, nothing compares to actually taking deep cleansing breaths while on the water.

Presently the back bay striped bass fishing has really been very rewarding with stripers ranging in sizes 14″ – 27″ with more bigger fish joining the ranks almost daily. We are utilizing light spinning tackle while employing various artificial presentations.

Wishing everyone health and safety until we get through this.
