Open Water Jigging, some great fish!
I haven’t fished for two days so don’t have any really fresh information. What I know is the Specks just haven’t made it up here and I don’t think many survived the last two winters. Sad but a natural occurance and they will be back. Stripers are still inhabiting the shallow water of the eastern shore islands. The majority of fish I believe are in the open bay and north of solomons. The power plant is still producing fish early in the morning. Mayworms should be on their last dance and about done. Stripers have been feeding at night on them….during the day they can be found in deep water and not very aggressive. I think that is about to change. When fish are located Bust’m baits loaded on an ounce or so work great. I’ve been working them aggressively through schools drawing what I believe to be reaction strikes……the fish have been really nice!
Great fish to be had on light tackle!
