Maryland Rockfish, Stripers from the Eastern Shore! - September 25, 2009

Look at what we caught today! We left Hoopers Island at around noon today in search of some striped bass on Maryland's Chesapeake Bay. At first, we had a strong northeast wind to contend with, making the boat cut and shear. However, after making a move, along with the wind falling out, we started catching these beautiful rockfish. These guys had their legal limit of Maryland rockfish within an hour of when they caught the first one! The one in the middle was 33 inches long, one of the longest we caught all summer! This was all done, fishing with live bait! They left the boat very happy, and we hope to see them again!

Chesapeake Bay Fishing Report - September 18, 2009

Another great day of fishing on the Chesapeake Bay! We left Hoopers Island bright and early this morning. The weather was great, with a faint breeze from the south and a moderate ebb current. We caught a bunch of bluefish on live bait and light tackle, moved, then caught some stripers! By the time it was over, we caught our legal limit of bluefish, and just a couple short of our legal limit of rockfish!

Maryland Rockfish Are Back! - September 15, 2009

The Chesapeake Bay stripers are back! We left Hoopers Island this morning at around 6am for another awesome day of fishing action! The Chesapeake Bay was beautiful today with a slight wind out of the west and a moderate ebb current, conducive to excellent fishing! We went to our first stop and caught some perfect, eating-sized bluefish, along with with four or five pretty striped bass. We then moved and caught some more rockfish and some blues, and before we knew it, we had our legal limit of Maryland stripers! The fish range between 18 and 24 inches in length, and we're catching them with light tackle and live bait! We expect the striper fishing to only improve from here on through the fall season.

Light Tackle Bluefish Action on the Chesapeake Bay - September 12, 2009

Today, we were back out on the Chesapeake Bay for another day of good fishing! We left Hoopers Island with a group of six at about 1:30 in the afternoon, and did some light tackle fishing for bluefish. We were using a combination of live bait and chum. Within four hours, we caught a legal limit! The bluefish were a bit on the small side, between 1 and 2 pounds, but perfect for the pan!

Bangin' Bluefish on the Chesapeake Bay - September 5, 2009

Today was a great day of fishing on the Chesapeake Bay! We left the dock at 7am. The weather was beautiful with just a faint north wind. As soon as we anchored up, we started catching one bluefish after another! We were using light tackle, spinning rods with live bait. These blues were 1-2 pounds each, not very big, but the perfect size for eating! Within three hours, we had our legal limit of them!
