2012 Chesapeake Bay Trophy Striped Bass Season
April 23-28, 2012
This week featured a lot of fishing and great fun aboard the Sawyer during the 2012 spring trophy striped bass season. The picture above shows what happened on Monday, as our crew was quick to land their legal limit of Chesapeake Bay striped bass. In spite of forecasts over the weekend calling for foul weather that almost led to us losing the charter for the day, the weather turned out to be just fine with relatively calm seas. Within about three hours, this group of nine landed their legal limit of Chesapeake Bay rockfish.
Above, you see what happened on our Tuesday charter, as this gang of six anglers also limited out in short order. In fact, these guys reached their quota on trophy Maryland stripers before we could even get all of our lines out. They were so happy with their trip that they have already booked one for next year.
The picture above shows three generations of fishermen who fished with us on Wednesday morning. They also quickly landed their limit while trolling. The weather was absolutely gorgeous, which is quite normal for these guys who have been fishing with us for many, many years now.
Above, you can see the results of our Wednesday afternoon charter. These guys have also been fishing with us for well over a decade. They were rewarded today with beautiful weather and a very nice catch of Chesapeake Bay stripers. These rockfish were mostly in the mid to upper 30s in length, with a couple of them over 40 inches. They have also reserved their spots for next spring.
On Thursday, it was more of the same, as the crew pictured above landed their legal limit by 8:30am, the fastest they have ever done so in the many years that they have fished with us. These were also some very nice fish, with some of them carrying sea lice, which may indicate an extended spring season similar to that of last year.
Above, you can see what happened on our Thursday afternoon charter. These guys were the same fellows who fished with us on the previous day, and again, they went home with a nice catch. We can't wait to see these guys again next year!
After being stymied on Friday by foul weather, we were back at it on Saturday, with exceptional results once again. This crew of six anglers were quick to land their legal quota of Maryland rockfish. These fish also had some pretty good size. They have already reserved two dates with us for next spring!
This was a great week of Chesapeake Bay charter fishing action! Stay tuned to this blog or http://www.sawyercharters.com for more updates and information.

2012 Chesapeake Bay Fishing Is Underway!!
April 21, 2012
2012 is off to an excellent start here at Sawyer Charters!
The guys pictured above have been fishing with us for a number of years, and they always seem to come away with a nice catch. As you can see, today was no different. Within two hours, this gang had wrapped up their legal limit of Chesapeake Bay striped bass! The bite was red hot as soon as we arrived at the fishing grounds. In fact, we had our limit before we could get all of our lines out!
Above, you can see what happened during our afternoon trip. We had to wait the fish out for a while, but once we found the fish and they decided to bite, it did not take long for this crew to come away with a very nice catch on the Chesapeake Bay. This is their first time fishing with us on the Chesapeake, and we look forward to seeing them again soon!

Chesapeake Bay Charter Fishing
August 23, 2011
We heard that there was some kind of earthquake that happened today, but we never noticed it. While everyone on shore was trying to find something to hold on to, we were out on one of our world-famous Chesapeake Bay fishing charters, hunting for striped bass. As you can see from the above picture, it was another successful day, as this crew limited out on Maryland rockfish in pretty short order. They did this by fishing with live bait, using light tackle and spinning reels. After that, we did some bottom fishing for white perch, which are great to eat.
This was our first Chesapeake Bay charter fishing trip in almost two weeks, and it feels great to be back out on the water. We have a bunch of available dates, so if you're thinking about doing some striper fishing, don't hesitate to call us at (410) 397-3743!

The excellent Chesapeake Bay striped bass fishing conditions continued through the weekend, as the group in the above picture, like the ones that came before it, limited out on rockfish. They did so in very short order, after spending the first couple of hours during the trip catching live bait. They even had fun doing that.

Chesapeake Bay Striped Bass Fishing
July 22-26, 2011
The last several days featured more of the same Chesapeake Bay fishing action aboard the Sawyer, action that culminates in a full legal limit of Maryland rockfish.
We are still catching these stripers using live spot fish for bait, in a process that is more popularly known as live-lining. This can be the most challenging, yet most exciting way of fishing for striped bass.
These fish generally range anywhere from 18 to 28 inches, with some of them more than 30 inches in length, making for great action on a spinning reel!
We expect this fishing to remain good in the days to come. If you would like to reserve a date, give us a call at (410) 397-3743.

Maryland Charter Fishing Report
July 13-17, 2011
This past week featured yet more excitement on the Chesapeake Bay, marked by nice weather, and excellent Maryland striper fishing.
Right now, our Chesapeake Bay fishing charters feature bottom fishing for spot fish that are used for live bait, followed by free-spooling those fish for striped bass. From the pictures in this post, you can see that we've been rather successful, catching our legal limits most of the time. Keep in mind that not everyone in the pictures wanted to hold up two fish :).
We expect the Maryland striper fishing action to remain good in the foreseeable future. We have plenty of open dates if you want to reserve your very own fishing charter.
Just give us a call at (410) 397-3743, or visit our website at sawyercharters.com .
