Now that our wedding is in the rear view and sun finally cane out, my wife and I finally had some time to get out on the water. Unfortunately, 3 hours in Eastern Bay only produced a handful of shorts. Baitfish were everywhere, but there were no predators to be found. There was a large group of birds diving off in the distance, but that was short-lived. It was a gorgeous night, and with all the rain lately, I certainly can’t complain. Hopefully the bite improves this week.

Sorry you did not have the successful catching you were looking for. I fished in Eastern Bay first thing Sat morning and had a good bite in the shallows where I tried from about 7:00 to 9:30. However, I was fishing from a boat, which allowed me to travel longer distances to visit areas that I suspected would hold fish. I caught stripers on topwater on the northern shoreline of Eastern Bay and more stripers and even a small speck on the southern shoreline.

As I rode across the center of Eastern Bay, I found a large group of birds diving on bait. I caught a few stripers there, but they were small, so I kept moving. I have a sense that as the water temp is cooling off, fishing should pick up in Eastern Bay.John Veil
