I launched at first light Saturday to beautiful conditions at first light. It seemed like everyone else had their hearts set on bringing fish home, as every boat I saw headed towards the main stem of the Bay. I had this particular area completely to myself, with no other anglers in sight. My wife and I have decided to release all of our stripers this year, so I was perfectly fine fishing in a catch and release area. I started off throwing topwater and caught one short and one 21” striper. Once the sun got higher I switched to trolling. Fish were few and far between, just like last year, but I ended up with a couple more shorts and a 22”. I didn’t see many marks on the screen or any real surface activity. I decided to head back to the launch when the wind picked up. All in all it was a good day, though the relative lack of fish was disappointing.
