I received a first hand report from Richard White, Jr. on the monster pending new Virginia State Record striped bass caught yesterday. Way to go guys, what a sick catch! Check this fishing report out,
"We went out with every report not sounding good. We were on the Bada Bing with Capt. Tim Cannon from Pungo and I was mating from Chesapeake.
My father and brother-n-law drove down Fri morning from Brentsville, VA. We had good markings of bait of off Cape Henry but the bite was very slow. We caught one dog shark and a couple of hours later we had a rod double down with dead weight pulling. There was not much of any head shaking going on and when Cary was about to wear out then we got color and he broke the surface and the head looked like he was going to ...Fishing Forums - Over 60,010 Registered Anglers

Maryland Fishing Reports sponsored by Solomon's Charter Captain's Association. Book a trip and catch BIG striped bass here.
The focus for Maryland anglers is now primarily freshwater fishing, and the fishing shows and sales now underway. The Pocomoke River has given up yellow perch, crappie and pickerel, while anglers braving the elements on the Potomac have located a few nice bass, both smallmouth and largemouth, and an occasional tiger muskie.

So far in this series we’ve covered a high level overview of light tackle fishing for striped bass, in Parts 2 and 3 we went into detail about light tackle spinning and bait-casting rods, in part 4 and 5 we covered spinning and bait-casting reels. We’re almost ready to get out on the water and talk about where we look to find striped bass, but before we do that we need to cover knots and then once we know how to attach lures to the line and join leaders, we’ll talk about lures and then we’re going striped bass fishing.
There are many different fishing knots to choose from, all of which have ...
Awesome! Epic! Amazing! Incredible fishing along the Virginia coastline continues to produce staggering numbers of immense fish, including stripers to more than 40 pounds and monster bluefin tuna, like this 262 pounder caught by 16-year Hunter Southall on the 24-foot Albemarle Special Kate only 2 miles off Virginia Beach.
At times, the numbers and sizes of fish caught have boggled the mind! Anglers in Virginia are enjoying incredible action with big striped bass to more than 50 pounds, and also bluefin tuna to well over 300 pounds. All well within 3 miles of the beach along the ...
By Lenny Rudow. Does it seem like the big sportfishers always come back to the dock with more fish than the small, trailerable boats have in the box? Sure it does—those guys on the 50-footers have some serious advantages over you and I in our center console and cuddy cabin boats. But that doesn’t mean you can’t hang with the big dogs when you’re hunting tuna, billfish and other pelagics. Modern teasers give the little guy the ability to draw in fish just like the diesel boats, if you know which to run, when to run them, and how to use them to ...

I always look forward to Fall in the Chesapeake Bay region so that I can hunt the big Stripers that swim through out the Chesapeake and Mid Atlantic with the fly rod. Often times when I talk to anglers and mention the big striped bass that we catch this time of year they always appear amazed when they ask how we caught them and I explain that we caught them on the fly rod. When I tell them they can do it too and show them the flies they ...
Fishing from Maine to New Jersey is increasingly heating up with each passing day. Striped bass are making their way up the coast and we have a report from Maine this week with some hot striper action. New York striper fishing on the flats and bays has been wide open. The Rhode Island area is waiting on the arrival of the squid which should happen any day. Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard striper fishing has been excellent as well. Tuna fishing in New Jersey and New York has been sweet when anglers have been able to make it out. Did you know striped bass eat turtles? Capt. Dave Blinken from North Flats Guiding found that out this week with a picture to prove it. Check the full northeast fishing report for all the details.

In part 1 of this kayak fishing article series I covered the three styles of kayaks available to the angler. The only other consideration would be whether you wanted an alternative propulsion method. Several boats on the market now come available with a “peddling” type of system to move the kayak. These are great for keeping your hands basically free to fish and can help you cover a lot of water quicker with less fatigue because now you are using the largest muscles in your body, your legs. It is a good ...

Awww, shucks! Winter’s closing in, and you need to safely stow your fishing machine for the season. Bummer. But make sure you do this job, and get it done right. Otherwise, when spring rolls around you might be spending your cash on big repair bills, instead of umbrella rigs and trolling rods.
ENGINES – Obviously, the engine is the most important part of any boat to winterize. If you have an outboard, you’re lucky: simply tilt it down and it’ll drain completely. There is NO NEED to run anti-freeze through an outboard, and any yard that says different is ...
Before my time in the 1960's and just about when I could walk in the 1970's the Dixie Jet Spoon™ became a legendary lure because of its ability to catch fish from the clear waters of ponds, lakes, streams and oceans. But, for whatever reason the original manufacturer stopped producing this fish catching lure in the 70's, creating a void that forced anglers and collectors to search throughout North America, paying up to $100 for the few remaining Dixie Jets that can be found if you keep a good eye on ...
Fishing is slow on the N.C. Coast right now, but the occasional bluefin is being caught. Read more to find out when and where these tuna are being caught ...
