I currently reside on Ferry Point near Annapolis MD and fish the South River from the headwaters to the landmark Thomas Point Lighthouse. i prefer to fish in 3 foot of water or less and throw topwater plugs. Most nights the action is non stop with small resident striped bass under 18 inches. Throughout the spring and fall it is quite possible that your night will include a mid 20 to 32 inch migratory fish. I never keep fish, just pictures and this blog.

Pier fishing
Friday night I picked up a nice 20 across from the point near the bridge. Fished for about an hour mid day on Saturday. Hit several lake Riva spots with no action. Returned to the Marina around 6 PM. There was still a lot of boat traffic, so I decided to work the shallows of the east side of Marina Pier. After about 10 minutes had a nice slam from a barely legal 18. Sunday morning I worked the point from 7-8:30 with no action. Returned to marina around 1.30. Sun was high, breeze had picked up, 88 degrees and tons of boat traffic. Decided to work the shallows from pier once again. After about 15 minutes , caught a very healthy 20 incher in 1 foot of water. Fish jumped several times and put up quite a fight on my ultra lite Sirrus rod.
