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.

Long overdue update
Have fished a lot this summer, mostly the river, but quite a few trips out to Thomas Point. Since this is a topwater blog, there really has not been much to report. The river is loaded with baitfish this year and tons of 1 year old dinks. 2 and 3 year old fish have started to move in, but have been very tough for TW. I have been throwing mostly soft plastics. Not exactly what I would prefer, but the only game in town. This weekend I picked up several keeper sized rock near the bridge and tonight I finally had a nice topwater slam that filled the seat(my measure for keeper size). I have picked a quite a few White Perch on plugs and even had a catfish hit a chug bug a few nights ago.
