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.

Happy New Year
Well winter fishing is in full swing, which is a bit like fishing in a bathtub knowing full well it contains no fish. There have been 25 perfect topwater days since my last post and I fished every one. We have had quite a few days above 50 and even 60 today. Global warming does have some upside. Alas, the topwater gods have not blessed me. The total for the 25 days was 2 stripers and one yellow perch. All caught on small Kastmaster. Tonights catch of a massive 12 incher was important for several reasons...1. It was my first January Striper ever. 2. It gives me hope that TW could still work in winter.
