15 DC Rockfish (4-29-10) + PICS
Bob Morgan met me at Gravely Point this morning at 5:15 and we headed upriver. Brought along some fresh frozen herring.............and glad I did. No herring were to be found in the river today. We started out with a few catfish, but then the stripers started to cooperate. Final talley was 13 catfish up to 8 pounds, 15 rockfish up to 25.5", and 3 shad. Here are the PICS of some of the fish.
One of the shad..............
It was a great morning out on the water.

Nice!
I gather that you are cutting the bait into chunks? How big of chunks do you use for stripers? What type of rigs do you use? Bottom rigs with rubber bands?

That's why I need educated! Up until this spring I would have never tried to fish at Fletcher's or for any of those species.
