Striped bass tend to be found offshore in the cooler water. They can be targeted with both hard and soft plastic swimbaits and anchovies. When selecting swimbait colors, shad imitations are a good starting point. Channel catfish can also be caught well this time of year. Anchovies, nightcrawlers, and squid tend to attract bites. The best times to catch both striped bass and channel catfish are in the early morning hours and right before sunset. Special Regulations: The limit has been changed to unlimited striped bass of any size, 5 trout, and 15 crappie. For species not listed, or bodies of water without special regulations, refer to the statewide fishing regulations.
