Striped bass fishing is picking up when the weather cooperates. Some river fishermen have weighed in stripers pushing four to five pounds. Try the coves with good brush cover.

High winds have kept fishermen at bay. The rest of the week is looking warm again. Fishing for bass, both large and small, has been good on warm days. Shad remain tough to come by and the stripers haven’t been biting on much else. Water temperatures are still fairly cold, so black bass spawning season still isn't completely underway.
