Seasonal Activity Chart
Striped Bass
Rehoboth Beach offers excellent opportunities to target Striped Bass in the Delaware Bay and along the Atlantic coastline. Spring and fall migrations are prime times, as stripers follow schools of bunker and other baitfish. Focus your efforts around the Indian River Inlet and the shallow waters of the bay. Live eels or bunker chunks fished on the bottom are classic and effective, especially near the inlet during strong tides. Trolling umbrella rigs can also produce results. Be mindful of size and creel limits, as regulations are strictly enforced. A local's secret: Access to the Indian River Inlet can get crowded, especially on weekends. Consider fishing during the week or exploring less-trafficked areas north or south of the inlet along the beach.
