Striped Bass
Chasing Striped Bass in the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis is a classic angling experience. The spring and fall migrations are legendary, as the stripers move up and down the bay. Focus your efforts around structure like the Bay Bridge pilings, channel edges, and points where rivers meet the bay. Live-lining spot or eels is a time-tested method, but trolling umbrella rigs or casting crankbaits can also be productive. Pay close attention to water temperature and salinity, as these factors influence striper behavior. A local's secret: try chumming near Podickory Point during the outgoing tide. Remember to check the Maryland DNR website for current regulations, as they can change frequently.
