Seasonal Activity Chart

Striped Bass
Cobb Island offers exceptional access to the Potomac River and the Chesapeake Bay, making it a prime location to intercept migrating striped bass. The spring and fall migrations are particularly productive, as stripers follow schools of menhaden and other baitfish into the area. Focus your efforts around structure like the bridge pilings and channel edges. Local knowledge is key; tides and current play a significant role in striper behavior. Pay close attention to water temperature, as stripers tend to move deeper or shallower depending on the thermocline. A practical tip: launch from the Cobb Island public ramp and head south towards the mouth of the Potomac to find the most consistent action. Remember to match your lure presentation to the prevalent forage, whether it's casting swimbaits or trolling umbrella rigs.
