Striped Bass

Striped Bass fishing near Point Pleasant, Pennsylvania, offers a unique experience, blending freshwater influence with brackish conditions as you venture closer to the tidal Delaware River. The best time to target stripers here is during the spring and fall migrations, when they move upriver to spawn or feed. Look for them around structure like bridges, submerged rocks, and channel edges. A local tip: the area around the Route 32 bridge is a known hotspot. Pay attention to water temperature and clarity, as these factors greatly influence striper activity. Use natural presentations like live eels or cut bait, especially during periods of low visibility. The striped bass in this region tend to be opportunistic feeders, so don't be afraid to experiment with different lures and techniques to find what works best on any given day. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and bag limits before heading out.
