Jim Hutchinson Jr. reports the ASMFC has voted 13-3 to retain status quo regulations for striped bass for this season while also forming a working group to study severely reduced spawning results in Chesapeake Bay.
The weather may be good enough for fishing once again as there’s a shift from easterly winds to a calming northwester.
Capt. Ron Santee had expected to get started again on Sunday, but will also try to get out for stripers with his Fishermen from Atlantic Highlands at 7 a.m. Saturday , West winds at 25-30 knots should quickly knock down the east seas up to 9 feet which have been running this week. It will still be rough, but that’s often best for a hot fall striper bite.
