Fishing guide

Striped Bass (Morone saxatilis) are perciform fish found all along the Atlantic coast. Loved by anglers for putting up a good fight, the species is of significant value as sporting fish and was widely introduced outside its native range. Striped Bass has a silvery body with long dark stripes running from the gills to the tail. The maximum recorded weight is 57 kg (125 lb). The average size is about 67–100 cm (2.2-3.3 ft) and 4.5-14.5 kg (10-32 lbs).

If you prefer to use natural baits, then the best way to catch Striped Bass would be to use Large Cutbait on a size #6/0 hook.

If you are more into artificial lures, you should go for some Crankbaits.

The most successful lure is Lemon Crankbait 2 m, #5/0.
