Weather Calms Down; Fishing Lights Up

 It was back to blitz-like conditions today as I found big numbers of stripers and hickory shad feeding on acres and acres of bay anchovies. At times the water was black with bait moving southward and the predators were hitting them from below while the birds were hitting the bait from above. I landed big numbers of schoolies today up to 25 inches.  The hot lure was a half ounce homemade bucktail jig spiced with a white, Bass Pro, triple ripple curly tail. This hot action cones after a week of very rough water and windy conditions that messed up the water and slowed the fishing considerably.  Looks like we are back in business with a stretch of storm free weather coming up.
