Fishing is fair to good.
Good numbers of 2-3 lb stripers, and a few to 6 lbs, are being caught in Frank's Tract. Repetitive casts of 70' plus are most effective. This week and next week are typically the peak of the season. Fish Frank's Tract, Mildred Island, Sherman Island, and Big Break. Expect the weekends to be crowded.
