First off, let's talk about the tides. For Fleet Point, you're looking at a high tide at 2:32 AM and another at 2:54 PM, with low tides at 8:41 AM and 9:33 PM. The water levels are relatively mild, with highs around 0.33 meters (1.08 feet) and lows just above zero[2].
The weather has been quite chilly lately, especially after the recent cold front, which has dropped the water temperatures to around 44 to 46 degrees Fahrenheit inshore. This cold snap has triggered the migratory striped bass to start moving in, making for some exciting fishing[3].
Sunrise today is at 7:16 AM, and sunset will be at 4:48 PM, giving you a good window to get out on the water.
Fish activity has been robust, especially with the bluefin tuna bite still active, though it's been affected by the weather. Yesterday, anglers caught some impressive bluefin, with reports of 150-pound class fish being landed offshore. However, when the bluefin weren't cooperating, anglers found success with inshore striped bass. There was a significant bass blitz, with every cast yielding multiple stripers, all 35 inches or bigger[3].
For lures and bait, you'll want to use what works best for the species you're targeting. For striped bass, spoons, plugs, and live bait like eels or bunker are highly effective. If you're after bluefin tuna, trolling with large lures or using chunk bait can be productive. For other species like sea bass and flounder, jigs and squid or shrimp bait are good choices[4].
Some hot spots to consider include the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel, which is known for its sea bass, flounder, and even occasional catches of unique fish like angel sharks. The Lynnhaven Inlet and areas around Norfolk are also great for catching a variety of species, including striped bass and bluefish[1][4].
So, bundle up, check your gear, and get ready for a day of fishing in the Chesapeake Bay. The cold weather might be a bit uncomfortable, but the fish are definitely active and ready to be caught.
