Stripers Migrate - Where They Are Now
Posted March 10, 2010.
Most of the migrating striped bass are still in the deeper waters off of the Virginia and North Carolina coasts, where they spend the winter months. However some have begun to move into the Chesapeake Bay. As the water warms they will move into the numerous rivers that flow into the Bay to spawn.
Holdovers and schoolies will start to bite in the back bays in areas where the sun warms the water over dark mud bottoms. See Spring Stripers
