with the warmer temps most people are switching from stripers to trout and flounder... Releasing rock into warmer water they sometime's don't do very well...
15 days untill trout season opens back up. I might have to get off my butt and start fishing again. I haven't been out on the water in a few weeks.

I know stripers on the Roanoke are becoming less popular as the summer moves in but I didn't get the time to fish for them further up river in April-May and kinda wanted one last go at them. I never fished for them during the migration back to the sound but it has to be good if you can mark their location in the river. Thanks for chiming in though..

Haven't been in a few weeks but everybody I have talked to around Plymouth says nobody's been catching. Friend of mine lives on a boat by the landing and stays pretty much on top of things. The water conditions have kept me off of the water lately. Too much water coming from the dam I think. Things should improve this week though.

It's changing right now. Go to http://www.ncwildlife.org/Fishing/L.../CoastalRiversFisheriesReports/053113_RR.aspx
Look at the river conditions. Good things are going to happen. Don't know how the stripers will react to the falling water, but everything else should pick up rapidly. I'm getting the boat ready.
