Harry, just be prepared, you will primarily encounter juveniles this time of year - I actually caught one yesterday while fishing for smallmouth on the Rappahanock. They are the offspring of fish that spawned this year, and that is why they are in fresh water. Adult striped bass on the east coast migrate huge distances along the coast, with rare pockets of holdovers here and there. Right now the majority of adult fish are on their summer feeding grounds around Rhode Island and Long Island, etc. Around here we can intercept them as they head towards their wintering grounds in North Carolina when they stop over to feed in the Chesapeake Bay. If you want to talk to someone who has the migration memorized, Richie at Urban Angler will be more than willing to bend your ear.
