>>> Here's a question I have never gotten a great answer to: Are the schoolies that are around now resident (river) fish or have they come up from the bay/ocean? They are a good bit bigger than the typical fish you see at gravelly later in the year which I have always believed to be resident fish. What draws them to the cove this time of year? I assume bait but that is a long way to travel. I assume they aren't there to spawn like the early big fish.

Got a couple of slams this week--hickory shad, American shad, striped bass and white perch. I think until it gets too hot, we'll have several good days ahead of us. I did real well this past week up until the Thursday rains. Friday morning was tough with the water cool and murky, but my daugher and I managed a small mixed bag of hickories, a striper and an American.

Looking back through my notes, on May 18 last year in a morning before work, I took over a dozen hickories, several herring, 3 stripers and 3 white perch. On May 19, I got my first two Americans of the year along with 5 hickory shad, a herring and a 20" striper, all on a size 6 chartreuse sparkle grub with gold tail.
