Striper Caught Under Sail

Type: Chesapeake
Region: Upper Bay
Location: Love Point

Sunday, May 19, 4pm - 30" striper caught on 6 oz. white tandem rig, trolling under sail! We trim the sails to go about 2.1-3.2 knots, no motor! That day we were trolling east and west along the channel edge at a 35'-45' drop off at Love Point. Fish caught in about 15-18' at depth of 42', going about 2.7 knots. We are a racing boat that also has a love for fishing, while attempting to use the least gas of any fishing boat in the Bay! We caught five fish that day, released three and kept two.
