I can't decide whether Rich was answering the question, or if he was saying:

"Can't talk now.  Spawning."

This time of year it the time to hit Susquehanna flats.   There are quite a few special regulations up there and you have to make sure you are not fishing the closed season or closed water, but this is "Big Striper" season.  In general, the good guides are usually booked solid for this time of year.

It's on my Bucket list.

I called several guides earlier in April about the flats, and most expressed that things were pretty empty there this year.  I'm currently exploring a trip to Long Island in October for the "fall frenzy" of bluefish/stripers that migrate from up north to warmer waters.  Anyone done on the fly?  Guide recommendations?
