stripers in the York River: York, ME
 

while driving past the York River (Sewall's Bridge) lately, seemed to be some stripers chasing bait in the shallows.
has anyone else heard of a year round population in this area? if so, has anyone managed to catch one. thinking this may be a nice, definately cold, way to pass the winter.

I can't speak for the York River, but many rivers and estuaries will hold a population of winter holdovers. Just ask GotStripers. He's the king of winter holdover Striper fishing.:D Hard core man.
I like to do my holdover on the couch in the winter months:laughs: :smash:

Talked to a friend of mine who just bought a place in York. He said he was talking to a game warden up there who told him that they do hold over there for the winter......Bundle up

it's me
 

hey dadfisherman, it's me das fisch

you need to pick one name and stick w/ it.

I am headed up that way next week...guess I am going to have to hide a fishing rod and some plugs in the truck!!!:uhuh: It is supposed to be a getaway with FishChick and she might not want me doing any fishing...it is supposed to be a romantic, just the two of us and no fishing trip!!!:love: Oh well....she will get over it!!!:laugha:

Is there a Nuke plant up there ?

Warm water will get them to stick around.

Told you the Fall fishing wasn't over ;)

What's more Romantic than a Double Hook-up. Rods bent in unison as the sun rises over the river. I get all verklempt just thinking about it

no nuke
 

there's no nuke plant, that's 30 miles south and no industry on the river, just residential for the most part.
