They're there. I go up for a week every summer and fish most nights while I'm up there. I usually fish the beach because that's were we stay but the rocks would probably be more productive. From what I've seen and heard up there, a 20 lb fish is considered large, my biggest is about 18 lb. The nice thing is that I've never come across another fisherman at night and I fish two prominent pieces of structure. I wouldn't go up there just for the striper fishing, there are a lot of places that you could get to that are closer and more productive, especially for large fish. There were a lot of bunker in the gulf of maine last summer though and if that continues, more larger fish may start getting up there.
