Tiny bass locally spawned/
Was out fishing in the wind and the huge tide on sunday night. I was fishing a tidal outflow on the sakonnet river. I managed to catch the smallest striper of my life. It was six to eight inches long. The guy next to me had another that size. I went home and checked out the maryland dept of fish and game website. According to them stripers dont migrate till their second year of life. I looked at an age to length chart accorinding to the chart it takes a year to grow 12 inches. What gives does this mean that the two tiny bass I saw are local fish and not spawned in the big three the Chesapeake, the delaware or the hudson? I would be interested in explanations that anyone out there might have boy am I curious. Charlie
