The Striper fishery here in Nova scotia dosnt seem to be as good as the fishing your way however there are still some excellent oppertunities to be had....The bay of Fundy has some striper fishing form May until usually august.....Alot of people get them goin up rivers to spawn in the Minas Basin area.....I am on the water I live approx 1/2 hour north of halifax ther is a lake called porters lake which is half tidal.....very large stripers come up this very tiny river to spwan or feed up int he lake during summer..the past years tho the fishery has seemed very obsolete however the rumor is of a 63 pounder caught this year....I have focused much of my strieprs fishing after the landlock veriety whcih Im sure is very different than than the Tidal fishing however Iam slowly learnign a bit on the Tidal fish....the average fish around here seems to be no bigger than 5 or 6 pounds "schoolie sized fish" but there are also Mosters around jsut so hard to catch...the keeper size here i 26 1/2 inches and the DnR are very very strict about this. But through my understanding many peopel dont keep them anymore becasue of the slump we are in we are trying to get the population back up...
