サマリー
あらすじ・解説
As we step into November, the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia is offering some exciting fishing opportunities. Here’s a rundown of what you can expect today.
### Weather and Tides
The weather is looking pleasant with partly cloudy skies and a high of around 65 degrees Fahrenheit. The tides are crucial, and today you can expect a high tide at approximately 10:30 AM and a low tide at around 4:30 PM. These tidal changes can significantly affect fish activity.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 6:54 AM, and sunset will be at 5:04 PM, giving you ample daylight to cast your lines.
### Fish Activity
October's vibrant fall fishing season is still in full swing, and November is expected to continue this trend. Striped bass, which reopened on October 4th, are actively biting in the tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay. Speckled trout and puppy drum are also highly active, particularly inside Lynnhaven Inlet. Flounder fishing has been yielding good results, and sheepshead, tautog, and red drum are abundant around the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel area.
### Catches
Yesterday, anglers reported catching a mix of striped bass, speckled trout, puppy drum, and flounder. The Virginia Beach Pier was a hotspot, with catches including puppy drum, trout, spot, small croaker, and flounder.
### Best Lures and Bait
For those using lures, jigs with paddle tails or popping corks with shrimp lures are excellent options. Jerkbaits and Mirr-o-lures are often the top choice for enticing trout, drum, and rockfish. Topwater baits are also highly effective for these species.
When it comes to bait, fresh shrimp is currently the bait of choice, especially when used on standard two-wire bottom rigs. Bloodworms, fishbites, and shrimp are also popular and effective.
### Hot Spots
The Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel area remains a hotspot for diversity in catches, with sheepshead, tautog, flounder, and red drum being common. Long Bay Pointe Bait and Tackle reports indicate that Lynnhaven Inlet is a prime spot for speckled trout and puppy drum. The Virginia Beach Pier is another great location, offering a variety of species.
Whether you're targeting the surf along Sandbridge for larger red drum or exploring the deeper waters for sea bass, tilefish, and other deep-sea species, the Chesapeake Bay has something for every angler this November. Tight lines
