We have had enough reports now to know that Stripers and Shad are spread out in the Lower American Rvier from the Gristmil access downstream to the mouth at Discovery Park.

A boat would be best for this type of fishing especially in the higher flows but some aggressive fly fishers will be sucessful wading now too.

The river is at ~4,000cfs but hopefully will be coming down soon. This flow is probably why the fish are in the river now though.

Look at our new fish report.

I know thay I am early, fished the Watt ave. bridge for Shad after hearing that a large school was between Howe and Watt. I will keep you posted. Bryan.
