Date: July 23, 2021 Body of Water: Casco Bay, Falmouth, Maine Moon Phase: Full Moon minus one days; waxing gibbous moon but virtually Full Tides: Low Tide at 4:53 AM Boat: None With: Alone Target: Striped Bass Time: 4:40 AM - 6:50 AM Conditions: Clear with a mild, northerly breeze; about 60 degrees F; water temperature 66; rising tide through-out, slack low into Quadrant III Based on the previous day's results, I expected good things from this session. This feeling was reinforced when I quickly connected with two stripers (<20 and 24 inches) within the first 10 or 15 minutes (slack low tide.) But then, things became inexplicably quiet. An hour later, at about 6 AM, my float went down for the last time. I landed this 20-incher. I thought it might be the harbinger of a nice bite in the second hour of Quadrant III, but I was mistaken! That was it! What do I have to say about this? Regression to the Mean is a real phenomenon; not every session can be above average! Still, what a pleasant way to spend some time before work! B.t.w., all action was on blood-worms suspended below slip floats. My swim-bait was, once again, universally ignored, as was a small Kastmaster spoon aimed at any mackerel in the vicinity. Pondering the questions of core essence and finding meaning in unexpected ways
