Date: August 11, 2022 Body of Water: Casco Bay - Falmouth, Maine Moon Phase: Waxing Gibbous Moon; Full minus one day Boat: None, shore fishing from landing float With: Alone Target: Striped Bass Time: 5 PM - 7:30 PM Conditions: Low tide at 4:56 PM. Overcast; SSW wind in excess of 10 mph and about 65 degrees. Water temperature 71 degrees (+/-). After a break in a brutal stretch of hot weather, and with Full "Sturgeon Moon" Tides, I hit the float for a relaxed, weeknight session. I hoped the fishing would have benefited from the positive conditions. And it had; I enjoyed an active session from the landing float, going 7 for 9 on smaller stripers measuring up to 24 inches. I fished entirely within Quadrant III, and this tide had been marked on my calendar long ago. The details have become fuzzy, but all fish ate fresh blood-worms suspended under floats, and the most active time was one-to-two hours after low tide. This was simply a fun, relaxing weeknight endeavor, and it was necessary during a bit of a hellish work week. It was also nice to see some smaller fish to represent future potential. I don't really have much else to add. I am simply fortunate to have managed my circumstances such that I have the ability to easily and casually fish for striped bass. Pondering the questions of core essence and finding meaning in unexpected ways
