The results from Maryland's 2018 Young of the Year survey indicated a YoY index of 14.8 which is higher than the 65 year average of 11.8.
This is the second year in a row with an above average spawn, and one of four above-average spawns in the past decade.

The derby fishing is hit or miss but get out there and wet a line. As usual strange things happen during the derby and you can expect the unexpected! Check out the awesome pictures of some of our MVSA members success. Be safe and get out there and have fun during this great time on the Vineyard. Most of all, don't get caught up in derby fever and miss the most important part of this derby...being with friends and enjoying the island. Those are the times you will remember most once the derby has ended.
Please pay special attention to the tribute to the great Ed Jerome. There are no words that can truly express what a great icon he is to all who knew him and what he has done for this island, community and especially the Derby which we all owe special gratitude. Respect does not even come close to covering all he has done.
Don't forget about the MVSA In-House derby if you are skilled (aka: Lucky) enough to land a nice fish. Details are in the newsletter and can also be found on the MVSA website under the CLUB tab and then by clicking on the 2018 In-House Derby link.

He caught it from shore, casting off a local beach, said
the staff at Julian's Bait & Tackle. But the big catch has some
controversy.
ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS, NJ — A Pennsylvania man caught a 58-pound, 59-inch striped bass Monday near Atlantic Highlands, NJ.
Perhaps
most incredibly — other than the fish's sheer size — is that John
Callahan caught it from shore, just casting off a local beach in the
area, said the staff at Julian's Bait & Tackle. Callahan bought his
bait at the Hwy. 36 tackle shop, and went fishing Monday afternoon,
April 30. He brought his big catch back into the shop later that day to
take photos, which have now gone viral online.
