I travel two hours to the nearest Salt and 15 minutes to the upper Delaware,
very hit and miss for Stripers up this far.
It's 40 minutes to nearest freshwater impoundment but without a boat its pretty much just a nice day out.
I have traveled - from Maine to Virginia.
Eastern long Island is 4 1/2 hours.
How far is it for you?

My Favorite Spots in general are between 1.5 and 2 hours. I spend most weekends on the outer cape in the summer and even travel 30 mins there to get out to Provincetown to fish Racepoint and other locations. In general I will go anywhere and drive anywhere to chase fish.

It takes me about 50 minutes to get to the river. Distance of about 35 miles. I'm sick of traveling an hour to hunt and fish and plan to shorten that distance by about 40 minutes or more in the future. I can be freshwater fishing in 2 minutes from my house but there are no stripers there.

From my couch to the beach (my normal haunt), including travel and set up time, approx. 5 minutes thumbsup.gif Almost all of the spots I fish are within 15-20 minutes driving time with maybe a few exceptions.
