The big ones were running in their annual fall migration from Maine back to the Chesapeake Bay spawning grounds they had left last spring. Determined to intercept them, Oscar and fellow zealots were getting up in the middle of the night and tramping 100 miles of Vineyard beaches in the island's 14th annual Striped Bass Derby, which has drawn 1,200 fishermen from as far as California and Nova Scotia...
