Twilight Light Tackle and ALL you wanted-

Post by RACN35 »

Left OC at 0800 and headed south with 2,874 other boats .......2 hours of this N that and no fish.......headed back to the ramp at 1030.....loaded the boat and headed for lynnhaven, launched yet again and went to the bridge for some C&R at least we must have caught 75 to 100 fish in the 20ish dink range......called around the corner and it was hit and miss there too. We went anyway to Cape Charles.......drifted with that fleet and didnt do much there either.......may as well hit Cape Henry on the way home..........naw lets just head in......cruising back I saw a small behive but they were pounding the water pretty good......cut the motor and drifted right up to them.......these were big big fish under them and we dropped jigs and storms to the bottom and for 45 minutes we caught (and released) some where around 19 fish that all went 33 to 40 inches .........as the sun set we hauled tail and left them biting.......only boat near us was the yellow one over Toms shoulder in the pic.........back to Cape Charles for sure tomorro ............

So I guess they are all north of us now. We haven't had any word of fish here in south jersey for about a month if not longer. Very nice fish. Must have been a fun day
