Super Day

[capt. dave]

On the river. We got an unbelievable load of white perch, herring, and hickory shad. I'd say it was over 200 fish unhooked plus a bunch that jumped off at the boat. They hit a silver spoon all day. We also did well with gold spoons and Green/Char. darts. I had one on that I thought might have been a white but it pulled loose before we could see it in the dingy water. I don't remember doing as well for years.

Where were you fishing? On the wicomico? How far up in the river were you catching them? Congrats on the great day. I can't wait to get back up....it'll be the third weekend of May. Guess I'll have to get some pullage around here on some small ponds, briery, sandy, and the rivers. The fishing is getting in the way of the skeet shooting.....or vice versa. Good to hear someone caught em. Chris

Chris, I was in the James River just above the I95 bridge. I was with Fish-on and his friend Mike.

In a 16x48 Lowe Big Jon with a 25 Merc. that belonged to Doug.

Yeah you should have come up stream, but last year we did better down where you were.

Can you keep the Hichorys?

[capt. dave]

Yes, you can keep the Hicks, but not the Whites (Americans). Just be sure you know how to tell the difference.

[fish-on]

Dave, Glad you had a good time with the shad, i went back on Friday and we did about the same. Doug.

[capt. dave]

Doug, whwn can we go again?

[fish-on]

Dave, Went back after them after work on Monday, they are still there in great numbers. We also caught alot of big white pearch. Let me know when you can go again, and we will set up another trip. Doug.

[Screamin Sunbird]

Sounds like fun to me. Doug how do I get an invite to fish on your boat. It sounds like your very skilled in catching the smaller fish in the river. It would lots of fun to fish with you. Are you the guy with the brand new boat and the brand new super cab truck? I thought I saw all new equipment at the ramp.

Capt. Dave, Doug,
Fished the James just above the 95 bridge today with very, very little success. Four white perch. Did see one other boat catch 2 herring. Tide was slack. Thunderstorm run us off before tide started moving again. Maybe next time.
