Decided to give 36A a shot on Sat even with the forcast for Tstorms. Left norview at 11:30 after the rain stopped. Water was slick calm with a light W wind. Had a nice run south. Saw the fleet of boats just south of 36 so we decided to start up north. Water was 59 and still fairly clear. Drift was a steady 1.5mph. Picked up the first 10 flatties in first hour and a half all between 19 and 25 inches with one at 26. Had to work real hard for the last 2 fish. Color of choice was chart or white with the squid/minner sandwich. Made it back to the dock just before the hail let loose. Hopefully the Cell will get hot soon!
Total tally- 12 feesh in 3 hours
Picks to follow

I was there on Friday at 36A. We didn't do quite as well. Most of the time we were trolling because the tide wasn't running very hard. We left the area about 1 PM which probably was a mistake.
On Thursday we were in Wachapreague. We got more fish but less keepers than we did in the Bay. Our Thrursday trip was cut short by a thunder and lightning storm in the afternoon. If anything, the fishing should get better with time.
