Well, I almost gave up on finding crew today until Nick (Sunshineinva) called at 8am this morning. We got a late start with lines in around 10:15. We started just south of the Ramada in 40' and it was slow to start. After working south a couple miles with no marks we pointed the boat back north and met up with the fleet off the Ramada. We found the bait and fish about 2.5 miles offshore in 38'-42' so we circled that area hard and the bite turned on around lunch time. We had our 4 fish by 1:30 and released a few more. It started getting rough so we called it a day. Our spread consisted of six lines. 4 white tandem 'chute rigs and 2 chartreuse mojos with 'chute trailers. All bites except one came on the white chute waaay back run off the t-top. Some good quality fish today up to 39". Thanks to Nick for making the drive from Richmond! Great fishing with you!!

After watch the 2 hour "24" second night special, I checked the weather reports to see what day this week I could fish. Tuesday and only tuesday! Retirement is tuff.
I sent an email to 5 buddies to see if I could get anyone to go on a last minute trip. Then I saw Ed's (rebel) post looking for someone to fish tuesday too. I responded that I was trying to find a crew too. After a PM and a few phone calls we located a crew of 2 (him and I).


Nice Fishing with you Ed, next time my boat.

I arrived onsite off the Ramada around 3pm with some guests from Washington, DC (who drove down that day). It started raining & got rougher with the NW wind/sea. Just after 4pm, all 4 rods go off & in 10 minutes we had a nice catch of fish. I was just about to call it a day, just goes to show what giving it a few more minutes will do for a trip (especially when you are seeing bait & marking fish). Arrived back at Taylors Landing marina right at 5pm with 5 fish, all over 20 pounds to clean...........
