    Let’s get some fishing reports going.

    I’ll start
    2 weeks ago son #2 got his first Yellowfin fo the season. We both thought the other person took a picture of it and I cut it up before we realized no one did. Just got a pick of him reeling it in.

    He got the first flounder on the boat same weekend (we suck at flounder fishing but are getting better and hope to improve much this season putting more time in on it)


    Monday we pulled a Mahi and Bar Jack off a drifting ball about 55 miles out.

    Boat Getting Repairs due to Fire Damage

    Right now, I'm not fishing on the bay due to my boat still being in the shop due to a fire on the boat next to mine last Thanksgiving weekend. Insurance is covering the cost, the repairs are almost complete, but I am crawling up the walls. The port side hull, the radar dome, the eisenglass wrap-around, and the upholstery sustained damage


    In the meantime, I will post a couple pictures from a year ago of one trip when we caught some keeper rockfish while light tackle jigging, and another trip when we caught over 100 fish using bloodworms over an oyster bar.

    That sucks! all that room and it has to go up right next to you. What is it witch cruisers and sail boats that they seem to have owners that don't maintain thier boats on average as well as fishing boats?

    2021 Kent Island DU catfish tourney Sept 5th

    I’ll be there

    Is that the one on the Chester River?
    We might do that one.
    We aren't tournament fisherman by a long stretch but we don't mind throwing some change at DU.

    Yup! Neither are we but the get together at the end are always fun too!

    Last year we did the Roper benefit at Benedict firehouse catfish tourney. The guy in front of us had one fish that beat our best 5 combined so we just drank beers lol

    Take Mike with you so i can chit on him if i catch a bigger fish. Lol if i don’t i won’t hear the end of it!

    If you can't catch a bigger fish than Mike you should just jump in the river and kill yourself. He sucks worse than I do. I talked to #1 son last night and he can't fish it so I'm probably out. If I'm in though Mike will be in the boat with me.
