Weather was flat calm and perfect again. We had to go all the way to Point Lookout this time to get our first fish in the boat, still had a few in the boat by 7. Headed northeast to where the birds and trout had been yesterday, wise decesion. Fish all over. The birds were working on rockfish only this time, but we knew the trou had to be close by. We kept going form pod to pod of birds gradually going deeper until we hit the 40 foot mark. Bingo! Thats where the trout were, and they were everywhere. We found a shelf that went from 32 to 38 feet in a 5 minute drift and the trout were stacked on the edge. They were everywhere...and we couldn't help but to catch them. We eventually forgot about the birds and drifted over the pods of trout. They weren't moving nowhere. There were also some large 5 pound bluefish in the mix that spit up small trout when caught, and some large high 20's rockfish in the mix. It was a good pod of fish. Essentially we caught until our arms were sore and aching at about 2. We had caught at least 50 trout or more and just as many rockfish to boot and there was not point in staying longer. On the way back in we found more breakers, and although we had caught plenty of fish we had to try them again. What do you know, more dink rock....an end to a very productive day. Day 3...Ty would have to sit this one out, and I had someone not very used to fishing or boating with me. I was looking for breakers close to the dock to play with for a few hours, but I would not find them. We caught a few in the currents at Point lookout and again had fish in the boat before 7, but jigging off the bottom in a tide rip proved to be challenging to my guest, and we crossed the bay on another flat calm day. Headed over to substantial structure but could not find any there that were readily willing, so again I began the journey north looking for fish where fish had once been. We traveled the ragged edge maybe three miles when the horizon was neraly white, and I knew the journey had ended. To make a story short, the one I was fishing with had only ever caught three fish in their life, and, well has many many more notches under their belt as of today. We staedily caught fish for four or five hours and the birds were still going strong but we done gave up. Our wrists and arms were sore and, after all, tomorrow is a school day. What a string of days we had had. Flat calm seas and hundreds of rock and trout. My fishing addiction has been held over for a few days...at least until this weekend at the CBBT!!! See you all later!
