Don't be so hard on yourself Joe. I know the area you are fishing; and I moved the boat south just to increase my odds
As soon as the fish school up, fishing will get better for you.
Keep your fingers crossed that the spot come up to the Bay Bridge area this season. Last year, I was running all the way behind Poplar Island to catch spot and fishing Eastern Bay, Blood Point, and Tilghman Island
That's a long haul for us "northern" guys. Bruce turned us on to some "eeling" closer to home, and the fall fish cooperated nicely up north.
Don't get frustrated this early. Reinforcements are coming. Bruce and I are moving back north in the next couple of days.
