We have trips Saturday and Monday...if we get our rockfish early, we are going to try perch fishing off Holland Point....I gotta find my Fish-Off-Glove!!

Tawn,
FYI, we went back to the same area with Lou's boat. After my success with 6" parachutes, Lou downsized 6 rods with storm shads/sunami's and spoons. The fish were there and still breaking, but all we picked up were 16 inch fish
I suspect that my parachutes, even though 6inches, were just a tad too big for the smaller fish. I can't confirm this, but you might want to take some 6 inch parachutes just in case you get "covered up" with small fish.
We had plenty of fish from yesterday, so we took a ride to the Eastern Shore to see what was happening over there.
Now if you had difficulty believing that there were breaking fish this early in the bay, you probably won't believe this either. There were about 5 charters at Stone Rock looking for Drum
I could see a half a crab dangling from their lines while they searched and drifted over the area.
We never saw one caught. I suspect it's too early, but people are looking. Perhaps they caught their limit of rock and went looking for drum to fill out the day.
So best of luck to Tawn (and anyone else headed out). I believe I have taken my last "trailered" trip. I have had a great spring. Running from SP and CB. It's time to take the sailboat trip to Martha's Vineyard with my Pastor and then put her in the slip when I get home.
I'll be looking for spot when I get back (unless one of you find them first
). Livelinning will be under way soon. Tawn and I need to build my livewell soon
