Slim Pickins Trolling between 85A & TPL, Nov 7
Left out of Sandy Point around 6:30 this morning. I knew the most talked about bite has been down off Ches Beach, but didn't want to go that far today (by trailer or boat). Headed down to 85A area and from watching the FF knew we were in for a lousy morning. Had Crabby and Son (Gary & Kevin) on board today. Well we soaked those lures real good and dragged 'em all around that area. We knew the south winds were suppose to start kicking up around 10, so we trolled to the north. Only managed to boat 2 twenty inchers and a couple of other knock-downs that didn't stay put. Looks like the large pods of bait have moved further south. Had no where near the action I have experienced in this area during the last couple of weeks. This great bite started north of Balt light about a 5 weeks ago and slowly moved its way down the bay. Guess we just have to hope we see the return of some of those big fish like we had off Mattapeake last year. Planning to launch at Ches Beach on Mon am with LTJ & Trolling gear...Don
