Default Quick Patapsco report

Fished on my friends boat this morning. Fished the edges of the channel and got 2 quick keepers and a short in an hour then nothing for 3 hours. Fish came on storm shad 12 OZ back 10 bars and a 3/4 OZ bucktail w/ white twister 28OZ back 6 bars. Didn't see much, but what we did see was deep. Not much bait, I'm guessing bait has departed and headed south.

Bruce; fished a charter down by 78A and found fish 58 ft down, in 60 ft of water

We put a few in the box and had a few shorts. Must have been 50 boats in a very small space. We were laughing at the sights. Saw boats snagging each others lines and fighting over who had the toughest tackle. It was all fun and games until a charter cut too close behind us and I had a line screaming

I grabbed the rod, locked down the drag, and won We got our tackle back, and his as well

Seriously, it was close to bumper cars out there. Fish were tightly schooled and as I said, hugging the bottom. John would kick it into neutral, all the boat rods would hang limp, and he would slip it back into gear. We would pick up at least one fish every time, but this also meant that 9 other rods were either F'd up or lures were muddy.
It kept me busy, for sure. Meanwhile; two or three boats would race into your spot trying to accomplish the same thing.

I quickly switched out umbrella's for John's spreader rigs; they can lay on the bottom and come back up correctly. I also changed out parachutes and buck tails because they would pick up the mud. Storm shads quickly dominated my spread.

I didn't see anybody tear up the fish. Many well known charters were working the same area and stayed late trying to get their limit.

Good luck,
Play nice,
5th (Marty)

Default limit in the Magothy

Yesterday we decided to leave the rods racked and go for a late lunch cruise to The Point in Arnold. Lolo (JY under construction right now) was there last week and Bill Judge's lovely sister in law was there a couple weeks ago so that was enough endorsement for me to go check it out. I choose the lovely sister in law and Bill's brother Jimmy over Lolo to join us and off we went. (Sorry Lolo, I said she was lovely)

Food - AWESOME!!! Tried almost every app they offer. Winter menu prices were very reasonable. We STUFFED ourselves and carried out leftovers.
Drinks- yummy. Everything we had was $8
Dockage- very limited. Not bad now if you ignore the "no docking" signs but in season, must be a nightmare. 4 or 5 restaurant slips that are small and shallow- so bow in!
Atmosphere- quite nice. 4 TVs and decent sized bar. Great service!!

I'm a big fan of Mike's North and that will remain my go to in season but I wil be back to The Point before the boat gets pulled in 2 weeks. It was a great afternoon!!

May not eat for a few days now as we were "stuffed to the limit" leaving there. (And there was a lot less pressure on me than if we had put rods out!!)

It's a report of what some of the fishermen are doing in the upper bay!

I think my fishing is done for the year. With water temps in the low 40's, and the poor reports coming from north of the BB, what's the point? Maybe when I make the run to Denton to get pulled I will try them off the Choptank before heading upriver.

Are you going to the factory for the winter?

Just got back from there, and I am stuffed. We found it last weekend, and decided to give lunch a try. I did take a look at the docking and had the same thought, that summer would be a challenge, especially in a big boat. Maybe a good location for our next get together?

I used to go there tons when it was the old dive ass bar with a tent for a roof. Getting a little pier space was always easy in my 15' bass boat.

Mike (Garlien) and I took our wives there back in the summer for a nice night outside. It's a mere 7 minutes from my house which makes it SWEET.

The summer months can make it hell getting in and out of there. The channel is very narrow and takes a few quick turns, and getting just a few feet outside the markers would be dangerous for a 3'+ draft boat. I've seen lots of poor boat handling end peoples' fun times. Had to tow a boat back to the ramp there at Ferry point when he sheered off most of his prop.


Great place to visit during the week in the summer. Weekends are um.....exciting.

Going to the JY factory for the winter. Getting a couple minor things done but not getting twin 300's - think triples would be better!! Just kidding!

Not a bad spot for a get-together but seemed kinda tight on seating during the winter months.

Mark- if I had known you were gonna be there today, I would have left my bill for ya!

Marty - will advise of next visit. It will be soon.

I love dive bars!!! Somehow I feel more at home
