Today was so nice; I skipped watching the Ravens and set up all my rods with the coresponding reels (I have a mix of 309, 320, 330, 340, and 113H).

Now that that's done, I need to put together my tandem's and umbrella rigs with the proper weight lures. Maybe Tuesday because I'm fishing tomorrow.

Wow...So both Friday and Saturday were great days with great friends...However, the fish were not even close to cooperating...In those two days I fished from the Choptank almost to the Patapsco....2 fish to show for many, many hours of fishing....But any day with great friends is a good day...

To make it even worse, I got some water in my fuel tank (Don't Ask) on Saturday and it made it very, very difficult to cover a lot of ground....Scott and I made the best of it and got 2 fish...So today I headed down to the marina to try and get the water out and get the motor working...About an hour later I was ready to get her out for a test run...Was not too bad, looked like things were running ok...

Headed out (Never leave home without rods...) towards White Rocks to a couple of nice areas I have found...Got nothing...Figured it was going to be another bad day in the pattern...Headed back closer to home to some of the good ole spots and within 15 minutes I had 3 on board, 2 were keepers...Stayed out for about 90 minutes....Ended up with 5 fish...All very nice fish...Used a lure I don't usually use, a 2 oz bucktail with a long twister tail...One thing that stood out today was that the fish were not "stuck" to the bottom...Still not a lot of bait around, the water was very clear, and the weather was perfect...

Some pics from today....Hope you all have a good week...
