4th of July trip

I saw you in the middle of all the "chummers" and I couldnt believe it. I thought, that must be another black 36 Judge... we trolled just above the fleet and after the tide changed, we did well. Got our 2 man limit with 2 overs (31 & 32) and 2 unders (both 26). Rods were going down left and right so we threw back another 5 keepers. Once it turned on, we had all of this action in about 30 min. The first 2 hours were slow, with one keeper and 1 short, so we just watched the chummers reel in their fish and wish we were chumming. But once it turned on, it was all worth it ��

Was with that fleet last night but stayed away from the main body.

Used frozen menhaden that was at least 6 months old, no chum.

Easy limit for the boat in less than 45 minutes along with some nice catfish.

They can't all be there but anyone with a boat is there now.

Saw blues breaking off chesapeake beach last week, hoping the blues and croakers head north soon.

Remember those potatoe cannons we used to play with? Just load them with chum! Just saying? Very effective in keeping people away from you!

Damn it Kevin, now you tell me. After I buy a new set of chumming rods and lower the value of my boat by at least 15% by chumming on it?? I could have trolled up fish even closer to home AND slept in to do it??? I don’t think I like you anymore......

I LOVE croaker fishing!!

Mental note- don’t anchor near Mako Mike.....ever!
