All wish me some luck.... I will be up at the Chesapeke Bay Friday night and will fish until Sunday Morning around 11am..... If you are out there hit me up "PlasticBay" on 18*..... Got a couple boats going so hopefully one of us get on them and we all can load the coolers!!!! Putting in at Kipt-State-Park and staying at the Hotel just off the bridge to the left.... I will post PICs on Monday of the trip!!!! :cool:
 
Good luck hope you catch your limits. Be sure to bring plenty of warm clothes, it is going to be cold up here this weekend.
 
Boost good luck I am driving down on sunday from NY state Staying at the Kiptopeake Inn and fishing Mon and Tue. To long of a haul to bring my boat. Fishing with Capt Tom Hughes in his 23' twinvee.:D
 
Hopefully the weather will stay good enough to fish Sunday. I will be leaving out here in a couple hours and will post some pictures if we get them. I sent you my cell so call me when you get down......
 
Good Luck Jeremy.

Maybe when you come back in january I can join you in the little boat.

OK, here is the report..... Pictures to follow.... Got there at 5:30 am Saturday morning after a 6 hour drive. Cold, very cold and rough for the first 3 hours.... Got a little warmer but still rough :o almost lost it there.... Had to take a nap!

* Got our first hook up at around 1 PM. My buddies little boy had him on for a couple minutes and then lost him. Little guys arms were toasted! 30+ Pound Striper pulling plus a 5 MPH Rip Current working for the striper...... ;)

** Next guy got on at 1:15 PM..... Little man wound for about a minute and gave the rod to his dad :D....... Dad fought the fish for about 4 minutes and then gave the rod to me.... I laid the smack down on that striper in about a minute :rolleyes:....... That one was 43.5" and 37 Pounds live weight.

***Waited until 5:15 PM for the next bite..... Got hooked up with a drag/clicker SCREAMING!!!!! LOVE IT :eek:....... I fought this PIG for 10 Good Minutes and my arms were burning. Fish was 46" and 42 pounds :)......

Pics to come soon!

Only good day to fish....Expensive but tasty!

Just got done broiling 2 large slabs of striper and man...... AWESOME!!!!!
 
Oh yea....I cut open their stomachs and all eels!!! Smaller fish had 9 + the one that got him in the boat in his stomach.... Bigger fish had 3 eels and a couple fish.....
 
Nice fish, wish the weather had been better for you. Maybe next time!
 
So who wants to go this weekend????? ;)
 
Sounds good but paying for a crown and fixing my truck have killed my travel budget for the next couple of months.:mad:
 
Well at this time the seas are 4' and the weather forecast is terrible for this weekend so you are all off the hook :)...... I will have to finish my Deer Season this weekend.

Pamarine> I will be going to Louisiana the week after Christmas and will try to get a Trolling Trip out of Rudees after the first of the year pending funds :confused:......... We will see what Irons Out!

BigBird> Going to start Cat and Striper Fishing around the house after the 1st of the year and make a trip to the James in Feb if possible. Keep me up to date on your weekend adventures. I need to come and take some leasons from you on Big Blue Cats.....
 
Let me know when you're on the James. I live on a tributary...about 15 minutes from Deep Bottom via boat.
 
Will Do........ All have a great Christmas and I will be back on here after the first :)
