Tough day for wind yesterday. Tuckahoe creek was good for yellows even in the wind. I too live on the Eastern Shore. Call me sometime and maybe we can hook up. Barry 410-364-5511 THANKS Keep catching
I had to work this weekend. Glad to hear you got out and caught some fish.
I had a good outing Sunday afternoon with a friend. Started at the Tuckahoe spillway and landed two trout then headed to a yellow perch hole at low tide. Caught maybe 30 yellow perch and kept 12 between 10 and 12 inches. Not as many small fish this trip as compared to last week. Surprising how low the tide was and how long it took to come back in.
I get all over the shore for my work so I see alot of places and I saw more dry land in places I usually see water then I can remember, it was crazy low for a coulpe days. Friend of my was muskrat trapping and got stuck in the marsh had to drag the boat a ways finally got out they did get 44 rats though!
44 rats that's a lot of pelts.
Yea they only got 5 the week before. That low tide musta helped.
Now, filleting a mess of perch doesnt seem so bad.....not sure Id want to get after that many rats!!
I think they went thru a few natural lights ( official beer of the eastern shore) while skinnin em. They were doing right when that bad thunderstorm came fri. evening.
Fished Pocomoke yesterday, light winds in am then strong in afternoon. Slow bite at first on flood tide. Bite came on after tide started moving out. Caught 18 crappie 4 pickerel 3 yellows 1 bass. Great weather, good day to spend with my friend and his son. Hope to go again this comming week if wind and rain cooperate.Quote:
