Fishing Report: Rockfishing, Stripers in the Chesapeake Bay
Today, we welcomed Mr. Dennis “Ed” Greenway, his daughter Denise, and friends from Temple Hills, MD for a total of 8 anglers. T.J. Reiber served as 1st Mate today (on right in group picture below). We did a chumming and trolling combo trip.
We chummed with light spinning tackle. We rigged up with standard chumming rigs and used cut Bunker for hook bait. We caught 16 corpulent Striped Bass (“Rockfish”) (our limit) ranging from 18” up to a whopping 38.5” plus our boat fish.
We also released a few undersized Rockfish. But the big surprise was when we caught 5 (that’s right 5) Croakersaurii. No, I’m, not kidding. Yes, I know it’s Thanksgiving. I’m not kidding, really! Hey, don’t blame me, I’m just the messenger.
