Traveled to Charleston SC for my daughters graduation over the past 4 days, so I have not fished since last post. My fishing buds tell me it has been blowing 30 knots the entire time I was gone. Jumped on boat at 6:30. The wind had really blown a lot of water out of the river and the tide was still going out. My gas gauge said empty, so I stayed close to home. Ended up at marker 16 and had steady action on a the white twisty. Picked up 5 around 16 inches until finally picking up a legal 19 as the sun was setting. Turned out to be a perfect night for TW, but no takers.
I currently reside on Ferry Point near Annapolis MD and fish the South River from the headwaters to the landmark Thomas Point Lighthouse. i prefer to fish in 3 foot of water or less and throw topwater plugs. Most nights the action is non stop with small resident striped bass under 18 inches. Throughout the spring and fall it is quite possible that your night will include a mid 20 to 32 inch migratory fish. I never keep fish, just pictures and this blog.
