It was a must-have-gloves day.
I made a short fishing trip after work. I thought I could fish at least 4.5 hours. But I underestimated the traffic on 95 in the afternoon. And also I couldn't open the center hatch immediately because the hatch was stuck frozen. All my lures and jigs were inside the hatch. I prepared everything and put the kayak on the roof of the vehicle the day before when it was snowing. I carried a can of de-ice in the vehicle. So I used de-ice to free the hatch. Come to think of it, I could just pour the warm Lake Anna water. So I learned something new.
I caught 7 stripers at 16-18" for 3 hours. The water temp at Dike 3 was 49-52F. I think the water will become colder and fishing will get better later on
