Have been doing some research on fishing tournaments, with help from Redfish12 and jffoley. Need to decide on location. Tentativley planned for 2nd Saturday in Aug. Appreciate some input.
Bay Bridge - Hemmingways - is one possibility, always fish around, usually bigger fish. Central location. There could be a lot of boat traffic, I have read some posts from members who have some concern about fishing the bridge.
Ferry's Cove, Lowes Wharf - eastern bay between St. Michaels and Tilghman Island is second possible spot. Fish maybe a little harder to find, rock, bluefish, croaker and perch can be found closer to shore. Most would have to travel further. The area is a lot more sheltered, good area for new kayakers if they want to stay in 5-10 ft experienced kayakers can venture out onto the easten bay around Poplar Island.
We realize catching fish is important but participation, safety and having a good time is the main reason we are getting together.
