Windfinder had it all wrong. Instead of 20+ mph winds the water was like glass for the 1st couple of hours, then it got windy. Tons of leaves in the water wanting to be rescued by my swimbaits. Another yakfisher was launching as I got there. I didnt catch his name. It must've been slack tide because nothing was happening. Way back deep in the creek the water must've started to move & baitfish were getting antsy. I cast towards the splishes & the splashes & started hooking up w/ feisty rockfish too small to keep. The bait was getting blasted at times but my topwater lures didnt get any takers. After awhile of getting pullage, I aimed my Hobie Outback towards the Severn River. The winds were howling there. Waves easily went over the bow. I trolled out to the middle of the Severn & carefully turned around & reentered Weems. I caught no more back to the launch.
After lunch @ Hella's. I drove over the Bay Bridge & launched @ Goodhands. A quick 2- hr paddle out to the wall & back, I landed a bunch of dinks in minimal winds. I had some waves upon my return but nothing like those in the Severn. Overall, an enjoyable way for me to celebrate our Vets & admire the waterfront homes. My morning catch was around 15, w/ 3 being atleast 19", but not quite the 20" keeper size. Until next time!
