Severn River

[scott taylor]

The Severn has seemed quiet this spring for many of us so I was happy last Wednesday to have a lonely rock save me from a skunk. I was fishing an ebbing tide with water temps in the upper 40's. The fish I found hit a 3/4 oz Spro with 5" plastic. I was trolling perpendicular to the current and parallel to a bar on the up-current side. I would estimate in about 6-8' of water. 30 seconds before the fish hit I saw a bait flip on the surface in front of me (only sign of bait in 2.5 hours). It's always fun to catch a fish "where they are supposed to be"......this fish was healthy in appearance and was between 25-26". No sores no lice.....w/ shoulders, belly, and strong.
I hope that we can soon enjoy a delayed season and that the breeders all escape the Bay unharmed.

Nice going Scott, I hope you are correct on the warmup.

Congrats on your catch Scott.

Those breeders are going to have to run the gauntlet.

I crossed the Bay Bridge at 0630 Saturday morning and the trolling boats far below on both sides of the bridge were quite numerous and heading in all directions. They looked like the random trails of fireworks on the 4th of July.

And no one was catching. Baitfish everywhere
