SurfDog (John) wanted to go fishing on Saturday morning, so we decided to meet up with Grady Black (Mike) and Medicyaker (Tom). Kitkatyaker (Kay) would also join us later that morning. We meet at the Wawa on Route 50 at 5:30am. Then we headed over to Anglers, to pickup last minute supplies and then headed over the Bay Bridge. Our intention was to launch out of Bennett Point Landing into the Wye River or Dominion Landing into Crab Alley. Put as luck would have it. A weather front was coming through today, and as always, would bring winds of 10 to 20 mph. Needless to say, it was too windy to fish our intended locations. To avoid the wind we ended up at Weems Creek, where we met Kitkatyaker. We also say another MKF yaker launching there too.
We launched and headed upstream. It was an incoming tide. The winds were almost non-existent. The temperature would reach 70 degrees or more during the day. It was a nice day despite the wind. We fished the shoreline for the most part. I quickly landed 2 small 12 inch rockfish. I then landed a nice 17 inch pickerel. John Veil would like to hear that. I then landed a few nice perch that I kept for Grady Black. Kay had a nice day too. She landed a nice 15.5 inch pickerel and a 17.5 inch puppy drum that was released. I saw SurfDog catch perch and Grady Black landed a nice 12 to 13 inch white perch that he added to his bucket of fish. I continued to catch perch and a few more smaller pickerels. By 11:00am we were off the water. Another good day of aquatic exercise.
