Futile fun at St Georges Island

[kevinfry]

Not much to report, Sunday AM met Ronault and Chexone at St Georges Island, Launched at the worst landing in Southern MD, got skunked while the redskins pulled off a miracle. Ron had one hit, we fished marked fish repeatedly but no takers. When the wind stopped we got socked in with fog...I thought I could find shore on my own and follow the shoreline home.....did not happen...wandered around aimlessly in 7 ft of water til I finally came back across Ron and Mike, Whew!
The only Rockfish we saw all day was one that tried to crawl into mike's boat at the launch...that was funny. Here are a few pics

Looks like fun even if the skunk came out in the fog!

good company, for sure, good weather for the most part.

MAN I dont think I coulda missed out on the Skins game for that!! I learned while fishing with Cliff that a basic compass and the knowledge of how to use it can be a life saver in fog. You cannot and should not rely on electronics...batteries die, signal is lost, gets too wet, etc

Nice shots of you guys on the water. Sorry that the fishing was tough, but at least you got out...

I totally missed this thread. Must be all the fog...

The rockfish that tried to jump in my yak. He wasn't doing too well, otherwise i woulda caught him and called him "dinner"


Kevin, in a rare moment without fog


We trolled this drop-off for hours... 5ft-45ft in about 15 yards


Fog


If you look very carefully, you can see birds in the center, and Ron on the right


Despite the skunk, it was fun being in the fog and good exercise too.
