4/16 Slow Day with the Flatties
« on: April 16, 2009, 06:21:15 PM »
Had a Charter out today celebrating Chris C. 35th birthday. Perfect day to be on the water, a least something was perfect.

Made about 9 drops for a handful of Flounder, all very respectable between 15 1/2 and 17 1/2" but not even a fair bite, slow very slow.

If the fish reflected the amount of chum I used they would have been 6 lbers.

But the birthday boy was high hook and had the biggest fish.......he is off to a Hops and Barley celebration as we speak.

Back at it again tomorrow hopefully the effects of the rains are gone and the Sun today and tomorrow will get the mud backs biting
