Fishing Report for 12/03/11, caught this 43 inch 34 lbs striped bass between Bloody Point Light and Red 86. The fish was caught trolling on a Tony spoon in tandem with a 3oz parachute 300 ft back.
I could not find anyone to go fishing the day I caught this fish. So, I had to drive a 34 ft boat, set the lines etc.. and reel the fish in from 300 ft back while avoiding the insane boat traffic single handedly. I have never seen so many boats all trolling in the same area. I have also never been flicked off by a fellow angler for being unavoidably close to their boat and never heard so much bad mouthing between anglers on the radio. I had alot of boats come close to me, but it did'nt bother me. Fishing is supposed to be fun!!!!!!!
