Just Follow the Birds

Type: Chesapeake
Region: Lower Bay
Location: Point Lookout

I fished out of Point Lookout on 11/4 and 11/5. Trolled a bit but nothing was happening. Saw a bunch of various birds all heading in the same direction so I decided to follow them. They took me to a feeding frenzy. Caught and released several undersized rockfish, the largest being about 19 inches. Jigged a bit to catch and release a few trout as well. Ended the day with a peaceful sunset. Went back out the next day for round two but the rains came in the AM and pushed me off the water. Returned around noon once the weather cleared and the frenzy continued, catching many undersized Rrockfish. Water temps were about 60 degrees, needs to drop a few more. When quality is not there, quantity feels good too.
