Fishing Point Lookout for Sea Trout 6/27

Type: Chesapeake
Region: Southern
Location: Point Lookout

I had planned on running down to PLO (Point Lookout) in the morning. But I stopped to take a look at Mill Creek prior. Seeing it flat and fish breaking I unloaded my kayak to take a shot at it, because, a friend of mine fished it yesterday, he caught a cutlass fish. I looked at my logs and I caught several last year on 6/26th. Well wouldn�t you know, I unloaded the kayak and before I got peddling around the bend the wind picked up� I only a snagged cownose ray and a few bluefish bites of my plastics. UGH.

So after two hours of dead water I pulled the plug and headed to PLO.

I fished PLO for three hours. The wind was up so it was a bit sporty. After an hour or so fishing the rock piles and old dock pilings by the lighthouse the wind picked up even more. I headed back to the dock. I did stop and fished the jetties at the inlet. Catching another trout and losing two fish.

In all I caught four speckled sea trout and two striped bass. Three of the trout and the striped bass were caught out near the lighthouse. Big trout was 18�, big striped bass was 20�. Catching on 3/8oz and 1/2oz jigs with chartreuse paddle tails, white 5� BKD shad/eel and an electric chicken twister tail.
