COBIA ARE IN THE BAY! COME AND GET EM'!!!

The fishing is HOT in the Bay right now.  Luckily the run of LARGE Cobia that we have had are still sticking around.  Over the past couple days, my Mate Nathan has been fishing on his own and has been having good luck!






Be sure to get your chance to catch one of these hogs SOON!  I still have some weekend dates available.  Give me a call at 804-436-3241 and book your date.

Better late than never (I guess)

As you can tell, it has been some time since my last post.  Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find time to update my fishing report, but it's not because I haven't been fishing.

This spring started out pretty slow for me.  With this spring being cooler and later than usual, the trophy bass that we catch early in the year were later than usual coming down from their spawning grounds.  Once they did make their way into our area, the fishing was good. 
 
 


 
 
Unfortunately, once these large fish moved out of the bay and started their trip north, fishing got a little tougher and the fish that we had were smaller.  however the action stayed good. 
 



Now that summer is here we are able to target other species of fish that inhabit the bay.

Recently, we have been targeting a good run of Cobia that have entered the bay.  While we have always had a limited number of these fish in this portion of the bay, the last two years have produced a good number of fish caught.
 


 
In my opinion, Cobia are tremendous sport fish (and taste pretty good too)!  If you are lucky enough to hook into one you had better be ready to put up a fight, because these fish don't give up easy!  Hopefully these fish will hang around for us and we will have action all summer. 

In the next couple weeks, we should start to see good numbers of Bluefish and Mackerel show up along with some BIG red drum. 

In the meantime, we have PLENTY of skates available for a different type of action.  last winter I purchased a Parker crossbow which is set-up for bow fishing. 
 
 
Since may, I have been having a GREAT time shooting many of the Cownosed Rays that inhabit the Chesapeake Bay. 
 

 
As you probably know, these rays get pretty big and put up one heck of a fight once you are lucky enough to sink an arrow into one.  With no creel or size limit these skates there is great opportunity to have a lot of fun.  Not to mention that you will be saving the Chesapeake Bay's oyster population!

I will have the cross bow on board for customers to use, but you can always feel free to bring your own bows that are set up for fishing. 

Currently, I have some Saturdays and Sundays available during June & July, so please call me (804)436-3241 to reserve your day soon!

Happy Father's Day!
