05.19.22 School(ies) in session....


      Might as well get this out of the way. Here's something to remember. When you take your spool off your reel because you have a line crossover going on, make sure you lock it in when returning. Otherwise, when you're on a boat it will flip in the water, sink to the bottom, and then you'll have to go through all the line and backing to retrieve the spool, and hopefully you have a good know securing it. 


      Had a boat day today and worked to hard to get one follow. Another boater in the area was his spinning rod deep into the current and landed a dozen to 26 inches. I worked all the seams that currents that I could but didn't land a fish. Fun to be out on a boat for a change of pace. 



     After getting some work done it was back at it on the incoming tide, this time with a pair of Crocs walking on the grass. Landed two schoolies, one 24" the other smaller. They say this is the normal 


cycle when the schoolies move it, but there is always chance for a bigger fish, especially if you believe big fish go all the way above Easton. If their vacation spot is Block or Cape Cod then they have to make their way past these parts on their way out. 

     Last night it was fishing till midnight on the dropping tide. I was alone, then joined by two spin guys. As they made their way past me the bass where blowing up on herring in front of me along the concrete. I made a cast hooked up, but tried to play it down so not to attrack their attention, and the fish came unbuttoned.
