I was invited to go on a fishing trip this past Saturday and the good Lord blessed us with calm seas and loads of fish, we even saw lots of whales. We left Greenbackville, Virginia at 6:30 am and headed out of Chincoteague inlet what appeared to be E/SE, we only went a short way and started looking for birds. We found whales first (by the way if anybody knows what species of whales would be out there now, please let me know) then we found strings of birds but they were not working. We spotted a small group diving, so we trolled there and caught a few, one guy had never caught a rock before so he was up first and he had two on at the same time (1st photo) then the Virginia Marine Resources Police came on board and checked us out.
All was well. The Capt. got a radio call and we took off for another spot, huge flock of birds working and we limited out quickly. We caught over thirty fish ranging from 27 to 43 inches. Their were some excited anglers and we didn't have enough room in the coolers. When we got back home we made an assembly line to the cleaning and fileting, some beautiful meat. What a glorious day on the water!!!!!!
