I fished today from 8:30 to 1:30. I caught the end of the outgoing, it seemed it would never stop going out. I fished hard until 12:30 without getting a single bite. I took the whole day off so I toughed it out and had a sandwich. The next three drifts I had a keeper flounder. The second fish was the largest of the day. He slammed a 1/2 oz. jig head with a fin-S and fought like a striper. I drifted three or four more times before I got the last one. The fish were between 17.5" and 20". All but the biggest were caught on minnows.

Nice Flatties!!!!! Can't wait to get the boat down to CBBT here and try for my Doormat this year. Love eating those things too....

I have never fished right around the CBBT, but I hear it is some great flounder fishing. I've fished a few times off of Cape Charles along the edge of the channel and done real well.
