When the lights go off...

I just got my power back on around 7:00 on friday. It worked out because there was nothing for me to do-but go fishing. I got out last night around 5:00 pm and found some big blues on bunker and all I was wanted to get them on the fly rod. It took some time but I figured out I had to strip like a madman and that was the only way they wanted it, kinda hard to do when you have my pathetic casts-but I made it work. One fish looked near 15 pounds. I lost a bunch of flies but was all worth it. Then when all that died down I paddled around and found bass and blues on peanuts and had a blast with them for a while. It seems like the dog days of summer never find my area.

The fresh water action has picked up dramatically in my area.Guess all that rain was good for both after all http://kfs.infopop.cc/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif "Peanuts"?Is that some type of fly.

Peanut bunker, right? Little baby bunkers, right?
Power went out here in OCMD today for about 30 min... and I went fishing (transformer blew, took out 10 or 15 blocks) threw a few chunks of bunker, spot and squid out in the surf, not a bite
Oh well, you're luckier than I am

Summer fishing isn't as bad as you think it is...

Joe, I got into the big blues at about 5:00 Saturday morning, hope they stick around. On the way back in I got a fall preview with bass blitzing on peanut bunker until about 9 am. Landed several in the mid twenty inch range on my 7 wt. Get this, I also landed two fluke on the fly.

Mike, I got a fluke on a 5" wildeye Saturday also.

Sat the rainfish had the blues in close and some nice fluke under them. Landed about 5 and three were keepers ....Popovic's Jiggy fly....this in addition to the fluke and bass! Wish the big blues were in, they fight the best.

Sit back and enjoy the ride!
