Here's the Bob Christ (center) crew from
September 26 with part of their mixed catch of rockfish, bluefish, and some flounder to 18
inches. Surface action continues to be all but non-existent over much of the mid-Bay
area from Sharps Island Flats south to the Patuxent River mouth. |
 |
And here we have the Bobby Rhodes
(center, standing) crew taking a break on a beautiful late-September afternoon. From
left to right, that's Bev, Danny, Cindy, Bobby, Gene, and Joe. Although rockfish
eluded us on this trip, everyone had fun with a cooler full of bluefish to 6 pounds. |
 |
Here's the Captain demonstrating his
electronics to Bobby as Cindy looks on, or maybe it's the other way around ... |

If you're wondering what this has to do
with fishing, this is a photo from north of the Fishing Creek jetty on the afternoon of
September 16 when Hurricane Floyd was passing by Atlantic City, NJ. I value my
camera more than a few more photos from earlier in the day when the wind was blowing
harder and the rain was pouring steadily. |
 |
Drew, who was fishing with the Morry
Frankel party on September 12, is shown here with one of the nicer bluefish they caught on
hose eels east of the channel. |
 |
Here's Alex of the Mike Fox crew of
September 11 with a nice 34 inch rockfish that just had to have a chartreuse parachute/9
inch white shad bait fished 200 feet back. |
 |
Here we have the Gray family crew with a
bunch of bluefish and some rockfish they caught on the afternoon of September 10, before
catching some croaker and more bluefish while bottom fishing on the Gooses after the sun
went down. |
 |
And here's Kathy of the Gray party with
an 18 inch croaker. While not many were caught that night, all of them were a good
grade. More blues and a few trout rounded out the evening's catch. |
