What a beautiful day on Chesapeake Bay! Flat as a millpond this
morning,
a little foggy, but the fog burned off. Water temps in the mid-70s.

Lots of folks fishing for croakers, so we tried our luck and managed
to
catch 25 in less than two hours in two different spots. We used
Fishbites Bag O' Worms, an artificial bloodworm. They're fabulous.
We
outfished the Lady Hooker, a headboat that was in the crowd. Tossed
all
the fish back.

Took a nice little jaunt up and across the Bay to St. Micheals for
lunch, then we zipped up through Kent Narrows to ogle the fancy
boats
and bikinis. Came back down again, drift fished for a while in a
pack of
boats just outside Herring Bay and caught...more croakers.

It's pretty hot outside now, must be almost 90F.

Gasoline prices were pretty bad at the marinas we saw. About $2.69.
Nothing like having a POTUS who won't even jawbone Big Oil. Oh well.


Wow! *No* one has caught a croaker yet in Herring Bay, including both
Hookers
who were there this past Thursday. Lots of perch and a few spot, but
nary a
croaker.

You should post this on Tidalfish.com. You'd be a hero in a minute.
As a matter
of fact, would you mind if I posted it for you? Hell, I'll give
hkrause credit
and everything!

You are *the* man, Harry!


You really can't read for content, can you?

I said *outside* Herring Bay.

Inside, outside, the story is the same. Do you mind if I post your
magical
moment to tidalfish.com? They will *love* hearing the news. Even the
Rod 'n Reel
tackle shop, who books the Lady Hooker, would love to hear about your
croaker!

Gee John, I went over and looked at the replies to you post on
tidalfish. Thought you were going to post them here. Why haven't you?
Because NONE of them say anything even remotely the same as you've
stated.


Read Old Fart's reply. He was in the same neck of the woods. Bull**** is
bull****!



My guess is that some guys caught croakers and some guys didn't, which
is usually the way it is in fishing.

I have concluded from his posts over the years here that Herring ain't
much of a fisherman, and if he doesn't have one of his fishing buddies
with him, he usually skunks. Herring is into the mechanics of fishing,
but not the aesthetics. He uses heavy gear, trolls lotsa metal, and when
he bottom fishes, he goes to the same old places everyone else
frequents. He also limits himself by his refusal to boat very far from
Deale and Herring Bay; the best and most consistent fishing in the
Middle Bay is south of that area, and across the Bay entirely.

We're not even using organic bait and we're doing better than Herring,
and on light, light tackle.

That ****es Herring off, so he whines about it here, and his
buttbuddies, the non-fishermen, chime in as his little support group.


Getting caught is a bitch, ain't it Harry?

I think Capt. George said it best, "Spot croaker!"

I'm surely not as gifted a fisherman as you, Harry. After all, I've not
spent
nearly as much time in nearly as many boats in nearly as many places as
you.
But, when I tell a fishing story, I don't embellish it with bull crap.

"All decisions are the result of binary thinking."


Krause does not embellish..............he just makes up the entire story.

The boat, the education, the wife, the fishing trips..........

I wonder what his real life is like? We know now he has a small one bedroom
trailer (the pics he posted today proves it) with an asphalt drive that used
to be gravel. I think he 25 foot fishing boat is worth more than his
trailer.

Carry on Krause. You are almost as entertaining as your buddy Kevin.
