My last boat drew 4'10" and that was far too much. There are tons of nice anchorage's off the Chessy, but, they get a little crowded in the summer. I like to head 'up creek', away from the weekend warriors. Scotty |

Less. The Chessy is shallow, and I'm a gunkholer at heart.
I only draw 3' 4''. NOW HEAR THIS: A Siedelmann 30 is the best choice for a shallow draft sailboat! Also, boats with 5 foot draft are not popular on the Chessy! Also, centerboards are not popular on the Chessy! So that leaves the Siedelmann 30! Best pick!!!! Seriously! RB 35s5 NY |

RB 35s5 NY Speaking of draft, I think you are running your bait too close to the surface. Not getting any good hook sets. I suggest you use a planer to run a little deeper. This may help.
