We have friends from Holland coming next week. I won't be ready to try to launch
the boat myself, but with Adri's (my friend) help, I'm sure planning to do a
little boating. He and his wife are shipping their VW camper van from Rotterdam
to Baltimore. We'll pick it up a few days after they arrive. They'll stay here a
couple weeks and then spend the next three months travelling.

I'd like to get into the Ches Bay and do a little fishing. Even some bottom
fishing for spot, perch, or croaker would be fun. I went down to the marina a
couple weeks ago, and the boat looks fine. The cover took a beating, but the new
one is here. Next year I'll give serious though to shrinkwrapping, especially if
I get the phone number of the real cheap guy in MD that one of the poster here
is always talking about.

I'm also interested in seeing how this new dog of mine does on a boat.

Striped bass are the big draw, along with trout and flounder. But fishing for
all three has gotten much worse over the past few years, especially the trout
and flounder.

Perhaps if you knew where and how to fish for flounder, and actually
fished in Chesapeake Bay, something you haven't done for a quite some
time, eh, mr. surgery?

Lots and lots of bad water. Here is a report done by the Chesapeake Bay
Foundation, probably the major group fighting to save the bay.

http://www.cbf.org/Document.Doc?id=170

It's not necessary to read the whole report, just skimming it will give a feel
for the problems the bay is having.

Here is a good article on some of the problems also.

http://tinyurl.com/yhmqtue

Obviously, pollution is the big problem, but overfishing of menhaden is also on
the list. Menhaden are the basic feed fish in the bay, and they do a lot of
filtering of water. But, they also make great fish oil and fertilizer. Maybe the
asian carp could be a more productive source for both.

In the Bay? Methinks the carp in question are fresh water fish.

I guess you don't realize this, but many fish adapt from going to
fresh water to salt water and salt water to fresh water. Ever here of
striped bass, dummy?
