Five spots, one keeper striper, one Coast Guard encounter
 

Got on the water about 8:30, and it was a little chilly, but really bad,
about 45F. Water temp is still 70F.

Saw the usual suspects congregating near the close buoy, so I joined
them for a while to catch some spot (small baitfish). Got five, got
bored, headed across Bay.

Called the WayneB Floating RV a few times on channel 16 VHF, but he must
have been off playing bingo or whatever it is old farts in big barges do
on Sundays.

Encountered a couple of smallish blues over by the Choptank River,
talked to a few guys on the radio, headed over to the gas docks, where a
Brit named gas tanker was offloading. First time I've actually seen a
ship doing that at that spot. All the fisherguys on the radio were
hoping it would explode (with no loss of life of course) so we could go
back to fishing that spot. Some of us got too close (with 500 yards -
crikey) and the CG was called. It showed up in about 15 minutes, an RIB
with a cabin and a couple of outboards. We all acted very concerned, but
since we all had moved and all the boats there were white fiberglass,
our protectors were at a loss. So they left, back to protecting us from
whatever it they are supposed to be doing out there.

Headed over to the nuke plant and just to see if I could get a rise out
of the "Blackwater" a**holes guarding it, I snapped a couple of photos
with my baby digital. Unfortunately, they were comatose, as usual.

Caught two stripers in the plant outwash. One was a keeper. Kept it.

Tried Wayne B again, no go. Plenty of reach today on the VHF, too.

And of course you know when they called the CG, and would not fudge
the reaction time either, right?? Anyway, just cause you didn't see
them, don't mean they were not there. I mean by your logic, must be
that there are no folks out there that want to hurt Americans and our
interests, since there is no security... Well, they attacked us
several times during the last Administration, and only once in this,
guess old GWB really has made us safer and less of a target... by your
logic...

George Bush made us safer? George Bush, who can't eat pretzels and sit
on a couch at the same time? George Bush is the worst president ever.

It's a "secret" place, heavily guarded by drunks from Blackwater. :}

We've been in the boondocks of Crisfield and Tangier - no internet, no
cell phone service, and waaay out of VHF range for a small boat.

Thanks for the fishing invitation though, maybe next time.

Obviously you had your tinfoil hat on backwards. Or you overdosed on
Aloperidin.
