Dreary rainy a.m. – sunrise more of a “lighter grey” than an event you might witness; still, weather man said the rain would soon be gone, that we’d see a different day.
Yup.
Rain moved off.
Got foggy.
Tight fog.
Radar fog.
Even forced to drift a bit in a foggy calm. Though drifting’s a huge no-no for tog there was nowhere to anchor to. Had to make do a while. Even caught on the drift.
All told? Not a bad day. Tog bit OK so long as we had current. Bit better again when the sun came out.
Time came to haul anchors and head for the barn – sun out, a fresh breeze on our stern.. I’ll take it.
Could have limited quite a few clients with DelMarVa’s 4 fish limit. Instead, only two folks kept even the 2 fish boat limit we have in place. Lots of “third fin rip” marks as fish went back – hope my ALS tags come in tomorrow.
Andrzej Wysocki of Lindenhurst NY took everyone’s pool money with a 25in release.
Chase Domenech was today’s guest reef builder.
Even put the balloon gaff to work. We’ll pick up more and more balloons as weather warms.
Cheers
Monty
