Hi guys! Posted this same "help me" on Tidal Fish...75 people have read it and not one has responded.
I bet I can beat that on this board, ya'll have been great!
I bought a 2006 1801 for the family. Been pulling kids on tubes for a month now...but ready to fish! I am located in Horn Harbor in the lower Chesapeake Bay near New Point Comfort Lighthouse. So, I can fish channels, shallow water over grass, guts, shallow mud bottom and the bay in general.
Interested in knowing what to catch and when! The fish in my immediate area seem to be rocks, specs and reds. I've caught all three off the pier...but only 4 rocks, 3 specks and 1 red (over a 2 year period!).
Can anyone provide any tips on rigs, bait and setups...and what time of day and what tide to fish for best results? I really want to get my young son and daughter into fishing from the boat as they love catching spot and croaker off the pier - but I find they get pretty bored after an hour of no action.
Would love to catch some reds and specks mostly, as the habitat around my home base would seem to be suitable for them.
Also, has anyone ever fished with Chris Newsome?
Appreciate any help!
Thanks
Scott
