I can’t stop watching that cast at the 4:50 mark to the crossbar of the deeper piling. I’m seeing it in my sleep….really.
Nice to see you out there Monday night. The pics I took from my camera phone didn’t turn out.

Great video Shawn. This will give me some confidence to at least get out and try the BB with artificials.

Thanks for all the comments. For what it’s worth, I had a 40 pounder on Friday evening. I don’t know why we have bigger fish around now, but I’m not complaining. I hooked this fish on the north bridge and it took off through the pilings south. I had to chase to keep from getting spooled and to keep the fish from getting into the south bridge. I’ve never had to chase a fish shorter than 45 inches. It was a good one. It’s possible it was a redfish or black drum, but the head shakes suggested rockfish. I tightened the drag a little to keep the fish off the south bridge pilings and the hook pulled. The big ones that get away are what keep you going back!

It was a pleasure seeing you at the meeting on Thursday. The video I just watched was outstanding and makes me feel like moving closer to be bridge.

I have a few dudes from NC going out with me tomorrow. They will probable be casting 5″ BA’s with 1 ounce jigheads.

Tight Lines,
Tom

Couldn’t locate your alpha fish this morning but had a great morning due to the jig faster after a strike concept.

I hate you. Ok, you just make me feel inferior. Seriously this is a great site and you are Mr Rockfish! I can’t believe you pulled in all those fish in 90 min… That’s how many rock I caught last year

Boy Shawn that is just fantastic, I am drooling! Maybe sometime I could interest you in a nice day of fishing on the upper potomac for smallies in a jet drive! I know 6 inches of water, and boulders that want to eat your hull has to sound fun! I have learned a ton of knowledge about jigging on your site for rockfish! Thanks for being so generous, and sharing your hard learned knowledge and techniques!

Shawn,
Great information. I’ve been reading your bridge articles and have had some success with your techniques but this video was eye opening. I had hand surgery last week so I’m out of commission for another week or so. Can’t wait to get back out on the water and try this. Thanks!
