If you’re reading this website, chances are you pore over everything you can get your hands on about fishing in the Chesapeake Bay.  If you’re like me, you have favorite authors and preferred books or periodicals, and you can’t wait for the next issue to come along.  The work of one of my favorite Chesapeake writers can’t be found in newspaper columns or outdoor magazines, but I’ve [...]]]> http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2010/07/08/maryland-anglers-log/feed/ 2 http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/09/02/straight-up-or-on-the-rocks/ http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/09/02/straight-up-or-on-the-rocks/#comments Thu, 03 Sep 2009 03:18:59 +0000 Shawn http://chesapeakelighttackle.com/?p=854
Temperatures have cooled dramatically in the past couple of days after Tropical Storm Danny pushed on up the coast and a strong cold front moved across the Bay. I wanted to see what change the cooler weather might have made to the Mid-Bay bite we’ve been following since March.  My buddy Rich and I launched [...]]]> http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/09/02/straight-up-or-on-the-rocks/feed/ 3 http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/07/15/hopskotch-across-the-bay/ http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/07/15/hopskotch-across-the-bay/#comments Wed, 15 Jul 2009 15:32:54 +0000 Shawn http://chesapeakelighttackle.com/?p=503
Just when I thought the western shore was going to turn into the Summer striped bass hotspot, the fish showed up back over on the east side last night.  Tim & Mike joined me on Crockett’s Reel for a 5:30 PM launch from Shipping Creek on Kent Island.  We buzzed the Eastern Bay stopping only [...]]]> http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/07/15/hopskotch-across-the-bay/feed/ 3 http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/07/02/bridges-breakers/ http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/07/02/bridges-breakers/#comments Thu, 02 Jul 2009 20:48:34 +0000 admin http://chesapeakelighttackle.com/?p=340
Tuesday was easily the best evening of my four fishing trips over the past six days. We had a flood incoming in the early afternoon, then kept outgoing current for over 5 hours past the predicted low. Outgoing has been the ticket in the area. Found some fish in the old haunts and also some [...]]]> http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/07/02/bridges-breakers/feed/ 0 http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/05/23/mid-may-in-the-mid-bay/ http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/05/23/mid-may-in-the-mid-bay/#comments Sat, 23 May 2009 23:36:49 +0000 admin http://localhost/wordpress/?p=174
Memorial Day Weekend marks the start of summer for many Chesapeake boaters, but it means a slow-down in fishing for those of us who have been out all along. All the boat traffic on the Bay can put the fish in hiding, but it’s a tough time of year no matter what. Many [...]]]> http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/05/23/mid-may-in-the-mid-bay/feed/ 0
