While I haven’t seen any Spanish mackerel flying around the Eastern Bay recently, I was fortunate enough to find a school farther south tonight.  I fished onboard Fishadler II with Mark, launching out of Queen Anne Marina on Kent Island.  It’s a full moon which usually means increased current, but we haven’t had much incoming [...]]]> http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/09/04/862/feed/ 5 http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/08/17/the-land-of-pleasant-living/ http://www.chesapeakelighttackle.com/2009/08/17/the-land-of-pleasant-living/#comments Mon, 17 Aug 2009 15:35:28 +0000 Shawn http://chesapeakelighttackle.com/?p=704
