Fish Report 5/28/15
Catching Sea Bass 
Trouble From Maine To Texas 
A Canned Letter

Lots Of Room Saturday, May 30! Beautiful Forecast Right Through Monday! 

Check This Video Out - From Multi-Agency Work In the Baltimore & Norfolk Canyons. I hope some of these folks can be brought inshore to study habitat production in fisheries we're trying to restore.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NS_uZX77jfs 

Until Flounder Show: Sailing Daily For Sea Bass. Saturday's 6:30 to 3:30 - $125.00 – Otherwise 7 to 3 at $110.00.. Fishing Is Much Improved from Opening Week, But Is Not 'Hot' Compared To Early In The Management Period. 
Reservations Required at 410 520 2076 - LEAVE YOUR BEST POSSIBLE CONTACT NUMBER - Weather Cancelations Are Common - I Make Every Attempt To Let Clients Sleep In If The Weather's Not Going Our Way..  

Be a half hour early! We always leave early! 
..except when someone shows up right on time. 
Clients arriving late will see the west end of an east bound boat. With a limited number of reserved spots, I do not refund because you over-slept or had a flat..

Dramamine Is Cheap Insurance! Crystalized Ginger Works Great Too. It's Simple To Prevent Motion Sickness, Difficult To Cure.  If You Suffer Mal-de-Mer In A Car You Should Experiment On Shorter Half-Day Trips First! (Wockenfuss Candies sells crystalized ginger locally - Better is Nuts.Com.. Chewable Meclizine is a good pharmaceutical with Scopolamine Patches the gold standard.)

Bring A Cooler With Ice For Your Fish – A 48 Quart Is Fine For A Few People. 

Small-scale reef building that adds up over time; on my last fishing trip we dropped reef-block number 11,216 over the stern rail. Now 2,212 at Doug Ake's Reef – 1,254 at Saint Ann's - 372 at Al Giles’ Barge - 600 at Eagle Scout Reef - plus 10 at an as-yet unnamed reef group on Sue Foster’s Isle of Wight Reef.. 
Please Sponsor Reef Building At ocreefs.org - Thanks! 

Greetings All, 
Fishing today, Thursday, May 28, was much more in line with what I'd expect in 2015. Weather better than expected & a sustained bite at times; several clients made it to double digits. Chan's wasabi & soy, along with some homemade red-chili sauce, made for a memorable lunch. 

People are asking for a 'cut & paste' letter - one they can send legislators & regulators. I hope anyone sending such a letter would personalize it with their own thoughts.. 
I was surprised & glad to see CCA had written in support of new legislation. Calvary for sure.. https://www.votervoice.net/COASTAL/Campaigns/41106/Respond It doesn't get any simpler than CCA's 'voter voice'.. 

Believe me, there's real trouble in my industry from Maine to Texas. NOAA has its black hood on.. 
Congress takes up debate shortly. The President's already threatening a veto based on input from his cabinet, otherwise this is a supremely bipartisan effort.  
Send Your Thoughts. 
Regards,
Monty
