Short Notice Walk-On Big Success Today…..Thanks to the guys who braved it!

Bill from Chambersburg PA with a huge flats light tackle jigged fish…..he caught this one with a 6″ Chartruese BKD in about 6′ of water on a tough catching day….good job Bill!!!!!!

Had a short notice cancel on a trip and threw up a walk-on trip……some brave guys jumped on it in short notice and came from a long distance…..two teachers from Wilkes Barre and Bill from Chambersburg PA.  Let them know fishing was tough but they didn’t wince and made the trip.  I’m glad they did and so were they!  We didn’t catch big numbers but had some really big fish today.  So glad the short notice walk-on turned out so good!  Thanks Guys and good job on a tough day!

This afternoon was also tough on numbers but another really big fish!  Eric Hood and crew joined me for an afternoon gig….the catching wasn’t easy but the fish we caught were nice……Here’s Eric with a true whopper!

Eric Hood and a whopper light tackle Rockfish…..40+ and then some!

Fishing at the flats seems to be picking up but numbers aren’t great and fish aren’t caught without much dedicated casting and moving around to find and eager Striper…..maybe tomorrow will be easier…..I hope!  I like Easy darn it!!!!!  I’m ready for that!

Walk-On Trip Tomorrow! 15 Apr 2013……Fishing is tough but ripe to get good!

Susquehanna River Beauty!

Firmly into my second week of the Susquehanna Flats.  The first week was great out of the gate but has since gotten really tough.  Looks like the fish on the flats moved up the Susqy River on Tuesday to feed on Herring……reports are many Stripers are in the Susqy River getting caught on Shad Baits and Bass Baits.  The Herring in the river will spawn and come back out  of the river….when that happens the Stripers will be back on the flats.  Should happen anytime now!  Tomorrow could be a great day!

Had a short notice cancel on a trip for tomorrow…..walk-on trip is going to happen!

Susqy Flats was a pleasant surprise on my first day…..Friday 5 April.  First trip of the day I ran around all over looking and not finding.  Finally at about 1030 a.m. I located a nice slug of Stripers on a channel edge and they were hungry.  We caught for about 2 hours using BKD’s  ( www.basskandydelights.com ) .  Started my afternoon trip and it didn’t take long….we found a bunch of fish near a shoreline and had them for the whole trip.  Caught well over 100 stripers in 4 hours!  Good stuff!

The bite was good for 4 days….day 5 was difficult…only finding 25 fish all day…..day 6 was horrible but I had a great crew…we had fun and the weather was perfect….problem was the fish departed the flats.  Every year fish leave the flats and then they show up again.  They follow herring up the rivers and they leave the flats to the south to spawn and chase herring around.  Every year they come and go and come and go again.  Just the way it is at the Susqy Flats.

I’m home right now….did yard work today and I’ll be heading back to the fish camp at the Susqy to start fishing again on Saturday.  Hoping some fish found there way back to the flats!

Susqy Flats Trips on temporary hold for now……Starting on Friday, April 5!

Because of cold water at the flats and a lack of great catching possibilities I’m staying at Calvert Cliffs until the 4th of April ……. I will  be evaluating the future weather outlook in order to make a decision about when I’m heading to the flats.  New reports and water temps on the rise have made my decision to start at the Susqy Flats on 5 April.  I’ll be putting up daily status updates on my site about whats going on at the flats……let’s hope for lots of fish!
