Cape Fair 2/5/17

I put in at 9:00 and threw about everything I had in the boat and  caught 1 fish on 6 different lures. 2 were keepers and 4 were shorties. Caught the 6 fish on a jerkbait, spinnerbait, a-rig, jig, sticko worm and a grub. Had fun and WOW there were boats everywhere up the James by point 15. Crappie boats all over. Beautiful day out but fishing was tuff. Here are the 2 keepers. After fishing until 2:30 I sat on the bank in a lawn chair and just enjoyed the weather and watched the gulls dive bomb the shad for a couple more hours.

I am so happy to be able to enjoy what we have right here in our backyard.  God is good!!!!

Very nice, I was out there today myself, up by Big M.  I don't know if I beat you on size, but I did get 3 keepers and another 15 shorts.  All on the Ned, in 20-30 FOW and around trees, except for a few on a chunk rock bank.  I can't get a shallow fish.

Man you are right about the boats, a dozen rigs in the Big M lot which is a lot for that launch, and boats everywhere.  I can see why, it was a great day to be out fishing!

I thought the same thing. Isn't it a winter Ned jersey?

That's just a gimmick. It won't catch fish. 

 

Lord, I almost apologize...
