The winds were pretty strong today, 25-30 kts out of the NW, so I decided to fish the Hot Ditch and Cove in Chesapeake Va. I dropped the Ski at Chesapeake Yachts and fished for about 5 hours and managed to catch 5 small trout. Three on big minnows, one on a small spot and one slow trolling a mirror lure. Not hot and heavy but a good day just the same and probably did not even burn a gallon.
On a side note, Don Lancaster asked me to fill in for him tomorrow so I will be hosting his radio show " Fishing Tidewater" on WHKT 1650 AM. The show airs from 7-9 am every Saturday. Hopefully I will do Don justice while he is out. I have invited Captain Pete of Rockhound Charters http://www.rockhoundcharters.com/ to be on with me. Give us a call at 757-465-6700 and tell us fishing story. Here are a couple of pictures, my wifes cat was not happy because there were no fish scraps for him today.

I thought word was that ramp closed to the public, not that I ever use it. BTW, that was me who came by you between the HRBT spans on Saturday afternoon. Did you do any good then? All I managed were some small spot, pigfish and black willie, no striper.
 
I believe they have changed thier mind again about the ramp. I had two slot stripers at the HRBT on Sat. using live spot.
