Pacemaker Fishing Forum

Finally got my "project boat" out on the water for its first fishing trip.

The boat ran well and served it's purpose perfectly, but unfortunately the fish weren't as cooperative. I towed down to Deltaville and spent all weekend chumming for cobia off Windmill Point...but all I caught was a ray, and a couple little blues that I used for bait.

No fish pics, but this was my view all weekend. Got chased off by a nasty storm on Saturday afternoon but other than that the weather was as nice as I could have asked for.



I did have several long runs that simply dropped the bait and left me with a dead and mangled eel. Another angler told me those were likely small cobia.

Saw some nice fish landed on other boats and heard of a a lot of small ones and a few big ones over the radio, but it just wasn't my turn I guess. I'll definitely be back at it soon!
