Mathews County 8/10-8/11

We went camping in Mathews County over the weekend and I got to try a new spot. Got on the water early each day looking for trout but I was quickly distracted by Spanish mackerel. They were in the shallows tearing through baitfish and jumping all over the place. Catching them on light tackle in 2 feet of water is a lot of fun!

Both days were basically the same. I'd cast trout lures until I saw Spanish jumping, and then start throwing metal. All in all I caught Spanish, specks, weakfish, blues, croaker, reds, houndfish, and a ton of stripers. The Spanish and specks were good size but everything else was pretty small. Too hard to keep count this time lol.

Crazy right? It was a little chilly first thing in the morning. Didn't wear it for very long but it came in handy later for wiping fish slime off my hands.

Nice report! Those fish must be a lot of fun on light tackle.


Together we'll fight the long defeat.
