Fishing Log
April 24, 2000 - Caught a 16-in. flounder, a 17-in. speckled sea trout, and an 18-in. yellow mouth sea trout: The flounder (on a jig) at Fox Cove during lunch, and the trout on two back to back casts after work, about 3:15pm.
This week, aboard the USS John F Kennedy CV-60, I've been paired with Edgardo Dabu, a Pilipino tech-rep from Norfolk, who was impressed with the flounder I caught April 20. Using a hand line and a jig I gave him, he caught a nice trout next to the carrier. By this afternoon, he was slamming a bunch of jacks crevalle on a new rod and reel he'd just bought - a very excited guy!
There are also some very big bluefish in the basin right now. I watched a sailor land one on light tackle that was about 3-ft. long, one of the biggest I've ever seen. From a distance it looked like a small kingfish. What a rod-bender!
Thursday, April 27, 2000 - Snagged up a small 14 inch flounder at Fox Cove, just after work. Gave it to Stoddard (Andreu).
April (?). 20000 - Released a medium size Jack at the B/C corner and a small flounder at the western corner of C-2.

April 26, 2000 - Midday Wednesday, wind out of the west. Pulled up to the B/C corner and caught a 16 or 17 inch flounder on my first cast (I never shut the truck engine off) and drove home for lunch. Gave the fish to (Bob) Fillinger.
