"Just North of us"

"They're getting closer"

Reports have the Bay rockfish just north of

Cape Charles, up around buoy 42 to buoy 48.

Fishing has been slow, with a few anglers

picking up some nice Rockfish in the 40" to 48" class

in the lower Bay. Reports have a short bite during

the hours of, 4pm to 7pm and 4am to 7am.

Water Temps are getting better, need to drop

just a few more degrees to bring down the main

school of Rocks and trigger a good bite.

The RockHound has a few dates open during

the week of Dec. 26th to the 29th. Walk ons

charters will be available every Friday

and  Saturday night to Dec. 31st.

Tight lines,

Capt. Pete
