I started my day trolling on my jet ski off of Virginia Beach from Rudee Inlet to Cape Henry. I marked tons of bait most of the morning but did not get any bites. I saw a lot of boats picking up and heading South so around noon I ran down the coast to see if anything was happening. I ran almost 20 miles and did not see much going on off of False Cape, then somebody on the radio said they were hooked up into some Blue Fin Tuna further out. I went a couple more miles off shore and saw several boat working some birds. I put lines over and in no time caught several Striped Bass. No tuna that I could tell. Yes, I released them all. After that, I saw pods of hundreds off Striped Bass breaking on the surface, It was a site to see. Off course I took some pictures through the day.
I fished from my jet ski off of Virginia Beach this morning from 0700-1130. Tons of bait and marks but no bites. I heard that a good bite happened shortly after I left. While I was out there were many whales right off of the beach so of course I took some pictures. I used to own the Silverton in the third picture, I sold it about 6 years ago. Glad to see the guy using it. I had it for seven years and put over 3000 hours on the Yanmars it was re-powered with. The first picture looks like they guys are probably saying ” Good God, look at the sounder. Must be a big one under us!”
