Epic day we had recently! These guys came back for more from last year and a time was had! 5 on at once and so many other epic moments. It’s pretty much as wide open as it gets right now. We are still in Virginia and I’m not sure I see any need to come back to Maryland and deal with what that brings lol… Anyways enjoy the pics!

We catch some really cool stuff when we are down in Virginia. A lot of times there’s Cobia hanging around the outside of the drum schools and a bad cast at the drum can often lead to a golden opportunity to grab a cobia! Both of these fish fell victim to the Invincible Jigs seam swimmer in 7 inch. Invincible plastics are the only plastics I’ve found that will last cast after cast while still providing the baitfish profile that gets the fish going. If you want a shot at some of these cobia or drum, I have the second half of July available to get out and on them. Some of the best fishing for these species can be had in the next few weeks.

Fun trip from a few weeks back. Sick bite right out of the gate. Literally 😉
