East River

Post by arcadiainc »

The wife and I were in the water about 8:30 am and managed to find East River. Bait fish schooling and a few strikes around. By the time the wind was kicking up white caps. No luck with spoons and jigs. Went up river a few miles and was met by several boats, all looking and no catching. By this time the wind was howling. East river was white capped in most places. Tally for the day. One 19 inch sheepshead. Took the sheepie by a store with scales and was told it weighted four pounds and 18/10's (????). Did not ask any questions. Just left while I was ahead. All in all a good day

Yep, I remember. One of the most miserable fun days I've ever had.
