The 4th of July weekend! Unbelievably we are already at the unofficial half way point of summer around here! Although on the calendar it shows that we are only a few weeks deep into summer, here in northeast Ohio after the 4th of July it seems like it’s all downhill after that and by the 1st of September, well it’s all over but the tears. But for now people are enjoying this long holiday weekend and you know what? I’m going to enjoy mine too the best that I can. Rather then sit in front of a computer screen and try to figure out what to blog about, I’m just going to throw up a few pictures from this past weeks fishing and just call it good!
But if I were to report on this past weeks action for us aboard “The Trophy”, I would be describing it as yet another good week for us! We are still putting in rather full days most everyday and the fishing seems quite slow while we are out there all day, but at the end of the day we’ve had some mighty full fish boxes. I don’t think anybody's left disappointed!
I always touch upon the past weeks weather as well. This past week we had a real mixed bag of extremely pleasant weather and several days of all day long 4 footers which in itself made it tougher to limit everybody out. As always, the early risers that got to the boat as early as possible did the very best. It’s still a extremely strong early morning bite and most mornings even in the bigger chop we usually can catch 6 to 8 fish before daylight ever breaks and the junk fish wake up. That’s big. Then things slow down and we grind it out the rest of the day.
So that’s it for this weeks rather abbreviated report. I’m going to enjoy my extra few minutes that I have to myself by keeping this one a shorter one and spend some little precious time time with friends and family before my daily 7:00pm bed time rolls around. Not much of a life for me these summer months of fishing but hey, it’s “all down hill” after this! I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend!
*We just took a cancellation for Tuesday July 12th for anyone that might be looking...
