                  I'm going to have to miss as well guys. I just found out I have company from out of town in all weekend I don't think I'm going to be able to get away. If I do it will be for a few short hours very early on Saturday. I hope you guys kill it down there and take a lot of pictures!

                  If someone could pick up some stickers for me, I'd appreciate it!!!

                        Coffee - Tackle Shop

                        Thanks, I believe there are around 10 confirmations at this point. Wanted to let everyone know that there is a Tackle shop/convience store, on the right just after you cross the Tilghmand Island bridge, they open at 0500 will have fresh coffee. Harrisons will be 1/4 to 1/2 mile past it on the left or if you want you can launch at Dogwood Harbor, it is a public boat ramp, you will see Harrisons marina straight out from the ramp. Advantage there is that you can back right up to the ramp, Harrisons will have to move your kayak a short distance.

                          Count me in. But I have A 10 foot sit inside, was going out to look for new sit on top but decided to wait to test out the Hobie, if any one thinks it will be a problem for the sit inside on Sat please let me know.

                          Thanks
                          Don't know if it works until you try it.

                            I'll be fishing out of a 10 ft sit-in yak as well Tucked-in. Shouldn't be a problem unless it is really rough. I'm new to fishing this area and I was wondering what to expect / what types of fishing would be most productive in this area? Rock's, white perch, flounder, blues etc etc? Looking forward to the trip! Good Fishin

                              Chimo, Tucked In - it is possible that all the fish you mentioned will be around, in a couple more weeks with cooler weather, cooler water, blues and rockfish will move up the Choptank, heard there are some small breakers around already, would bring topwater baits plus nightcrawlers or bloodworms (Gulp plastic bloodworms if you don't want to mess with live bait). Shouldn't need more then 1/2 to 3/4 oz weight/jigheads. Bring your favorite perch jig also. If you are fairly new to this you can go right out of the marina into the Knapps Narrows channel underneath the drawbridge many docks, pilings etc to fish in calm water. Glad you are able to join us.
