  • Claiborne Landing 7/16, Lowes Island Wharf 7/17

    I've been trying new launches in Talbot Comthis summer with mixed results. I hit the incoming at Tilghman Creek (at end of Cockey Rd in Claiborne) yesterday pm from @2:00-6:00. It's a pretty good paddle out towards Miles River and Eastern Bay but nice and protected in the Creek if it's too windy for big water. Caught one 16" striper on a silvery greenish rattletrap in about 5' of water about 50' from a jetty fronting the Miles River. Got some nice fat keeper perch for dinner on the way in off the bottom under piers with peeler.

    I wanted to see what the fuss was all about (I could not make the M &G last week) so I launched about 6:30 am today at Lowes. I finally got on the board with my first keeper of the year, a 22 incher which is also my PB! He took a quarter ounce white jig with a 4" curly tail chartreuse Gulp close to a jetty. Nice to finallyget the keeper skunk off!

    I met and chatted up Paul at Lowes. He seems like a real nice guy and said you guys really caught some fish. That's a good launch, convenient and the $5 was certainly worth it for me today.
