Fall fishing this year has been off the hook, but the timing has been a little off. Tog fishing was as good as ever, probably still is but everyone has been chasing striped mullet. Never really got on the Rocks until January, but O...M...G...it has been as good as it ever gets. 40" fish aplenty and all within 3 miles of the beach, kinda unusual around these parts. I know this thread is worthless without pics, so here are a few to tease my friend BlueRunner...

Not the best picture, but its raining gannets...

Can't wait until the next trip. May have to bloody her up tomorrow.
 
No BFT? You're slacking bo!

Seriously, That's a nice hog you're holdin there. I wouldn't mind getting one or 12 of those on the end a me rod! Nice catchin! And eatin!
 
No BFT's for us. Have heard of a few in the area. We don't troll as a rule. We tend to cast or jig with 12-20# gear. I'm afraid a 300# charlie could get reel ugly reel fast...
 
Nice job, I missed them a lot when they left this season, you can send them back any time you want Lance:beer:
 
Thanks guys. Life is treating me better than most, I certainly have nothing to complain about. Elaine demands her time on the boat. Gots to keep her happy. #1 son playing basketball. Practice 5 days a week unless we have games. Never get home before 715. Baseball practice has already started on Saturdays and daily practice schedule starts before baseball ends. Just not enough hours in the day. Spent some "quality time" with the little lady Satruday.

Willy, if the weather don't change soon, they may be back before you know it. I hear of lots of fish still north of OC, MD. We actually had to run 2o miles north this weekend to find fish. Sunday, they had moved 3 miles further north??? Whales mixed in with em' made for a happy happy girl on my boat.
 
Here are a few picks from a few weeks back. This is my buddy at the dock and I tried making fish taco's out of them which was good.

We have had a really good season only getting skunked once out of 6 or 7 trips. I have been only keeping one or two fish on the last trips because we have more then we need. I rent a slip in Lynnhaven for $150 which makes it nice unless the fish decide to run too far South.
