Exploring Kiptopeke and the Concrete Ships

This 4th of July I had Saturday off and I was determined to head south and find a Cobia in the Chesapeake Bay.  The weather wasn't perfect with scattered thunderstorms and afternoon winds but it looked like we had a nice weather window on Monday morning. We loaded up everything and decided to head out Sunday around noon and do a little scouting and pier fishing that afternoon/night. We got down there around 4 and as we crossed the CBBT we could see the bay was really rough. We made it to Kiptopeke state park and decided to launch and explore the Concrete ships the plan was to also catch some Croakers that could be used as bait or chum when we went out to fish for the Cobia in the Am. 

Muddy Shenandoah Kayak Fishing

Daily Routine: Wally World



Decided to go to the Pond that has been a consistent producer all year. We went out yesterday as our second stop pond hopping right before dark and caught a couple. So we hit it again this evening and it didn't disappoint. I had not caught a real fish on topwater yet this year so I threw a Heddon torpedo while Collin used a the fluke. It was cloudy with sporadic drizzle perfect for topwater and the big fish were eager to hit on top.
