Frustrating, and beautiful

We have been bouncing around off the cost of Virginia and Delaware looking for an opportunity to catch some fish. It has been beautiful sailing weather. The only catch is, that perfect sailing weather is poor weather for the kind of fishing we were trying to do! We were targeting tile fish, which means we need to fish very deep, which means we need calm winds. It just wasn’t being cooperative!

Right now we are on the edge of the continental shelf, sailing in delightfully cool, clear, weather with calm seas, and enough breeze to get us moving, headed back to the Chesapeake Bay. Our plan is to find a protected harbor to tuck into for the forecast storm coming on Thursday. Then we will see…. Maybe back out to fish? Or explore the bay?

Decisions! Decisions!
