Fished today with the Miss Victoria right out of Kent narrows. Well, we headed south ended up at Poplar Island, what's left of it. Anyway, we were on the Eastern bay side of the island. We slammed the spot hard, thousands were kept. We had 18 people on board. These are medium/large size spot with a few jumbos mixed it. You have to pick thru these fish but the action is so fast that it doesn't matter. If the small ones show up in numbers, the captain was quick to move, no problem. There were some perch caught, a few small stripers, one croaker and lots of hickory shad. Take lots of bait, 2 dozen BW was perfect. $45 and the captain gets $9 for a dozen BW before you leave the dock.

Hey nothing wrong with spot when you get into a bunch of them. It's just the little ones that are a pain. Never heard of that boat but I like it when I hear the capt. moved to another spot when it was nothing but small stuff. How long was the trip? Can you supply some more info on the boat. $45.00 isn't a bad price. I can only run my boat about 5 hrs. on that much gas. Nice to read a CATCHIN' report. At least you were doing it and not complaining how dead the fishing is now.:D Like I said in another thread, the fish are there, you just got to go them. Thanks for the report.:D :D

I would expect that it is docked down
there near the seafood resteraunt
and market. There is only a small
area where the headboats are so it
should not be hard to find. I bet if you
follow that road past the resteraunt
you would see the boat real quick.;)

I'm sure you're right T but I'd like to know what time it leaves and how long does it stay out. Also a phone # would be helpfull.;) I didn't see it listed in the Charter Boat Captain's Ass. which not only lists charter boats on the bay but also headboats. Just doing my homework.;)

I got no stake in this. Just know that
Capt Price has a great rep and a lot of
loyal customers. His boat gets sold out
first and leaves first. Just never been
on it so I cannot speak on it.;)
What is the name of Capt Price's boat?

I guess it does not really matter since
they are basically in the same location.
Just need to get there an hour earlier if
you want a spot as they seem to sell out
quick.
