George Poveromo’s World of Saltwater Fishing, http://www.georgepoveromo.com/ ,is here to film a show about Virginia’s trophy rockfish. Saturday, we got the Marc VI in the water and watched the wind blow. Sunday, we went out to pre-fish prior to the arrival of George and his camera crew. The short of it is that we (Charles and I) caught a dozen rockfish in the 44 to 48 inch range. Most of them came after I had taken Charles in to go to work and I had come back out to the CBBT by myself. Capt. Rick Wineman called me and said that they were on big fish and had caught a couple pushing 50 pounds. Thanks Rick!. I went and fished next to them. Tough fishing solo. Managed to catch some pretty fish and got one photo in focus. Now if the fish will just bite when the cameras are rolling!
Note: photos of Rick and David Wineman and Jody Linthicum with their 45-49 pound fish are also included.
