Virginia October

Summer is over, everyone should put their boats away. I mean everyone else. I’m fishing. I did some trolling along the beach and fished a bit on one of the reefs in the bay. Cobia are still around. The ribbonfish are abundant. I caught Spanish mackerel up to 5 pounds. In the bay, I caught small tautog and black drum. I tangled with some big reds that I did not catch. The offshore boats are coming in with tuna and flying billfish flags. The coastal wrecks are holding triggerfish, sea bass, and flounder. It is a good time to be fishing.
