We were light on crew for an offshore trip yesterday so we decided to stay inshore and try to catch a king mackerel. There has been a decent bite going on along the Virginia Beach oceanfront the past few weeks. We trolled plugs about 3 miles off of the beach between Rudee Inlet and Sandbridge. There was a good amount of life in that area. We saw a number of cobia but never got a cast on one. Ric Burnley was trolling near us and they caught a 65-pound cobia on a plug. We had about 20 bites. We caught a false albacore, a blacktip, 3 king mackerel and at the end of the day, we had all four rods go down with big red drum. The 3 of us managed to land all 4. We called Ric over when we got the bite, he trolled behind us and all of his rods went down too, more red drum. Good way to finish the day. We had 3 plugs bitten off. The rest of the bites just did not stay tight. Our largest king weighed 45 pounds 8 ounces. The plugs we were using were Rapala Magnums, CD 18 and 22.<\/p>\n
