Pamunkey River

[basspro48]

Went out to the Pamunkey today with Triton9 and his dad. Conditions were pretty good with a light wind and air temp of about 55 degrees. The water temp ranged from 43 to 45 degrees throughout the day. Triton9's dad started off the day with a nice 1lber. on a rat-l-trap yo-yoed on a riprap bank and a little later another chunky 1lber. on a suspending jerkbait on the same riprap bank. An hour or 2 later I scored a chunky 1.5lber. on a suspending jerkbait off a dock in about 5' of water.  Then Triton9 hauled in 2 keepers also on a suspending jerkbait from a rockpile. All together we boated around 10 fish with

Triton9's dad catching 7 me catching 1 and Triton9 catching 2. We were disappointed that no smallies decided to show up but it was still a good day.

I'm glad someone in VA caught fish yesterday.  :-[ I'll have to try the yo-yo thing next time. Kind of forgot about that.

Glad you had a good time.

I have been trying to get on the water for two weeks now with no luck between work and shopping and social activities.

Taking boat to BPS to have new three bank battery charger installed this week so maybe can go out after Christmas.

How come you all did not try any jigs? There is some good wood on the Pamunkey and I would have thought jigs would have been in your lineup,especially with the sunshine and nice water temperatures.

Also, do you know anything about a big alge plume on Lake Chesdin?  At our open house today at my home two of my friends told me about a big alge plume in Lake Chesdin about two or three months ago so I was wondering if it is still there.

Keep on fishing and Merry Christmas.
