I was fishing yesterday morning in my home waters of the Chester River which feeds into the Chesapeake bay. This fish measured out at 31 inches. I caught him on a Rich Murphy Conomo Special after chasing a bait pod for about 1/2 an hour which my finder showed at least 6 feeding fish underneath it. I installed a trolling motor on my 17" Montauk this year which got me within casting distance. This made a big difference. After about a 15 minute fight, I was able to land this fish by hand.
After numerous attempts and failures, this took well over two seasons to accomplish. I changed rods and lines twice for better casting and accuracy. In the end, it paid off.
If anyone is interested and wants to try this sometime, ley me know.
