Quoted: Where do you fish, Cliffy?

It depends. During the spring and fall, I concentrate on bass in the Potomac. During the summer, I split my time between stripers in the vicinity of the 301 bridge and various species in the Chesapeake.
The trip I was hoping to take this week is one I do 5 or 6 times a summer. I leave work at 5 and drive down to Gwynn's Island in Matthews county. Me and two friends stay at the Islander hotel which is right on the water. We fish and drink heavily right in front of the hotel. The next day, we fish the Piankatank river and (if the winds are calm) the main bay. It is mostly light tackle action with artificials for speckeled trout, weakfish, stripers (catch and release only), flounder, croaker and blues. Sometimes, we will anchor up and try for cobia as well.
We drive home Thursday evening and can be back at work on Friday.
If anyone here is interested in stuch a trip, let me know. I've got a 20' Ranger bay boat and I try to get out for this several times during the summer. Weather and scheduling problems prevented it this year so far.
Oh yeah... since Wednesday is my only evening off during the week, it is either shooting or fishing every week.
