With the good ER report I decided to head out there.  The wind was supposed to be down but ooooooooooooh no, 15kts+.  I couldn't fish the area I wanted so I never got anything to take home.  I say I can't say I didn't catch 'jack' because I caught a 16" crevalle jack.  That's something I've never seen in the river before!

The other weird thing was being surrounded by a school of ribbonfish.  They were jumping all around me.  I caught one but could have caught alot more if I had tossed out a small Kastmaster or something like that (don't know why I would want to.  I've caught one of these monster looking things in the same area.

Stupid weird fish.  The crevalle jack fought pretty hard, I thought it was a bluefish until I got it up beside the boat.

thats quite a catch there.  was that just a lone jack or did you see signs of a school?  thoes ribbion fish are supposed to be some the the best king mackeral bait there is. 

That's crazy!   Is this a sample of  "Global Warming"?  As a kid I used to catch these fish all along the reefs of Guam.  Sometimes it would be with just a shiny hook and a piece of surgical glove.

Ive caught 3 in Lynnhaven. One on a sabiki, one I snagged, and one in the cast net. At first I though they might have been pompano but seeing that pic im sure the were crevalle. All mine were under 8". I bet that was quite the fight.

I've caught them in Rudee hook & line, along with a banded rudderfish that was 16". I've caught a snowy grouper in my cast net, there... at Lynnhaven, I got a cuttlefish in my cast net... those things are friggin' WEIRD.

That's the great thing about fishing, you never know what you'll pull up.
