Sunday was dead for us too. No signs of the big girls from Saturday. Saw tons of boats below CCB but didn't see any bent rods

how far south do you go below the CBB? We're gonna try to get out sometime this week for a night trip but not sure whether to stick to LTI or go below the CBB

We fish from Chester island all the way to DOD and the Cherry Flats. Are you fishing from land? I think the night bite wouldbe interesting this week with the warmer Temps. High tide is too late for me to get out.

We have a boat and we'll launch from Ridley Marina. I think we might give below the CBB a try then to see how it is down there. The reports I have read have been convincing me that the big ones are either below the CBB or up north near the Burlington Bristol Bridge.

Hey all, I finally got the boat ready over the weekend. I will be out all day this Saturday. Has anyone used the Frankford Arsenal ramp yet this season. Are the docks in and ready. Let's pick a channel on the 2 ways so we can keep in touch out on the water. I try this every year. Mine will be on Saturday, let's just pick a channel. See yall on the water, Chuckles

Another question all, I may go out of Chester or Ridley Saturday, any bait shops near there. I love Brinkmans, but that is way out of the way if I launch south, thanks, Chuckles

Nice fish chemteach 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I been around but haven't been on the river yet this year been doing mostly saltwater back bay and surf. After last 2 years with all the idiots on the river I kind of been purposely trying to avoid the river this season. I may splash the boat this weekend on the river. Haven't decided yet.

Thanks Mu. I know what you mean! Some people just don't get it. Have you been out with Saltlife? Hope you have done well.
By the way, that was my best day ever on the river. 4 fish ...35in, 42in, 38in and 25in.
