6/7 Vineyard Report

[chcannon]

Went fishing (work event, believe it or not - I didn't have anything to do with planning that one.... ) out of Menemsha. Unfortunately mostly trolling with sand eel umbrella rigs and jigs - not a lot of fly fishing on this trip. Terrible weather in morning (4 foot seas, 50 degree weather) and then great all afternoon (flat as can be, 75 degree weather). Fished with Buddy (tomahawk charters) and Scott McDowell - both good charter captains which I can wholeheartedly recommend. Did catch a nice 30 pounder (again, by trolling - doesn't really count, but still a good fish!)

Just kidding, thats a nice fish any way you get it.

Buddy can catch some really big fish. But, of course, it's bait fishing. He's quite a character, too.

Terry, I know, I know - was SO bummed not to be fly fishing. This was not even remotely sporting, but hey - bunch of non-fishing work types and it made a lot more sense.

Buddy was a complete character...
