Now that's a mess of white perch and spot! | |
Here's the largest bluefish we've caught in years -- 11 1/2 pounds, caught on a surgical hose while trolling July 29 on a day when most of the blues were 3 pounds or less. | |

Captain "Worm", with the first legal flounder of the season. We just couldn't find very many of these flatties to make targeting them worthwhile. | |

No, it's not a jellyfish. This is what happens when you try to take fireworks photos with a shutter spped that's too low... | |
Part of the Ray Ham crew, out to watch the Chesapeake Beach fireworks show on July 3. | |

A couple of young cuties out to watch the fireworks. |
