Re: Southern Chesapeake Hotspots
It's been awhile since I fished that area, But The most reliable spot in that area for the bigger ones is at the gas dock to the north of the Patuxent River about five miles. <br /><br />Further up the bay there is the discharge from calvert cliffs power plant. <br /><br />I've fished this area later in the fall, October to November time frame, but structure is structure and if they are around in any numbers they should be there. Get there as early as you can because the place loads up with boats quickly.<br /><br />We just used buck tails and such, but the last time I was there people were doing better with live bait eels, bunkers and spot. If the blue fish are around you will need plenty.<br /><br />You might see people fishing at the Ceder Point rips to the south, but my experience is that the fish are really small there.<br /><br />There might also be restrictions about how close you can fish to the gas dock thanks to Osama.<br /><br />pbailey
