Upper Stretches of West Neck "Heating" Up
Eddie Sapp did it Monday, and Charlie Bruggemann did it today--found some nice fish, that is, above the West Neck Creek Bridge.
Said Charlie, "The pig-n-jig and wake bait were the trick today." These baits netted him 6 bass and 1 white perch. His biggest 3 bass weighed in at 1-15, 2-14 and 4-3. The latter was his year-to-date best. "All 3 of these fish came within 20 minutes of each other, along a 50-yard stretch of water," explained my kayaker buddy.
The 4-3 fell for the jig-n-pig. Charlie said the jig initially landed on a log, and as he pulled it off, he let it fall on a slack line. The tell-tale bump came just as the jig reached the bottom, and he set the hook. There would have been one more bass in his totals today--about a 3-pounder--but that fish got away at the boat.
Don't forget to check out Charlie's blog--probably sometime tomorrow afternoon--for his own full report, including the usual video of his day's activities. In case you need it, here's the link: http://vbfishguide.blogspot.com/.
I saw one other friend launch his boat at West Neck today and have asked him to let me know how he did, too, but haven't heard a peep so far. If his report comes a little later, I'll add an "update" to this post.
