Yankee's Sandy Creek Shootout

[Yankee Troller]

Friday

My brother fished down from the Oak on Friday. He ran East to Sandy and fished the water between there and Btraddocks. Catching fish wasn't the problem, but size was. They had a few in the upper teens, but mostly 2yr old specimens. 

 

Saturday

We broke the pier heads at 5am and we were off to home port. Set down in front of the ladders and worked the water between the flats and the front door all day. Mupped DW Sea Sick's were on our center rigger in the bath water. Those took one or two of our weigh fish. A meat rig with Familiar Bite that tracked bottom and another 15-20' above it kept us busy. Coppers were fairly quiet, but our 500 did take a weigh fish with a meat rig towards the end of the day. Our divers were out 200-250 with flashers and A-TOM-MIK flies. UV Pro Am, Glow Blue Hammer, Big Fin, and Ultra Green Glow all took fish. The best troll was a East troll. We were lucky to have a charter group of fishing dudes, so we picked up and ran up hill so we didn't waste much time on West trolls. I think that was a key factor in keeping the rods moving. We ended the day in 2nd place. with just under 91lbs. This is a great event, and the tournament committee is a great group of people. We always look forward to this event, and so does our charter.
