In mid-June one usually can drop
a line anywhere in Chesapeake wa
tiers and be assured of catching fish
at any time. With the exception OF
the time element that should be true
OF this week end, using the last six
days as a criterion. The fish, how
ever, are showing some preference as
to their time of feeding. and there is
nothing by which to gauge their in
clination beforehand. One day they
seem to select the early morning
hours, the next 1t is the late after
noon or early evening. According
to the moon, and our faith in it Is
constant, fishing should be good
throughout the dark hours for at
least another five days.
Another guide to the best times Of
fishing is the solunar tables. The
major periods have been the most
productive day after day. We always
have found them so. with everything
else equal, for a period Of nearly
three years. We fish by them when
ever 1t is possible.
Solomons Island always has been
our first choice as a fishing ground
because boats. guides and accom-
modations are as good as one can
obtain anywhere on the bay. We
have recommended it for that rea-
son, and because it can be fished in
almost any kind of weather. but
during the last two years the fishing
there wasn't all that one had a right
to expect. Why, no one knows. This
year, however, we believe it is better
than for many seasons.
Hardhead Keep Biting.
The hardhead have held up since
the start of the season and still
are as numerous and large as ever.
The boats are fishing them from
Drum Point to the other side of the
steamboat channel. With them are
running the largest Norfolk spot we
ever have seen, and small trout are
so numerous we continue to wonder
what the September run up the Pa
tuxent will be.
In the past, regardless of how
poor the fishing has been, the
"Lumps" up the river have pro-
duced exceptional trout fishing dur
Ing the nights of the September full
moon. The one off st. Ieonards
Creek, since Ed Bowen introduced
us to 1t several years back, has been
favorite spot. With so many trout
IN bay waters this year it should
produce the kind of fishing you often
hear about but seldom experience.
Another group that has had tough
nshing for the last several sum-
mers, and again is producing in
oldtime fashion this season in Her
ring Bay.
Many of the Deale boats are fish
ing the Gooses and across under
Poplar Island, because their parties
wish to do so, but the short trips,
fishing Holland Point, are bringing
In better catches.
Hardhead have continued to bite
since May. The trout appeared first
nearly month ago. Since, their
numbers have increased until the
bottom appears literally alive with
small fish. During the last week
larger fish have made an appear
ance and it appears we soon will be
able to brag again about Holland
Point Bar being one of the best fish,
ing grounds in the upper bay.
With the trout are Norfolk spot,
as large as we ever have caught any,
where. They will average nearly a
pound and not until this week did
We catch any we would class as nor

few and far between, but the small
