The much anticipated first fishing trip was a total bust- Not even a bite after 3.5 hours of effort, but it was nice to get out on the water. It was about 60 air temp, which made for some breezy trips to the next spot, but the problem it seems was the water temperatures. It was between 47 and 50 degrees, and Bob, my guide allowed as how anything below 53 degrees is about fruitless- Which it wound up being. But got to see some nice waterfront houses, the lighthouse and downtown up close, went under a couple of bridges, and waved to lots of folks. Hopefully, Bob will ask me out again soon. He showed me photos of previous catches, so the fish are out there for sure. 17 varieties, he says. Saturday, January 16, 2010
