Roanoke Rock Fish 2011

First Striper of the year: 19 1/2in.  3-4pounds
Had a Crazy trip down east, fished Weldon on Friday and only caught one fish, which made a very nice dinner. Then we headed to Merchants Mill Pond for some camping and bass fishing: camping was great bass fishing was poor. Saturday we Paddled out of Merchants and headed to the Chowan River and fished in 45mph wind gusts, no luck. To top it all off, we then preceded to "Tread the Needle" west through some of the nastiest storms NC has seen in many years. Crazy first Trip down east!!!
