Roanoke River Rockfish 5-12
I made the long trip to Weldon this past Saturday. The river has been flooded for a week or so. I waited for it to get back to normal and think I bout waited too long. The fish seem to have spawned and the bigger fish were not in the mix for me anyway. I caught the smallest class of fish there I've ever caught,lots of 14"-16" fish.The cut bait bite was the best I've saw there, it was about as good as the live bait bite. The eel bite was almost nonexistent. Some years they will eat the eels up and some years they won't bite them.The lord blessed us with a safe successful trip. Boated 80 Rockfish and 7 catfish,enough to get a small case of the " Rockfish Rash" on my thumb..
The lonely eel biter
Here's # 63 & 64, one of the many doubles of the morning, you can see the glass of fish that was biting.
I hope you enjoy the pictures. I have not been fishing much,but hope to change that soon.

Long time no hear from. Congrats on catching plenty, but not the normal class of fish you usually post from the river. Still looks like a fun trip by the numbers, if not by the size. Thanks for sharing, enjoyed the read and pictures.
