Great Wicomico Pogey Boat on October 23, 2011© Photos Posted by Mark Miller © Hi-Res Source
The winds and seas had been high for about 3 weeks now and I woke up to find the winds had died down to 5 knots, so I headed out with my wife Pam and my youngest son Luke (14). We stopped by a Lightering Ship briefly to catch some hard tails for live bait and then went to the Great Wicomico Pogey Boat.
We caught some nice fish before making a dive to feed them. Luke and I took down a homemade frozen treat for them and it looks like they really enjoyed it. The visibility was very poor due to the recent winds, but Luke and I found a way to enjoy it anyway. Due to the poor conditions, we did not make any further dives.
The seas remained calm so we had an enjoyable day that encompassed 59.8 nautical miles, 7 hours, and 28.9 gallons of fuel.
