Heading to Kittery Point to fish with Bushbuck tomorrow at 5:00 AM. :blink: Won a half day trip for two with Mark Drummond at the Freeze-up. Will give a report no matter the outcome. :rolleyes:
I'm confident Mark will put us on fish, whether we can get any or not remains to be seen. :D
Wish us luck. B)

I'll be fishing that area as well. I'll be the guy in the standup kayak. Good luck and have an awesome day!

Agreed. I'm fishing with Mark at least once this summer. It's definitely been a highlight the past few years.

We had an awesome time chasing stripers. Mark Drummond is the man for stripers. A couple casts in and Bushbuck was on.
Squid were the target in a channel we fished and got into a few. Small bait imitations worked elsewhere. Enjoy the pics.
Bushbuck will add to this........I hope. :huh:

Nicely done!

Slower than the other flies. One hit Steve as soon as the fly hit the water and before it moved, took it like a dry fly. Another took one just as it started to move.
