Way Offshore Bottom Fishing For Black Sea Bass at Virginia Beach

If youre ever in the Tidewater Virginia area, you simply must take a way offshore fishing trip from the Virginia Beach fishing Center at Rudee Inlet. Theyre located at 200 Winston Salem Ave. (757-491-8000). Ask about Rudee Tours. Youll find a full service marina which offers head boats, daily fishing charters, beach parking, and a full service store. You can also find and book a decent hotel close by.

These way offshore trips are different than regular offshore trips. The most noticeable difference is the price, but when you see the size, and quality of your catch, youll see it was money well spent. These trips usually start in late winter, and continue through February (depending on what the captain says).

The head boat fleet is the finest in Virginia Beach. The targeted fish on this particular trip is the coveted Black Sea Bass, an excellent dining choice. The meat is flaky and white. I like them fried, grilled, or stuffed with shrimp, crabmeat and baked. This popular bottom fish can be caught in and around wrecks, and on rocky bottoms. Its appearance is black with bluish green specks. You should handle these fish with care because of their stiff dorsal fins. They can really hurt. They average 1-2 pounds, but the way offshore trips will yield larger catches. I have caught fish in the 5 pound range. Youll work plenty hoisting them off the bottom, but what fun youll have doing it. (A helpful hint) Dont wait until the boat stops to get your rigs tied, and hooks baited. When the captain says, dropem, make sure youre ready to do just that, and you wont regret it, especially on the first 2 or 3 stops. Thats when you really catchem. Also, if you get hung in the wreck, just let out about 8-10 ft. of line, then start reeling it in like crazy. If that doesnt work, yell for the mate.

You dont have to worry about licenses, bait or even a rod and reel for that matter. At the Virginia Beach Fishing Center, theyve got it all covered. All you need is about $120, some guts, a cooler for lunch, beer, or whatever you require, and its on. Oh, and a few extra bucks for the mates. They work hard for your tips.

These captains are safety first. They wont take chances with your life to make a buck. I learned this first hand when I booked a way offshore trip. I paid the man, climbed aboard, and off into the cold dark and misty December morning we motored. About 1 hour into our 3-4 hour trek, the captain informed us that due to rough seas, (which we hadnt run into yet), we would be returning to Rudee Inlet, where he would refund our money, and take us out another day. Well, I dont know about you, but given the choice, I choose the captain who doesnt wait until hes 55 miles off the coast of Virginia Beach in rough seas to realize hes more than way offshore, hes in way over his head. Frankly speaking, if its rough seas, or bad weather ahead, and El Capitan knows this? Thats not the time to be profit driven or ruled by the male ego. Lord knows I love fishing, but at the end of the day, I wanna go hooooome! So, go book yourself a nice hotel, (because after one of these trips you wont feel like driving) and upon your return, shower, have dinner, check out the high energy night life, get good nights sleep and head home the next day. You will have had a safe and adventurous fishing trip off the coast of Virginia Beach, with plenty to show for it.

Finally, check out the fish cleaning station to the right as you disembark. For a nominal fee theyll clean your catch so all you have to do is putem on ice. Happy fishing!

I guess you could say Carl is more of a catcher than fisher. In the McKoy household, travel and fishing is a family passion.

Your Personal Kyoto Protocol - Our Individual Responsibility To Reduce Greenhouse Gases

It is now time for each and every one of us to make a positive effort to help reduce the impact of Global Warming on our good earth. The official cause for global warming has been unequivocally determined at the 2007 IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) meeting in Paris France. Established in 1988 by the the United Nations, the IPCC has just completed its 4th Assessment Report, which has established that global warming has been human-caused and for the most part greenhouse gases have been the largest contributor to the acceleration of global warming. Effects of global warming will definitely be experienced in this century.

Reducing greenhouse gases. What can we individually do in-parallel-to and in-advance-of government decrees, programs and laws?

We can do lots! But here are FOUR areas to consider right now!

1. The always can-do-more Recycle-Reuse now includes in our house the extended use of jars or plastic containers to store leftovers. And they are used in my workshop for paint, paint thinners and wood filler before recycling them. Keep containers and jars in use longer and resist the use of those burping containers.

2. Encourage your employer to implement a partial or full Work From Home Program (Telecommuting as it was referred to in earlier times). This is particularly appropriate for office jobs that involve sales, marketing and telephone support. Fact is, most of these roles are characterized by computer / web use, telephone / conference calls and on-site customer visits. Think of the reduced automobile traffic that could result from such a responsible program. Even if your office were to implement a 1 or 2 day per week Work from Home program, you reduce gas emissions and while creating cubicle sharing program, which will also reduce business overhead costs. Progressive companies like Dell, Microsoft and Sun Microsystems have such Work From Home Programs.

3. Plan, reduce and eliminate those automobile trips to the mall, grocery store, sports or fitness event. Car Pool with neighbors and consolidate trips for supplies. Wow! Just like they did in pioneer times. Time to plan one or two days per week when you do all the going into town for supplies. Walk, take the bus or subway instead of your carbon generating greenhouse gas emitting vehicle.

4. On-line shopping as an alternative way to shop. You not only save gas but also reduce the wear-and-tear on on your vehicle. No travel time and no parking expenses further respects your valuable time and saves money. Products purchased on-line are conveniently delivered directly to your door. On-line internet shopping makes even more sense to those in rural communities, where they are typically farther away from shopping centers.

Time to get to know your neighbor, expand your circle of friends and acquaintances, reduce the use of your automobile(s). Claim it as your own Personal Kyoto Protocol.
