Second trip we launched from Callvile. Since it was during the week and wasn't busy we tried fishing big sandy beach. Again we launched around midnight. Got lots of bites/nibbles from the dinks. We both caught a couple stripers. Gave this area up after the sun was up for awhile and people started showing up to the beach. Went back past the marina into some cove where there was a floating dock with some kind of equipment on it. Shored the boat to explore the shore. I left a worm under a clear bobber in the water while we were exploring. Came back and found I had a small LMB on the line. His head was almost as big as his body. Since I caught a LMB we decided to anchor just a little ways off shore and give it a try. Twice in this area my line was what seemed to be cut in half. Once while I was bobbin a worm and again when soaking corn. Could this have been from a turtle chopping on my line? Or was it just cut from rubbing on rocks? Caught the stripers on chovies. Caught the LMB on night crawler.
