Fishing for rockfish in the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis, help?

Okay so Ive been going out fishing for rockfish by kayak in the Bay and have been struggling with catching anything. When its real flat out weve tried using poppers but havent had any success. We also tried some bait without a ton of luck there as well, anyone have some advice on what kind of bait we should be using (live or not, what kind of fish, where we could get it?) or any real nice spots around Annapolis, like somewhere near tali point, bay ridge or sandy point?? Thanks so much any advice would be amazingly appreciated

How pheasable would a trip along the east coast of US be in a kayak?

Basically I have been thinking a lot lately about doing this, I regularly go several miles out in the ocean fishing out of my kayak. And have been thinking about just taking off one day along the coast towards a destination of florida. (from delaware) So in your opinions the average cost of the trip would be, wanting to penny pinch as much as possible. Water and rice wouldn’t bother me one bit. As I’m an avid fisherman and could easily get a fish here and there for extra protein. Also, I have a sail rig constructed for my kayak that would assist me in my journey.That being said, Looking for some opinions on this idea.
