Sunday saw gale warnings up and to the best of my knowledge no boats left the dock. The usual dedicated fishermen caught a few tog at Indian River Inlet. I’m sorry, but you have to really love a tog to drive 200 miles, sit outside in a gale-force wind to maybe catch a keeper or…

As promised, the weather started going downhill on Wednesday with small craft advisories and they will be up again on Thursday. The latest hurricane, Eta, will be off of our coast on Friday, or so the National Weather Service predicts, and if they are correct, and sometimes they are, then the ocean will be just…
Tuesday was the last good weather day for a while, possibly until spring. I fished the southside of Indian River Inlet again and again I came up empty. I only saw one small tog caught, although I am sure there were others. At Lewes Harbour Marina the Katydid came back from ocean structure with a…
