User 284190339 · 05 – 05 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday was a cold day for the fourth of May. These nasty conditions did not deter 170 surf fishermen from participating in the annual Old Inlet Spring Surf Fishing Tournament Jim Haug scored 181 points to win $750 for 1st place in the Open Division.…

User 284190339 · 05 – 03 – 24 Fishing Report Thursday was a warm day at the beach, but Friday the wind will go east and the temperature will drop 30 degrees. Fish were caught. But it was a slow pick at best. Patty at Captain Bones and Steve at Smith Bait both reported that…

User 284190339 · 05 – 02 – 24 Fishing Report Wednesday was a bit breezy at the beach and fishing was a slow pick at best. Lewes Harbour Marina reported that the Katydid did run out, but only returned with 15 keeper tog for the day. One private boat fished for tog at the Outer…

User 284190339 · 04 – 29 – 24 Fishing Report The warm weather arrived on Sunday, but it didn’t set the fishing on fire. Julie at Lewes Harbour Marina said blues were still around the fishing pier at Cape Henlopen State Park. Cut or whole mullet seemed to be the best bait while SP Minnows,…

User 284190339 · 04 – 28 – 24 Fishing Report I am sure warm weather is out there somewhere, but not here on Saturday. Bill at Henlopen Tackle reported that Madison hit the surf again with mullet bait and once again she was rewarded with a bluefish almost as tall as she is. Gary also…

User 284190339 · 04 – 27 – 24 Fishing Report Friday was just a bit better than Thursday, but the east wind early in the day kept boats at the dock or on their trailers. The wind was not enough to keep surf casters from the beach where big blues were caught on cut bait…

User 284190339 · 04 – 26 – 24 Fishing Report Thursday was a repeat of Wednesday at the beach. Small craft advisories were up so no boats went out and the red hot bluefish action was cooled off considerable by the east wind. Julie at Lewes Harbour Marina said big blues were caught at the…

User 284190339 · 04 – 25 – 24 Fishing Report With small craft advisories flying no boats left the dock or trailers on Wednesday. The winds cut down on the bluefish action as well. Lewes Harbour Marina reported no boats left the dock, but they did hear of a few blues caught from the fishing…

User 284190339 · 04 – 24 – 24 Fishing Report Tuesday was a nice day at the beach until the wind kicked up out of the southwest. I stopped by Lewes Harbour Marina and found out the Katydid went out, but came back early due to increasing winds but still had a few tog. Big…

User 284190339 · 04 – 23 – 24 Fishing Report Monday was bright and sunny at the beach so I decided to go fishing, I have never caught a black drum from the beach so I went up on Broadkill Beach to give it a try. There was a gentleman filling his tires while I…

User 284190339 · 04 – 22 – 24 Fishing Report Sunday was cold and damp at the beach. Lewes Harbour Marina reported blues and stripers caught from the fishing pier on Cape Henlopen State Park.

User 284190339 · 04 – 21 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday was right chilly in the morning, but it got really nice in the afternoon. I attended the outdoor show in Harrington where I spoke with Burt from Hook ‘em and Cook ‘em who said he has seen the first flounder from the Back Bays.…

User 284190339 · 04 – 18 – 24 Fishing Report Wednesday saw cloudy, cool weather at the beach and very little fishing. Lewes Harbour Marina reported nothing going on at their shop. The weather looks fishable over the weekend so perhaps a few boats will run for tog or drum. Old Inlet Bait and Tackle…

User 284190339 · 04 – 15 – 24 Fishing Report The wind machine continued on Sunday with winds at 15 to 20 and gusts to 30 with small craft advisories into Monday morning. Once we get through Monday, things look good for a while. There was some good news. Dan at Dan’s Tackle in Milton…

User 284190339 · 04 – 14 – 24 Fishing Report If you were out and about on Saturday, I don’t have to tell you how hard the wind was blowing. For those who spent the day indoors, there were white caps on Red Mill Pond for crying out loud! It looks like Tuesday before the…

User 284190339 · 04 – 13 – 24 Fishing Report It has been either gale or small craft warnings since Thursday and there won’t be any change until early next week. The good news is the water temperature in the bay and ocean has touched 50 degrees and unless these stinking winds knock it back…

User 284190339 · 04 – 12 – 24 Fishing Report Thursday saw gale warnings on the open water so it was not a good day for fishing out there. Patty at Captain Bones had a couple more trout citations to share. Cole Flanagan, 11 years-old, caught a 3.02-pound rainbow trout from Rittenhouse Park on a…
