Thursday was just a bad day to even think about fishing.  Wind gusts topped 37 knots and we had copious amounts of rain.  I didn’t even call any of my contacts because if anyone went fishing, I don’t want to know their names.  Friday will once again see small craft advisories up for north winds…

Tuesday was an absolutely delightful day to be on the water. Hardly a breath of air and a slick calm sea. There was a haze that cut visibility, but it burned off by late morning. My friend Doug Elliott and I left Lewes Boat Ramp in my 16-foot tin boat around 7:30 AM and ran…

Monday was another rough day on the ocean, but it looks like we will get some relief come Tuesday. Right now, NOAA weather calls for south winds of five to ten knots with seas of two feet or less on the ocean. Delaware Bay will see southeast winds of five to ten knots with seas…

Saturday September 11, 2021 saw pretty much the same fishing as we have had for a while.   Flounder and sea bass in the ocean and not much from the surf or inlet. I can’t let the 20th anniversary of the horrendous attacks on America that occurred 20 years ago pass without comment.  I was fishing…

Thursday saw small craft advisories up and they will be up through Saturday morning.  We had ¾-inch of rain at my house on Thursday so if anyone went fishing, they love it a lot more than I do.  I do have a few reports left over from earlier in the week.  Robbie from Lewes Harbour…

As nice as it was on Tuesday is just how bad it was on Wednesday.  Small craft advisories were up for Wednesday and they will be up again for Thursday as winds are predicted to go west at five to ten knots and seas build to five feet.  Friday the wind will go northwest at…

Tuesday saw perfect fishing weather with a calm wind and slick seas on Delaware Bay. The ocean was equally calm, but that will be the last day this week for good weather. Small craft advisories are up for Wednesday with winds of 10 to 15 knots out of the south in the morning going to…

Monday, we had a bit more wind and rain on the ocean than the forecast called for.  The Morning Star out of Ocean City, Maryland said things didn’t settle down until well after lunch, but he was still able to find some nice dolphin and lots of bailers for his customers.  Tuesday looks good with…
