Saturday saw small craft advisories up, but a few boats did test the ocean for flounder and sea bass.  Sunday will see seas to seven feet on the ocean so I hope no one ventures out. The big money winners at the Mid-Atlantic Tournament were: Heaviest White Marlin at 82 pounds caught on the Sea…

On Saturday Robert Wilson caught an 8.66-pound flounder while fishing on the Katydid.  Antonio Neal had…

Saturday was the last of the really hot and humid days for a while.   Sunday will see the wind shift from southwest to northeast at 10 to 15 knots with gusts to 20 and the folks at NOAA are still calling for seas on the ocean to be three feet.  Don’t you believe them!  Indian…

As we reported yesterday, Saturday the seas were very productive in the morning and waned as the afternoon rains blanketed the coast.
