Talk of Delmarva Fishing Report 04/16/25
User 284190339 · 04-16-25 Fishing Report Tuesday saw small craft advisories plus rain. Just another beautiful day in paradise. Old Inlet Bait and Tackle said anglers were huddled up under the Inlet Bridge where they caught 18 to 19-ich tog. I am sure they caught plenty of smaller tog and everything was on green crabs…

User 284190339 · 04-15-25 Fishing Report Once again on Monday, small craft advisories flew and boats once again remained at their slips and on their trailers.
