Still plan to be in Virginia Beach on Friday and looking for continued good weather. The flounder fishing this summer has been very good for those who work at catching these fish. While it is possible to go out, bait up, put you rod in a holder and drag the rig in front of a…

I certainly hope the weather is good on Thursday because I plan to be fishing in Virginia Beach with my son Ric.  We try to get together at least once a year, usually before he has to begin teaching his High School English class. The fishing pier at Cape Henlopen State Park has provided steady…

With two tropical storms dancing around in the ocean off our coast, you can expect small craft warnings up for Saturday, Sunday and Monday.  To the best of my knowledge, no boats ventured out on Saturday and I doubt any will sally forth on Sunday on Monday.  Monday is the first day of the Mid-Atlantic…

Friday saw the wind go northeast and that’s where it will stay through Sunday.  There are small craft advisories up for Saturday and I suspect we will see them remain through Sunday.  Good couple of days to get those honey-dos done around the house. I had a suspicion that things were rough in the ocean…

Thursday saw a good deal of rain and fog, but boats fished the ocean and bay.  The easterly wind kept temperatures cool and it looks like more of the same for Friday. Tommy at Lewes Harbour Marina said the Katydid had a boat limit of sea bass from ocean structure on Thursday along with a…

Wednesday saw nice weather, but the inshore waters were still a bit roiled and very few boats ran to the bay or ocean.  The surf and the inlet were also pretty dirty so not much was taken from those areas either. Tommy at Lewes Harbour Marina did tell us the Pirate King found some kingfish…

The tropical storm passed by rather quickly and the rest of the week looks pretty good.  It will take a tide or two for the nearshore waters to settle down, but the offshore areas will be up and running by Wednesday. As of Monday, in the White Marlin Open, the Restless Lady out of Ocean…

Monday saw a few boats running in the ocean and bay, but no one will be running on Tuesday.  It looks like the tropical storm whose name I can’t pronounce will go by pretty fast and that is good news.  Fishing should return to normal by Thursday and the weekend looks great. The beaches have…

Wednesday was a carbon copy of Tuesday.  Fishing in the ocean remained good with flounder leading the parade. Dan’s Tackle reported that Matt Andrews caught a 2.25-pound flounder in the ocean surf on mullet.  A keeper flounder from the beach in the middle of summer is somewhat unusual. The Savannah Lynn had a combination shark/flounder…

Tuesday was another hot one, but the breeze made it bearable on the water. When I was at Lewes Harbour Marina on Monday, I noticed the Strike Zone was flying three tuna, one white marlin release and a dolphin flag.  It seems Captain Chris Keller participated in the Hux Big Fish Tournament and that was…

Monday was a perfect day to go flounder fishing on the Katydid and I did. We left the dock at 0600 and had lines in the water by 0715.  Captain Brent had us fishing directly off of Indian River Inlet inside B Buoy.  He has a bunch of hard structure on his GPS and that’s…
