User 284190339 · 11 – 04 – 24 Fishing Report Sunday was an interesting day. No boats left Anglers Dock and no one answered the phone at Old Inlet Bait and Tackle or Hook ‘em or Cook ‘em. Patty at Captain Bones in Odessa said white perch have been caught from the fishing pier at…

User 284190339 · 10 – 30 – 24 Fishing Report So, Tuesday was the day I have been waiting for since sometime last summer. I booked a deep-drop trip on the Angler out of Ocean City, Maryland and the closer we got to the date the better the weather looked. I was up at 1:00…

User 284190339 · 10 – 27 – 24 Fishing Report I wish I had better news about fishing on Saturday, but between the small craft advisory on the ocean and the unusually poor reports from Indian River Inlet, it seems staying home and watching collage football was the better choice. Of course, I happen to…

User 284190339 · 10 – 26 – 24 Fishing Report Friday, we had a pretty good heave on the ocean, but boats from Lewes decided to give it a try anyway. All but one returned to port. The Katydid managed to get in a half-day trip with a decent catch of sea bass. When I…
