User 284190339 · 10 – 11 – 24 Fishing Report Thursday was another day with small craft advisories up on the ocean and once again no boats left Indian River Marina or Lewes Harbour Marina. I don’t know how the Army Corps of Engineers found out I was planning to meet a good friend and…

User 284190339 · 10 – 10 – 24 Fishing Report Wednesday was supposed to be nice. It wasn’t. The nasty weather just won’t leave us alone. I guess we shouldn’t complain considering what the folks in Florida and North Carolina are going through. Lewes Harbour Marina said the Katydid did go out, but it sounds…

User 284190339 · 10 – 07 – 24 Fishing Report Sunday was another good weather day and boats fished the bay as well as the ocean. At Lewes Harbour Marina we learned that the Katydid returned from ocean structure with flounder and the Amanda Lou fished the floating ocean structure for dolphin. The Outer Wall…

User 284190339 · 10 – 06 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday we caught a break in the weather and boats were able to fish the bay and ocean as far out as the canyons. Lewes Harbour Marina told us private boats fished the Delaware Bay and were able to catch sheepshead at the Outer Wall…

User 284190339 · 10 – 05 – 24 Fishing Report Friday was another day when no boats fished the ocean, or if they did, I didn’t hear about it. Lewes Harbour Marina said the only fish they heard of being caught were sheepshead and small tog taken by private boats that fished the Outer Wall…

User 284190339 · 10 – 04 – 24 Fishing Report Thursday saw another day of small craft and coastal flood advisories. The wind will lay out over the weekend, but seas will continue to run 4 to 5 feet. The Angler out of Lewes Harbour Marina was able to fish bay structure and bring back…

User 284190339 · 10 – 02 – 24 Fishing Report Tuesday was pretty much unfishable unless you could find sheltered water. Lewes Harbour Marina said no boats left their dock and no one answered the phone at Hook ‘em and Cook ‘em. Old Inlet Bait and Tackle said it was just a little windy, but…

User 284190339 · 09 – 30 – 24 Fishing Report Sunday saw the boats out of Lewes Harbour Marina choose not to go while those from Hook ‘em and Cook ‘em did, and they caught fish. The half-day boat Judy V had trout, croaker and a few sea bass. The all-day boat had sea bass.…

User 284190339 · 09 – 29 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday was the first day in two weeks that when I checked the marine forecast it did not have a big red banner declaring Small Craft Advisory. The seas are still running 3 to 4 feet, but the wind has dropped out to 5 to…

User 284190339 · 09 – 27 – 24 Fishing Report Thursday was another day of small craft advisories and apparently a couple of boats tried to fish the ocean, but ended up with mihi instead of marlin. I continue to snivel and whine about the weather while the Panhandle of Florida is expecting a Category…

User 284190339 · 09 – 26 – 24 Fishing Report Wednesday saw still another day of small craft advisories and another day of no boats on the ocean waters. The surf remains unfishable because 8 ounces will not hold bottom. Breakwater Tackle on the fishing pier at Cape Henlopen State Park told us spot and…

User 284190339 · 09 – 23 – 24 Fishing Report I believe Sunday was the 11th consecutive day of small craft advisories on the ocean. I have no ides if that is some sort of record, but I do know it is playing havoc with the fishing. Once again, no boats left Lewes Harbour Marina…

User 284190339 · 09 – 22 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday was another beautiful day on land, on the water, not so much. Small craft advisories were up again and once again they are posted right through Monday afternoon. I do not recall this many continuous days of hard northeast wind in the spring or…

User 284190339 · 09 – 20 – 24 Fishing Report Thursday the sun came out, but the wind continued to blow and the small craft advisory flags stood straight out. Hook ‘em and Cook ‘em reported that no boats left Indian River Marina. I called Lewes Harbour Marina twice and no one answered the phone.…

User 284190339 · 09 – 19 – 24 Fishing Report Wednesday, we added a little rain to the small craft advisories.

User 284190339 · 09 – 15 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday was rough in the ocean and that was just a preview of the week to come. Lewes Harbour Marina told us the Amanda Lou brought in 25 sea bass. The Surface Tension had six tog. Some private boats brought in sheepshead from the Outer…

User 284190339 · 09 – 14 – 24 Fishing Report Friday was another decent fishing day so I went fishing. Having heard about big blues at Indian River Inlet during incoming water I arrived there around 3:00 p.m. and left around 6:00 p.m. That’s the last two hours of the incoming and the first hour…

User 284190339 · 09 – 13 – 24 Fishing Report Correction: Lewes Harbour Marina reported the One More Time had a bluefin and a blackfin tuna. It was the Don’t Ask. Thursday was another nice day and more fish were caught. Frank Tucker and Wayne had the best catch fishing out of Indian River Inlet.…
