User 284190339 · 06 – 16 – 24 Fishing Report From what I heard from my reporters; Saturday was a tad rough on the ocean so I don’t have many reports from there. Lewes Harbour Marina said the only boat that left the dock on Saturday was the Angler. She fished bay structure and caught…

User 284190339 · 06 – 15 – 24 Fishing Report Friday was pleasant enough and fish were caught. Julie Stevenson and Mike Fisher went out to B Buoy on Wednesday and caught a limit of flounder to 22 inches. On Thursday, Julie’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Viscuglia, also went out to B Buoy and did…

User 284190339 · 06 – 13 – 24 Fishing Report Wednesday was a nice beach day. Lewes Harbour Marina reported that the Katydid had 10 flounder from ocean structure. A private boat also fished ocean structure and caught some flounder and a few keeper flounder were caught in the Lewes and Rehoboth canal. Baits varied…

User 284190339 · 06 – 10 – 24 Fishing Report Sunday, we had a hard northwest blow and, to the best of my knowledge, only one boat left the dock. Julie at Lewes Harbour Marina told me no boats sailed from Lewes on Sunday and no fish crossed their cleaning table. Breakwater Tackle at the…

User 284190339 · 06 – 09 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday saw some wind out of the southwest and some fair fishing. Hook ‘em and Cook ‘em reported that Paul Plummer and Eric Daughtry caught a 250.6-pound thresher shark on a mackerel bait at B Buoy on Saturday while fishing aboard the Salty Hooker. Burt…

User 284190339 · 06 – 07 – 24 Fishing Report As we mentioned on Wednesday, there was a small craft advisory up on Thursday so no boats sailed and the surf was a tad too rough for fishing. Old Inlet Bait and Tackle did record a few blues caught early in the morning at the…

User 284190339 · 06 – 06 – 24 Fishing Report Wednesday saw rain and a few thunderstorms and Thursday will have small craft advisories up so I don’t expect much fishing to take place. Julie at Lewes Harbour Marina said the Katydid brought in a boat limit of flounder from ocean structure. That is 32…

User 284190339 · 06 – 03 – 24 Fishing Report My son Ric, who lives in Virginia Beach, went out on his 20-foot Jones Brothers center console on Saturday and he encountered a school of giant bluefins close to the beach. He didn’t have tackle to match them, but he did hook four, the last…

User 284190339 · 06 – 02 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday was June 1st, the first day of the 17.5-inch minimum size limit for summer flounder in Delaware, Maryland and Virginia. Charter and head boats that had been catching limits of 16-inch flounder had a difficult time doing the same with the new 17.5-inch `minimum…

User 284190339 · 06 – 01 – 24 Fishing Report Friday the weather was good for fishing from the beach and the Inlet. Both Lewes Harbour Marina and Hook ‘em and Cook ‘em reported no boats ran to ocean structure. George Frigm reported catching two big blues, one weighing 8 pounds, 5 ounces and the…

User 284190339 · 05 – 31 – 24 Fishing Report We had a hard northwest wind on Thursday and that didn’t help the ocean fishing. Lewes Harbour Marina didn’t have any boats out during the day although the Katydid was out in Delaware Bay on a drum trip when I called. Hook ‘em and Cook…

User 284190339 · 05 – 30 – 24 Fishing Report For whatever reason fishing was slow pretty much everywhere on Wednesday. Those who put in the time and worked at fishing found some success. At Lewes Harbour Marina Julie told me the only boat that sailed was the Katydid and she only brought back 33…

User 284190339 · 05 – 28 – 24 Fishing Report Well, Mother Nature gave us two out of three days of the holiday weekend and saved her nasty weather for Monday when we should pause and reflect on the lives lost by our service men and women. Both Lewes Harbour Marina and Hook ‘em and…

User 284190339 · 05 – 27 – 24 Fishing Report Old Inlet Bait and Tackle said the crowds on the beaches were so thick that a fish would have a hard time threading its way through the lines. A few blues were caught on mullet rigs, but it was just too crowded. The boat traffic…

User 284190339 · 05 – 25 – 24 Fishing Report There were thunderstorms in the forecast for Friday so I cancelled my surf fishing plans and worked at home. Those of you who had all that good fishing on Friday owe me a debt of gratitude. Lewes Harbour Marina reported on Facebook the first Delaware…

User 284190339 · 05 – 24 – 24 Fishing Report While black sea bass season is open and there are lots of them on near-shore structure, the fact that those fish are under the 13-inch size limit has kept most boats looking for other targets. Lewes Harbour Marina reported the Katydid is fishing for black…

User 284190339 · 05 – 23 – 24 Fishing Report As good as surf fishing was on Tuesday, that’s how bad it was on Wednesday. The reason? That’s easy. I was on 3Rs Road. I picked up some mullet and a couple of mullet rigs at Old Inlet and drove up on 3Rs Road. I…

User 284190339 · 05 – 22 – 24 Fishing Report The weather improved dramatically on Tuesday and so did the fishing in the surf. Old Inlet Bait and Tackle said bluefish ruled the beach from Conquest Road to 3Rs Road with mullet the best bait. The store sold out of mullet and won’t have a…

User 284190339 · 05 – 21 – 24 Fishing Report I was supposed to fish on the Angler out of Ocean City on Monday. We left the dock right on time at 6:00 a.m. and after an hour or so of beating into a northeast wind driven sea the captain decided to call it a…

User 284190339 · 05 – 20 – 24 Fishing Report Sunday was very nice on land, but for some reason no boats from Lewes or from Indian River ventured to the sea bass grounds. Lewes Harbour Marina reported that the Katydid was up in Delaware Bay on a black drum trip and would not return…

User 284190339 · 05 – 19 – 24 Fishing Report Saturday was the first decent weather day we have seen in a long time and the boats were finally able to get to the black sea bass grounds. At Lewes Harbour Marina the Katydid, the Surface Tension and the Grizzly all ran to ocean structure…
