Friday saw nice fishing weather in the morning, but the wind did pick up in the afternoon. A small craft advisory is up for Saturday with southwest winds at 15 to 20 with gusts to 25 and seas on the ocean at three to four feet. We want to wish everyone fishing the DMS Surf…

The small craft advisories that were up on Thursday kept boats tied to the dock as Lewes Harbour Marina and Hook ‘em and Cook ‘em both reported no one out all day.  Right now, Friday and Saturday look good until the remnants of Delta arrive on Sunday. I do have a few reports left over…

Wednesday was another beautiful day unless you wanted to go out on open water where the southwest wind had small craft advisories up.  They will be up again on Thursday, but right now, Friday is looking good. At Lewes Harbour Marina, Ronnie said a private boat fished the Outer Wall and returned with six keeper…

Tuesday was just a beautiful day with bright sunshine and light winds.  Small craft advisories are up for Wednesday and Thursday isn’t looking much better. With such beautiful weather I had to go fishing so I traveled down to Indian River Inlet to catch the last of the incoming current.  When I arrived, there were…

Monday saw a decent day on the water for the few who went out. Tuesday also looks good, but the wind is going to pick up from the southwest on Wednesday. Amanda at Lewes Harbour Marina had lots to report. On Sunday Wendy Krieger had a citation-worthy 3.85-pound trout and a 20-inch flounder at B…

Sunday saw perfect fishing weather and those who went found good action from the beach, ocean and bay.  Right now, Monday and Tuesday are looking fine. At Lewes Harbour Marina, Amanda let us know that Paul Elwood caught a monster 12.69-pound summer flounder while fishing aboard the Katydid.  This is the largest flounder caught this…

It was a bit saucy on Saturday morning, but laid down for the rest of the day.  In fact, the day was just about perfect for a fall afternoon in Delaware.  Sunday is also looking good and the week ahead is not going to be too bad. At Lewes Harbour Marina, Tommy said the Katydid…

Thursday saw some rough weather in the morning, but it did lay out a bit by afternoon.  Not many boats sailed and those that did reported a mixed bag with sea bass, flounder and triggerfish.  Friday looks to be even rougher and we may not see to many fishermen on the water.  The weekend still…

Wednesday was windy and much cooler with small craft advisories up. This kept boats from leaving the dock at Lewes Harbour Martina and Indian River Marina. Thursday looks fair for the larger boats with seas at three to four feet and the weekend looks good. The National Marine Fisheries Service has closed the season on…

Tuesday saw small craft advisories up and they will be up again on Wednesday.  Add to that the heavy rain we are supposed to get on Tuesday night and it looks like at least Thursday and probably not until Friday before fishing becomes any good. Since the last set of disturbed weather, flounder fishing has…

Monday saw decent weather, but the rest of the week is not looking too good.  There is a change coming and we are going to see some rain and wind before things settle down. Clark Evans at Old Inlet Bait and Tackle sent me the results of the Delaware Fall Surf Fishing Classic.  They had…

Sunday was a bit overcast at the beach and a few places saw a little fog and drizzle.  Monday looks good, but we will have to keep a weather eye on the rest of the week. At Lewes Harbour Marina Amanda checked in two citation sheepshead.  Ray Nabb had a 10.48-pound monster caught at the…

Friday was another overcast and cool day at the beach.  The rest of the weekend may be a bit damp, but with light winds and calm seas fishing should be good. I stopped by Lewes Harbour Marina just as Chris Vann, mate on the Katydid, was unloading 20 flounder and too many black sea bass…

Thursday was overcast and cool, but the winds were light and the seas were down making for decent fishing conditions.  The weekend looks good if you can dodge a few rain drops. I drove down to Indian River Inlet around 2:30 PM to catch the top of the incoming current and worked the rips west…

Wednesday should be the last day of the current run of bad weather.  It looks like Thursday through Sunday we should have decent sea conditions.  Let’s hope the fish are still here and can find our baits and lures. Tommy at Lewes Harbour Marina said no one went out in the ocean or bay on…

Tuesday saw small craft advisories up and they will be up again on Wednesday.  Thursday will be the first day that boats can get out into the ocean, but a few may try the bay on Wednesday.  Surf fishing will be difficult at best until Friday, just in time for the Old Inlet Delaware Fall…

Monday brought no change in the weather with small craft advisories in the ocean and bay. It still looks like Thursday before this mess moves out and then it will take a while until the water clears in the surf and inlet and the bottom settles down in the ocean and bay. I did see…

Sunday was a repeat of Saturday and it looks like Monday and Tuesday will repeat Saturday and Sunday.  Checking the long-range forecast, it looks like Thursday before we see any break in this weather pattern and that’s only if no more storms form in the Atlantic. Lewes Harbour Marina said no one went out on…

Saturday was a lovely day on land and a real nightmare on the water.  Small craft advisories are up through Tuesday and if the forecast holds, it will be late next week before the seas settle down.  I’ve lost count on the number of storms floating around in the Atlantic plus the ones in the…
