WGMD Fishing Report 10-28-22

bill-o

Small craft advisories were up on Friday for the Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay and forecasted to be up again on Saturday.

I did get one report from Indian River Inlet. Tony Walls caught an 18-inch tog on a sand flea while fishing from the north side.

Fortunately, freshwater fishermen can still fish during hard blows. Roy Miller didn’t even have to leave home to catch a personal best 25-inch channel catfish from his dock on Red Mill Pond. Roy’s wife Diane assisted with the net. He used his 4-weight fly rod and also caught two bluegills, two yellow perch, one crappie and a largemouth bass.

Up in New Castle County, Ed O’Donnell tried to fish the Fly-Fishing Only section of White Clay Creek. He found the water almost completely covered with leaves making it almost impossible to have a decent drift. He did hook two rainbow trout and landed one. Flies used included the green weenie, mini wooley bugger and pink egg pattern.
