WGMD Fishing Report 8-16-21
Monday was partly cloudy and cool at the beach with southeast winds and decent fishing for those who went. The rest of the week will see the wind swing all around the compass beginning in the southeast on Tuesday then go south on Wednesday and Thursday before going northwest on Friday. Seas through the week are supposed to run two to three feet on the ocean.
