Fishing Report

Looks like sand eel time may be starting early this season. We are getting some reports of sand eels in the wash along our beaches. This could be the reason the fluke have moved in close to the beach. Small bass have also been in this mix. It just may be thin metal/teaser time, it’s definitely worth…

More of the same was going on out there yesterday. Good surf conditions today. The light N.E. wind forecasted for today will give you a little white water to work with. Most of all, there should be no flies with the N.E. winds, that’s always a good thing when spending time on the beach during the summer months. Crabbing by boat…

Fluke along our beaches out front is the main target of daytime surf anglers. Sharks on the night tides seems to be on the rise. Along with all the crabbing going on out back, the dock is always good for a head turner every now and then. Around 7PM last night a grandfather fishing with his…

Not so bad for July in the surf. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not on fire by any means, but it’s far from dead. Small bass and small blues are here and there while fluke is the main species being targeted. Shark fishing at night remains good. The west side of the bay is still hot producing nice…

Fluke or crabs, your choice! Great weather with two of the favorite summertime table fares available now for the taking. IBSP is the most popular spot for fluke fishing due to its many un-guarded fishing areas available. Crabbing is a matter of getting yourself to the west side of the bay by boat or land, boat being your…

Fluke out front in the surf on bucktail gulp combos. Nice keeper crabs being taken on the west side of the bay. A decent catch of keeper cabs can be had by those willing to put in some time crabbing from our dock out back. A little early for snapper blues and blowfish for the kids but…

HAPPY INDEPENDANCE DAY EVE!! It’s been crazy around the shop since the crabs have been on the attack. Finding time to write a brief report is becoming next to impossible, so let me bring you up to date while I can. The surf fishing in IBSP has been good with fluke in the 18″ to…

Some small blues, small bass, mixed sizes of fluke and even some black fish can be taken in IBSP around the north jetty area. The surf has been producing some nice fluke to those targeting them. Fluke fishing is not a lazy man’s game, your presentations must be in constant motion and mobility is the…

It seems the only thing biting in the surf right now are fluke. These great tasting flatties are falling to bucktail gulp combos fished with a teaser above. This method is by no means the only way to score on these fluke. Live killies fished with squid strips or killies fished alone are also good…

All quiet on the surf front yesterday! It’s partly due to lack of interest caused by the lower numbers of catchable game fish for this time of year. Our dock out back was loaded with wood bee crabbers picking away at some nice keeper crabs, not a ton by any means, but crabs for the table never the less. “LIVE…
