Cool Summer, Hot Sharkin'!

As the heat of summer bears on, the one fish we can count on is the croaker. For the next three weeks we are helping young anglers get a taste of competitive fishing with the "captain Steves Youth Croaker Tournament" this is a non-profit fish for fun open to all anglers under 16. Currently Chincoteague Bay Adventure anglers are in first and second place. Elsewhere, the redfish have slowed, waiting for trout to arrive, and flounder are still making it to the cutting board. See you out there, Aloha!

As we move into the dog days of summer, the flounder are staging a return to nearshore waters. Hopefully the moderate temperatures will continue and the bite will carry into August. Elsewhere, the panfish and shark bite continues at the inlet and nearshore ocean. Trout and puppy drum should begin to show in the next few weeks. July is fully booked but there are openings in August. See you on the water, Aloha!

The annual Captain Steve's Flounder Tournament is off to a fast start. Opening day we put one fish on the board. We continue to look for that exceptional doormat. The current leader at 5 1/2 pounds has set the bar high. Tournament runs through this Sunday, May 4th. If you'd like to get in on the fun and competition I do have a few slots open this week. Hope to see you out there, Aloha!
