Chincoteague Island Fishing Report

Only in Chincoteague for trip not sure what else is around

Awesome time! If you want shark come a little earlier... Trout or other cold water fish come a little later.

We didn’t catch a ton of big fish, but we did catch plenty.

More recomend clamming it's a blast but the fishing is good as well. We just didnt get on to many but that's all good.

On top of sunscreen and a small cooler, bring a gym towel for your face and hands. If going clamming, extra socks and a pair of sandals for after.

Use a variety of bait; Book a charter boat to get the best experience (wider area= more chance of catching 'the big one'.

Be realistic and always prepared for weather, especially in afternoon.

Book the Shark trip with Tim Walch. Book the Clam/Crab/Fish trip with Tim Walch. Order the broiled Seafood Platter at The Village restaurant. Stay at Comfort Suites or The Marina Bay-Ascend Hotel. I stayed at both & both were exceptional. Steve's bait shop has everything you need if you want to shore fish while you are there.

Be patient... the fish are there! Bring binoculars to enjoy the abundant wildlife.

Small quiet town. Ask the locals where to eat! They won't steer you wrong!
