Fresh Chincoteague Fishing Reports

Have alot of fun catching sharks and rays.

As we roll on into the summer season, we are pleased with the popularity and results on our new "Family Fun Fishing" trips. A shorter trip (3 hours) and lower price make this an ideal trip for youngsters and first timers looking to just catch fish and have fun. Sharks are on the increase and we try to keep a big line out for them when possible. If sharks are your goal our "Shark Hunters" is the trip for you. Although the calander is filling up for the summer season there are still plenty openings available. See you on the water, Aloha!

While the flounder still shows consistently good action, we did catch and release the first real shark in Chincoteague for the 2025 season this week. A heavy Hammerhead was brought boatside and released, with another lost during the fight. As temperatures continue to warm, the action will only improve. Despite being booked up for most of June, there is availability during the third week. Check our calander for last minute availabilities. We will continue to catch flounder and deliver fun fishing for younger anglers. See why we're the most experienced and highest rated "Affordable Family Fun Fishing" on Chincoteague. See you on the water, Aloha!

As the waters continue to warm and the weather stabilizes, big fish are moving from south to north creating multiple chances at the fish of a lifetime. Trophy striped bass and bull redfish cruise the surf and inlet areas, while larger flounder move into their summertime ambush spots. Beat the holiday rush by fishing this week. We have openings Monday and Tuesday and the fish are here. See you on the water, Aloha!

The flounder bite has been steady for weeks now, and the size is holding with plenty of 20 inch plus fish making it to the cutting board. Additionally, our newly added afternoon "Family Fun Fishing" 3 hour trips seem very popular as an affordable option for younger and more inexperienced anglers to do some catching. Whiting, spot and a few flounder keep the rods busy while we wait for the first sharks of the season to show. Expect as the water warms for the variety and quantity of fish to expand. We'll see you out there, Aloha!

The last 3 weeks of flounder on the coastal bays have produced many tasty fillets for anglers. The wind has been challenging. But anglers who brave it out have seen bent rods. The best fishing has been the outgoing tide. Water temps have been in the lower 60's. Favorite tackle has been our hand-tied double rig with a gold flash upper hook and either a white or pink skirts or plain lower hook tipped with silversides (our best choice), minnows,gulp the best bite has been either white or a new penny gulp shrimp. Don't be afraid to add a silverside to your gulp! Happy fishing..
