Trip Summary

Balmy sundrenched fall mornings can only mean one thing- Poling the flats seeking redfish in the clear shallow waters between Assateague and Chincoteague. Large schools of mixed sized fish can present opportunities for multiple hookups, with long slug-it-out fights. A true opportunity to catch a trophy. Elsewhere about the islands, keeper sized flounder continue to bite, with seabass and porgies providing a fast bite on the bottom. Trout have started to move south and soon striped bass from up north will move in to replace them. We will continue to fish as far into the winter as weather permits, perhaps all the way through if the weather stays mild. Be sure to start booking those dates in April and May for spring flounder. See you on the water, Aloha!

The Croakers Are In and Life Is Good!
The Croakers Are In and Life Is Good!
July 13, 2025
As we enter the dog days of summer, the annual return of those lovable noisy croakers is in full swing. Catching, not fishing is the order of the day as the croakers come over the rail faster than we can take them off the hook. Some are of a very nice size, 10 or 11 inches. Great fun for youngsters who just want to catch, or seasoned fly guys looking to improve their strip strike. Flounder continue to bite, and the increased size limit makes those keepers that much heavier. Sharks are lurking about, and bite enthusiastically when they get a whiff of fish blood. We are awaiting the appearance of the fall rock stars, speckled trout and puppy drum. Any day now.... Try out the new "Family Fun Fishing" 3 hour afternoon trip. It has been very popular and a good way to get introduced to the fun of fishing. See you on the water, Aloha!
