Surf Fishing News

There is a lot of misinformation in the fishing community about the shellfish aquaculture program to introduce oyster "farming" in our bays.  I have been contacted by people on different sides of the fence ... if you will.  I asked Captain Bill Baker, whom is a member of many of the committees concerned with our fisheries for some factual…

Well that was a wash today, literally, with sand!  This morning the winds were twenty plus sustained with gusts that had to be close to 35 on the beach.  Iwent to Beach Plum Island for a little clean up, and when I walked out on the beach ... not a good day to be in the sand.  It was crazy in the bay, and I was pelted with anything…

So, how many of you got stuck on Beach Plum Island?  That is a bay beach, and they are harder to drive on.  The beach there has always been difficult to drive.  The storms, winds, and high tides have made the sand very mushy like sugar, would be a good description.  We have been going out there for the past four weeks and the sand has been…

Yesterday morning I was setting up to help a buddy of mine install replacement windows.  Then the phone stats blowing up.  I was sent a picture of Ray Hibbbs holding the 41 inch striped bass he caught in the surf at Beach Plum Island.  The next series of pictures and texts were driving me nuts.  DSF in the surf ... "More fish, and do we post…

Well we had an awesome weekend in Delaware fishing.  The blue crabs have started moving around, showing up in crab pots, and clamming is still excellent.  The striped bass are starting to move around and show up in the surf.  These are our resident bass that are schooling, and getting ready to head up north as migratory striped bass.  Not all…

The other day I met a part time Game warden at Massey's Landing.  He was telling some folks new to the area about fishing and our waters.  After they left,  we spoke for a while about the problems of poaching and the sources.  Most of the time poaching is done locally.  People from out of town that get caught with undersized fish, mostly are not…

It has been an eventful few days.  I met CJ of Striper King Gear on Beach Plum Island the other night for some surf fishing and chillaxing in the sand.  He was grilling chicken and taters and they were excellent.  I was torturing everyone on the DSF Facebook page with food and grill pictures.  The weather was gorgeous for a few days, and felt…

Yesterday Brian Dunkelberger was fishing up north below the C&D canal with friends, and they hit 2 keeper striped bass on bunker chunks.  Some of the boys up north saw a few weighed in at Port Penn as well.  Brian and crew lost a third fish, but are very happy they managed some nice dinner for the table.  Jeff Sands and his crew…

Today I wandered around the bays and checked out the beaches and inlets.  There are fish here of all species it would seem, and some may be a tad early.  The netters according to Rick's Bait & Tackle have been catching weakfish and striped bass, as by catch.   Large fish in keeper sizes, and in decent numbers.  The striped bass…

Not much going on in our tidal waters in Sussex county.  Hunter Lied (I kid you not, the best name for an angler) was at Broadkill beach yesterday hitting skates.   He had a good time getting a tug on the line, and chillin on the beach.  Instead of surfing a couch, and playing video games.  Most kids these days are not into fishing and the…

There are fish up north and it is too cold in the south?  Funny as that may sound it is true, the northern waters of the Delaware River are starting to see more action.  Down here in the south or Lower Slower, we are seeing fewer fish (mostly perch and skates) and still averaging 44 degrees for water temperatures.  The other Day Jeff Sands,…

We apologize for being offline for 2 days, the servers crashed when an enormous amount of you folks hit the site all at one time.  We have it all worked out now, and hope it does not happen again.  Honestly, I love it when the servers crash from too much traffic.  It drives Chris Walker (admin 1) crazy insane.  We tried to anticipate the traffic…

Mikey Williamson and Conner fished yesterday (Saturday).  "Nothing new up here this weekend.  With a pack of blood worms we tried out augustine.  Caught the high tide into the outgoing.  Couple people on the beach as we were leaving said they had a few cat fish. We didn't get anything but a bump here and there.  I actually think we were feeding…

This report is dedicated to the men and women of our armed forces.  Thank you all for what you do, and the sacrifices you make. Monday CJ Jarrell of Striper King Gear also DSF Pro Staff, Kristen Kemper our Chica In the Surf also DSF Pro Staff, Ashley LeCates, Dave LeCates, Bill Miller, and myself  headed north to Augustine Beach.  Several…

It has been a great weekend.  I spent most of the day Saturday working on license plate orders.  There were people all over the place, beach combing was very successful for many people.  Suzanne Martin ... " Some glass, shells, needle nose pliers, and a piece of pottery...."   Few other folks reported the sea glass finds were great on all of…

Well it has been an interesting few days to say the least. Monday we had EJ Chalabala,  from the Delaware Center for the Inland bays give a presentation on Shellfish Aquaculture to our fishing group at Old Bay Steakhouse.  Every Monday DSF has a gathering at Old Bay Steakhouse for anglers to meet, hang out, and talk fishing.  We learned a great…

The last few days have been freakishly warm out, and the beach was beautiful, it even smelled like summer.  Kristen Kemper was on 3R's and Fenwick Island beaches.  She found more cool driftwood than she caught fish.  She did find an interesting piece of wood that was part of an old ship.  It has little historical value, according to the folks…

Tomorrow night at Old Bay Steakhouse 5:30 p.m. is our Monday meeting for the DSF Fishing club ... tomorrow night's subject will be ... What to call this besides a club. Possibly a "fishing Forum" or "Cafe", Club always comes with a set "tone" ... As you know DSF is very innovative, so we are looking for something to set our own "tone" ... I…

Sorry we have been kind of quiet, I have been dealing with broken vehicles, sick as a dog, and going through videos and pictures of last year.  Wow, did I take a lot of pictures, and I have yet to look on the external drives.  I took 2 days just to go through 5 months worth.  Not much has been happening fishing, and I missed going to…

The weather warmed up over the weekend, not like it was predicted in some cases, but it was still decent.  There were a lot of folks coming this way to go for the striped bass that have been showing.  Keepers were pulled from the rail, rock piles, the bays, and out front on the troll.  There are shorties everywhere.  It was very foggy every…

This is dedicated to my Uncle, Jim Davies, whom passed suddenly this morning.  I am going to miss him, and wish I had more time to see him. It has been an eventful few days to say the least.  The fishing has picked back up thanks to temperatures increasing and baitfish availability, something that has also increased.  Every time I am at the…

ASMFC Initiates First Coastwide Stock Assessment of Black Drum Data Sought for Assessment Arlington, VA – The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission has begun work on the first coastwide stock assessment of black drum.

Striped bass are always around, we have resident bass that live in the bays.  Our buddy Dave caught a 28 inch summer flounder on a fly the other day.  He was shocked to catch one that large, this late, and on a fly.  He was getting some striped bass fishing in during vacation.  Drop shot on a 3 way swivel with a fly on a 3 foot leader, what …

I meant to post this last week, sorry gang, it is not the end of the world.  I honestly thought we posted the results of Bill's Sport Shop's Striper Tournament.  After several weeks of constant fishing, and meeting at Irish Eyes for dinner on Friday nights.  The eager winners were announced, and awarded their prizes.  I was taking pictures, and…

This report is dedicated to the memory of Rich Magee, he will be sorely missed by many of us in the surf.  We are still in shock over his passing.  He was an incredibly nice person, and very non-pretentious   I will miss seeing him on the beach and around "campus".  Our condolences go out to his family and friends.... The other day I dropped…

The surf was beautiful today, according to everyone I didn't get to meet out there.  I missed hanging OTW Sand Sticks, and You Snead This Gear in the surf.  Chris Barton caught a bunch of skates, and Jason Snead found a shark tooth. He posted the picture, and everyone decided it was a sand shark.  Chris Fortner said "Looks like a sand shark…

The Amendment establishes a 170,800 MT total allowable catch (TAC) beginning in 2013 and continuing until completion of, and Board action on, the next…

I have been trying to find the time all season to catch up with Captain Chuck Cook owner of First Light Charters, when he has time to do a little fishing.  Like my new job, his job charter fishing, doesn't allow for any "personal" time when one fishes.  Unless of course you both get in a boat, ignore the phones, and go for the morning.  I met…

This was sent to us today by Tess Belcher of DNREC and, she asked if DSF would get the word out to you ... "Hi Rich - I know your followers like surf-fishing more than freshwater, but if you know of anyone who might be interested, can you pass this along?  Thanks! " Happy Holidays!!   ... from the Aquatic Resource Education Center (AREC) Our…

red hake ... caught in Cape Henlopen State Park by Nick Kiessling Well it has been a slow week.  Not much to report, but the same thing.  Stripers, some blues, spotted hake, and even redfish still in the surf.  Otherwise it has been dogfish, skates, or donuts.  Bunker has been the bait of choice for the most part. People have been drifting…

Saturday I met Andres, Sherry, Mark, and Chris on 3R's beach in Delaware Seashore State Park.  It was a gorgeous day in the surf, beautiful water, and incredibly warm temperatures.  December 1st  was 60 degrees, a light wind, and we had Christmas music!  We surf fished the outgoing tide with at least 12 rods, loaded with bunker, mullet, and…

There have been keeper striped bass in the surf, inlets, piers, rocks, rails, and inland bays.  I know boys that are already hitting them down south as far as the Chesapeake and Bay Bridge Tunnel.  They are getting hit on the troll near Bethany Beach.  Tyler Bankowski has been hammering them in the Indian River Inlet on live spot.  Live eels…

Attention Delaware Anglers ..... We have been asked to do this before, and we decided we would. We are going to do a consumer reports style section or articles ... called "Rate Your Baitshop". A weekly write up will be done on these issues. You will be able to send us your experiences with ANY store in Delaware, and help fellow DSF readers. Tell…

Last week an Atlantic Sturgeon washed up on shore in Cape Henlopen State park.  We sent the picture to Associate Professor Dewayne Fox of Delaware State University, and asked him what he knew, coincidentally he was at a seminar about Sturgeon. "The sturgeon that washed up was an immature female that had her head crushed in by a boat.  My…

Last night I attended the Citizens Advisory Committee for the Delaware Center for the Inland Bays.  It was very interesting, and many subjects were discussed.  Chris Bason the Director for the Delaware Center for the Inland Bays started off with a update on the program for Aquaculture Restoration of Oysters, they are working on for our bays.  …

Big stripers are showing up in the surf, rails, rocks, piers, and the back bays.  They are not in blitz numbers, and it takes some work to get them, but they are here.  People are using live spot, chunking fresh bunker (when they can be found), mullet chunks, flies long lining, and even poppers, or plugs.  I have managed a few shorties in the…

We have seen plenty of shorties and a few keepers the last few weeks, but in the past few days, more and more keepers are being caught.  The Delaware Bay has been heating up for keeper stripers.  Friends out today saw Gannets on the water, but they were not feeding, yet.  More were spotted near Fenwick Island yesterday, "raining" on fishy…

DSF would like to thank all of our veterans past and present, as well as those still serving.  I have a lot of friends in the military and children of friends as well.  THANK YOU! I walked Broadkill beach after breakfast today, there is a lot of natural debris on the beach.  Which is normal after a storm, there is also some trash on the…

I met the park's volunteers today at Holt's Landing, and helped clean the park.  A group of students helped today, they were very nice and energetic, their efforts are very appreciated by DSF.  We cleaned the park up quickly, then they headed to the south side of the Indian River Inlet camp ground to get a few things left over from yesterday's…

We had a nor'easter come in right after hurricane Sandy, there has been minimal flooding.  All areas that normally experience tidal flooding are, and will flood.  The bays are full of water, and were still draining from Hurricane Sandy.  Prime Hook road is closed, you can access as a resident only through Broadkill Beach.  Route 1 was covered…

There is a storm system headed our way, following nearly the same path as hurricane Sandy.  Steady high winds, and unusual high tides will be the concern with this storm.  With the tide higher than average, the bays still holding water, we are in for some coastal flooding.  Hopefully no worse than the usual low spots.  Area fields, and drainage…

Delaware Seashore State Park opened up today, as did the Indian River Inlet, and the Charles W. Cullen bridge was opened last evening.  I headed down this morning arrived about 8:30 a.m. and checked the area.  The Inlet survived fine, there are erosion gullies along the jetty cap.  The chain link fences caught, and held a lot of debris.  The…

The beaches have survived, and are producing fish.  Yesterday Alex Stevens text me ... "there is no one on the beach."  I responded ... "cool" ... The next text was a picture of a flat tire in the sand.  Turns out they got sand in the stem, and the tire slow drained while they were fishing.  I told him I will be there in an hour just…

Route 1 progress is going good . Charles W Cullen Bridge will open on the morning of Nov. 4 ... DelDOT Secretary Shailen Bhatt has projected the Indian River Inlet Bridge will be fully reopened to traffic on Sunday, Nov. 4.  Keep in mind they have a lot to still clean up... and ... Driving 60 mph on a sandy road is a very bad idea. They have to…

Fishing is still good out there.  We have hit dogfish, redfish, and puppy drum in the surf on cut mullet and fishbites.  Sandfleas are back in our sponsors shop, also green crabs.  You will probably have a hard time getting green crabs the rest of the year.  They are a by-catch from trawlers up north.  I saw a picture of a beautiful speckled…

By now you have heard there is a huge storm headed our way.  If you haven't heard, then now you know, and if you have a boat in our waters get it out ASAP.  Some folks have said in a back cove it will be fine, that is not the case.  Dan Satterfield put up a prediction that the waves could possibly surge over 3 feet above the mean high tide line…

This past weekend was a great time, I saw a lot of folks I haven't seen in a while.  Hung out at Bill's Striper Tournament dinner Friday night, that was fun, and saw the Reel Friends surf fishing club.  I fished with Admin 1 on Saturday, and spent Sunday surf fishing for most of the day.  Chris and Teresa, sponsored by DSF, surf fished the…

Everyone who has hit the surf in the past few days has been either straight hammering bluefish, or just catching a few.  Jerry Hirst and crew were catching blues all day long on Tuesday.  Karen said they hit over  50 fish and decided they were too tired to continue, took home the keepers, and smoked them for dinner.  I am looking forward to…

It is cold and windy, Brrrrrrrrr!! Yesterday Jason Duncan  and crew killed the redfish (red drum) in the surf on mullet chunks, as well as flounder and bluefish.  They were pulling in keeper redfish 2 at a time, and said despite the wind, the fishing once again was excellent.  "Another ridiculous day surf fishing .... This time the 4 of us took…

Well, everyone else was fishing the Indian River Inlet yesterday, I had to drop by the Center for the Inland Bays.  We are now working with them to help promote their efforts and organization.  Yes, that means they are a new DSF sponsor, and I will tell you all about that soon.  Of course when I go anywhere near the inlet, like a magnet she…

We have changed the border of the website to pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness.  Last Week my family lost Aunt Cathy to pancreatic cancer.  I have not had the chance to see her in a few years, but I remember all the good times had in Connecticut at the lake.  She will be sorely missed, and left us well before her time.  I know many…

Every morning I get up and wander out to the beach, rail, rocks, pier, canal, or drift a bay, and catch a fish.  Spot, croaker, trout, blue, shorty striped bass, redfish, pompano, king fish, flounder, blue runners, black sea bass, puppy drum, sheapshead, spotted hake (ling), there are so many to choose from.  This will not last long, but is fun…

Many people came down here for a beautiful weekend.  It was a tad chilly in the mornings with a light breeze, but that didn't stop anyone from surf fishing, or hitting the piers, rocks, rails, and bays.  I have been fishing Broadkill and Beach Plum Island, doing well on small trout, spot, blues, and croakers all on fishbites.  I meant to chunk…

The fishing has been excellent the last few days.  Yesterday on the incoming tide the Indian River Inlet heated up for bluefish, and shorty striped bass.  They were hitting flies, and bucktails with white or yellow plastics.  The shorties are getting larger, and increasing in numbers.  We all know what that means, the fish will be running soon.…

It is 50 degrees this morning, fall is definitely here to stay.  We fished a little this weekend, and ran around a lot, seeing people.  Pompano and reds are still in the surf, as well as ling or spotted hake are showing up at the point in Cape Henlopen State park, so go figure on the 71 degree water temps.  The Baldwins were there this weekend,…

The last few nights the bluefish have been lighting up the Indian River Inlet on the outgoing tide.  It has been surreal to experience according to many that have seen this for the first time.  Mike and Gary Basehore had the best weekend fishing ever.  They were just bubbling with excitement when they told me about the blitz.  I am glad they…

Saturday I participated in the coastal clean up at Broadkill and Beach Plum Island.  I met a lot of very nice people that live here.  Some folks came to just help from very far away, since this is their favorite place to visit.  Rich Snyder was very pleased he had such a huge turnout for Beach Plum Island.  I was also, that many came out to…

I wrote and posted this on our Facebook page this morning with this picture I found online.  I didn't post it correctly, and everyone has been sharing it for what I wrote about 9/11, Jeff sorry if your page is going crazy, my bad. .... Never forget that day. I know I never will. In all the bickering online over politics this year…

I have been running back and forth between Long Neck and Broadkill Beach.  There is a beach cleanup at Broadkill Beach on Saturday the 15th of September, I will be there to help since, we fish that area, and coincidentally, it is my new backyard for a month.  I am going to spend some time off the beaten track, and check some places out I…

Yesterday Alan and Cindy's crew were fishing 3r's and hit a few redfish.  Top and bottom rig with green/yellow and orange/yellow floats with blood worms, fishing for spot.  There are decent sized redfish all over the place, and they are getting bigger.  Captain Savidge text earlier that redfish are at Cape henlopen for the past 2 days.  So far the…

The past week the flounder have slowed down, until yesterday when they turned back on heavy.  I am at Rick's Bait & tackle today selling raffle tickets, and I have seen many a flounder weighed.  The other day Randy Piascinski "the duke of fluke" caught a 6.2 pound doormat on live mullet.  Yes, that is his nickname, he calls himself, you can…

I met Kristen on 3R's today to actually do a little surf fishing.  She was set up, the tide was almost to the bottom of the low.  The wind was right over the dunes, and the flies were horrible.  So we stood knee deep in the wash and fished.  The ocean was calm today, and the tide was lower than normal.  We bailed after the flies really turned on,…

There are bluefish in the Indian River Inlet running the tides.  Hitting spoons and bucktails.  Rigging up 2 bucktails like a speck rig has done well also.  I was using a silver spoon, and had several hits, but didn't hook up.  The condition of my spoons hooks aren't exactly up to par ... I have been busy.  I fished for all of 20 minutes.  The…

Last night we were rocked by storms, Sussex county is now waterfront property.  Everything is flooded, low spots are holding large amounts of water.  The exercise area in Pot Nets Bayside is completely full of water.  Pontoon boats were ripped from their decks last night, something no one here has ever seen before.  The pontoon boat…

Yes, you read that correctly, Monday night a hammerhead was caught in the Indian River Bay.  I know exactly where, not going to burn that spot.  No we do not have a picture, these boys do not fish with cameras, ever.  They have a angling problem that can only be cured by more fishing.  If he said he caught a 50 pound loch ness monster, I would…

Mike Givens of the band Monkee Paw was surf fishing this morning, and came up with croaker after croaker, on green fish bites.  He was surf fishing somewhere in Delaware Seashore State park.  Friends at 3r's drive on access this morning, produced croakers and bluefish on mullet rigs.  While I was there at the top of the incoming tide…

I dropped by the Cape Henlopen fishing pier today.  Which has been producing all kinds of fish lately.  I heard one young man complaining all of the flounder they caught were undersized.  He did hit a large bluefish, but was more concerned with the small flounder.  I was happy they were catching fish.  There is always a very diverse crowd at…

Yesterday Mike Parker of Outdoors Delmarva was filming for the September 1st episode.  He went fishing out of Lewes, DE and got into some huge tilefish ... "We caught 16 Golden Tilefish aboard the Quintessa, out of Lewes, Delaware. We were deep-dropping in anywhere from 500 to 1500 feet of water in Wilmington Canyon between 70 and 80 miles off.…

Well it has been an interesting few days, I met a lot of cool people, and made some new friends.  First off, I want to congratulate Kristen Kemper, Jennifer Garmer, Patty Link, and Sabrina Shannnon for winning the Mahi Division in the Poor Girls Open.  They fished with Captain Scooby "Kevin", mates Travis and Jimmy Hall on the boat REEL DESIRE.…

I met Teresa at Herring Point beach Wednesday afternoon, we arrived early for shark fishing. 5 more to go, and we are done ... nothing like a personal shark week ... upclose and personal that is.   I was anticipating catching some red drum, weakies, and/or pompano.  I haven't actually surf fished in weeks it has been all sharks.  I really…
