Fran Kosinski with a 19 inch 3.5 pound blue caught off the surf this eveing. He also had 2 snappers and lost a lot of bait tonight. The bigger blue was caught on a mullet rig with fresh mullet. We have just expanded our mullet rigs we have 6 different mullet rigs and plenty of fresh mullet too… Side note: Mullet rigs are not for catching mullet, they do well with bluefish and sharks!

The Pequod ventured out to the wrecks on Wednesday and came back with a PILE of fish Sea bass ,porgy,triggers,Sheepshead and small blues and spade fish Drew Cooper and Cap't Joe Huffman of Fish And Fun Charters took Mike Shifflett out to be shown how it's done. Good Day

It's been weeks since our last keeper flounder but finally we broke the dry spell. Ray and Stephanie Stull from Rockville, MD with a 24-1/2", 6-1/4 lb'er we caught today. Also had some smaller flounder and croaker. So wet those lines, there's still some left out there.

Here is a forward from Papa Louie thought everyone would get a kick out of it. He said it is smile from god.

Matt Mulhern with a 22.75 inch flounder he caught off of Inlet View. He also let go a 19 inch flounder, thinking the limit was 19.5 and had 6 others that were smaller than that. Be patient and you too can still catch flounder this time of year…
WE HAVE FRESH MULLET AND BIG MINNOWS or KILLIES FOR OUR NORTHERN FISHERMEN
