Chris' Bait & Tackle 9/1/08

By Fishing Reports - September 1, 2008

FISHERMEN THIS WEEKEND DID GOOD ON FLOUNDER, LARGE FLOUNDER BEING CAUGHT FROM CHERRYSTONE REEF AREA DOWN TO THE BRIDGE TUNNEL. JIGGING AROUND PILINGS DURING SLACK TIDES HAS BEEN PRODUCING LARGER FISH.DID NOT HAVE A GOOD REPORT ON CROAKER THIS WEEKEND. MOST FISHERMAN STRUCK OUT THIS WEEKEND WITH ALL BUT A FEW CATCHING ENOUGH FOR A GOOD FISHFRY DINNER, WE BELIEVE THIS IS DUE TO THE HIGH EAST WINDS WE HAD ALL WEEK.

A FEW SPOT BEING CAUGHT, MOSTLY THE FISHERMAN OFF THE KIPTOPEKE AND CAPE CHARLES PIER. PLENTY OF SMALL BLUEFISH AROUND EACH PIER ALONG WITH PAN TROUT.

RED DRUM BEING REPORTED OFF NINE FOOT SHOAL AREA AND AROUND FISHERMAN'S ISLAND. THERE HAVE BEEN GOOD AMOUNTS OF PUPPY DRUM FOR THE SIGHT CASTERS BEHIND THE ISLANDS.

NO REPORTS OF COBIA OVER THE WEEKEND, PLENTY OF SHARKS AND RAYS THOUGH.
