Fishing Report - Delaware Bay / Atlantic Ocean

November 5, 2010 - Big Bass
Some impressive stripers have been checked in during recent days. On Wednesday, Cory Falgowski brought in the biggest bass so far, a 43.6 pounder that took a trolled plug. Cory's Dad Corky caught a 36.9 pound rockfish that same day. Jason Burris weighed in a 34.9 pound linesider that ate a live spot. Jeff Gardiner fooled a 39.6 pound rock with a diving plug. Ryan and Evan Falgowski had stripers of 29.9 and 28.6 pounds. Trolling Overfalls Shoal with Stretch 12, 18 and 25 plugs along with diving models from Bomber, Storm and Rapala has been productive. Trolling plugs and drifting live spot at Prissy Wicks Shoal yielded bass too. Stripers were also reported in the rip outside the Outer Wall and at Brown Shoal by fishermen drifting spot and eels. Most structure that traditionally attracts striped bass should give up fish now that water temperatures have fallen into the 50's. Cory Falgowski currently leads the Lewes Harbour Striper Tournament with his 43.6 pounder. Jeff Gardiner is Second with that 39.6, and Corky Falgowski has Third Place with the 36.9 pound bass. The Tourney is on through November 23. Tautog action remains good. Captain Ted's guys on the Indian returned from a recent trip with 51 tog, including Mike Strain's 8.63 pounder. On Wednesday, the group aboard Katy Did limited out with 70 nice blackfish. Delaware Bay reefs 6 and 7 were popular among toggers, but sites 4,5 and 8 offered up tautog too. Tog came from the Inner and Outer Walls and Ice Breakers too. The Lewes Harbour Tog Tournament finished with Tom Emig taking the top prize for a 9.22 pounder. Herbie Shorthose had Second Place with an 8.94 pound tog. Scott Bucka stuck it out for Third with his 8.67 pounder.
