Fishing Report - Delaware Bay / Atlantic Ocean

October 21, 2010 - Reefs Coming Alive
Tautog action had been good on the rock breakwaters off Lewes, but Bay reef sites began producing good numbers of fish in recent days. Successful crews concentrated on sites 6 and 7 at Brown Shoal, however, tog were taken from site 5 in Broadkill Slough, and reef 8 the Star Site as well. Last Wednesday, the guys aboard Katy Did decked 45 blackfish. Bill Wiest wrestled in an 8.46 pound tog and an 11.41 pound sheepshead. Jamier Myers muscled a 12.5 pound sheepshead onto the Grizzly. On Thursday, Captains Dave Walker and Brent Wiest, along with Bill Wiest, Bruce Bennett and Lee Abel braved foul weather for their limit of 50 tautog. On Sunday, Toggers aboard Katy Did had a boat limit, including Chuck Stinemire's 7.25 pounder. Captain Ted on the Indian hosted Chuck Coverdale and friends for 26 nice keeper tog. Dave Walker and Brent Wiest anchored over a reef site Monday for their limit of 20 tog. Bob Fitzwater, Pete Antonelli, John Mancuso and Brandon Hamilton worked the Outer Wall for 30 blackfish on Monday. Captain Carey's Monday group on Grizzly put 60 blackfish in the box. Mike Newsham, David Schellenger and Scott Bucka toggled into reef rubble Tuesday to score 30 tog. Scott had one weighing 7.4 pounds. Doctor Mike Junck, Bob Witte and Ken Brittingham fished with Captain Pete on Top Fin for 26 tog on Wednesday. Mike Newsham, Geoff Klopp, Scott Bucka and Ricky Yakimowicz captured 40 quality tautog on Wednesday while working a Bay reef. Scott got an 8.67 pounder and Ricky reeled in a 9.25 pound tog. Jim Doyle landed an 8.45 pound blackfish Wednesday aboard Katy Did, which put him currently in Third Place of the Lewes Harbour Marina Tog Tournament. Scott Bucka's 8.67 pounder holds Second. An 8.94 pounder caught by Herbie Shorthose remains in the lead. The Tourney runs through October 31. Croakers are still in the Bay. Boaters had good catches of hardheads at reef site 6 using clams during the week. Stripers should show up soon, with the passage of this month's full moon. Tyler Smith reported some nice bass up the Bay for guys fishing with fresh bunker along the edge of Blake's Channel.
