Ocean City Maryland & Assateague Island - Delaware Beaches - Ocean n Bay Fishing Report
By Sue Foster, Oyster Bay Tackle Shop, Ocean City MD - Fenwick Island DE

Nov 7th, 2011

Fishing Report by Sue Foster

Lousy weather again this week and weekend! We had gale force winds on
Saturday and 10 to 13 foot seas! The first big striper was caught from the
Assateague surf on Sunday when the wind calmed down somewhat. Tautog were
biting good from the usual haunts in Ocean City most of the week and some of
the weekend. Party boats got into a good catch of sea bass on Friday before
the wind drove them home. Delaware Bay are seeing stripers in the 30-40
pound range.

(Please read the info about the new MD Saltwater License at the end of this
report. The state set up the tackle stores in Ocean City and anglers can buy
their MD licenses and boat license stickers at both our locations.) Please

Assateague surf was unfishable most of the week and weekend. When it was
fishable, sharks and the first stripers were the fare.

"CastNet" posted on Stripers Online on Friday. "After dark both smooth and
spiny dog's hit the surf in full force. Clam and bunker didn't stand a
chance between pickers and dogfish. Was even getting them on heads."

"66fisher" summed the weather conditions up this week and weekend: "Tried
fishing the surf in mid OC on Thursday. 10 ft swells and current moving hard
to the north. Could not hold bottom. Quit after an hour and headed to the
inlet to throw some lures, nothing happening. Went to check out A.I. and it
looked worse than OC. Gave up for the day. Went out to mid OC surf yesterday
morning, swell still fairly big managed to get 8's to hold. 1 spiny dog then
crabs were cleaning out bunker heads in about 5-10 minutes."

Sunday was a better day on Assateague, but sounded like everyone went home!
Nano posted: "AI was almost deserted today. Prime time for Fall season but
only a few fishermen. Beach was flattened by the storm all the way down.
Surf looks fishy with big swell but 6 oz can hold. No skate or doggie, only
stripers . One ocean runner at 36", another micro about 16-18", looks like
summer resident fish. Next few days should be good."

I had a couple anglers in on Sunday morning that said they caught two short
stripers from the Ocean City beach on Sunday morning on bunker. Well, that
was something anyway! Another angler said he picked up a "short striper" on
a lure on Thurday from the North Ocean City surf. Soon as the surf is
fishable, we should see more and more stripers. Blues? Not sure.... Time
will tell....


Many anglers ask about reading the beach when surf fishing. "Poppy" a very
good angler has posted another very good description with pictures on
Stripers Online. Check it out:
Reading the Beach He draws it out completely! If you're not catching
fish in the surf, you need to study this!

rigs? We have plenty in our shops or buy online! Shop Online

If you find it hard to hold bottom try using a "
sputnik sinker if you can't hold with a regular surf sinker. I always
carry a selection of sputnik sinkers in my tackle box.


Tautog fishing continues to be excellent in Ocean City. Anglers are catching
them from the Route 50 Bridge, Oceanic Pier, the bulkhead along 2nd through
4th Streets, from the end of 5th and 6th Streets, the Route 50 Bridge and
from the Inlet. Anglers are using either green crabs or sand fleas.

I fished three days on the Route 50 Bridge for tautog since I had some time
off and the weather conditions weren't fit for much else. The wind was from
the North and at my back on the outgoing tide, so fishing was fairly
comforable if you bundled up! I managed 6 nice keepers in 3 days from 15-18
inches which isn't bad for an amatuer. I saw some of the really good anglers
get their limits each day. I would have to say I learned a lot... The fish
were biting on the outgoing tide (1/2 way out till dead low) and the
beginning of the incoming, but I couldn't get a bite on the running incoming
to high tide. The water was extremely dirty on the incoming tide as the
rough seas offshore moved right into the bay with the incoming water. On
Friday, I watched as anglers threw white soft bodies on lead heads against
the tide as it went out. They threw as hard as they could against the wind,
and reeled in fast as the lures feel back with the tide. I watched as they
caught some nice blues and one big striper was hooked and lost as they went
for the net. Not bad considering the wind was blowing and the water was
dirty! I did see a short striper caught on a tog bait.

My pic of the tog is in our Photo Gallery under Ocean City
Bay and Inshore Photos.


Anglers in boats are catching tautog along the rocks just outside the
Commericial Harbor and in front of the rocks by the Homer Gudelsky Park.
Saturday was really ugly and not sure if anyone caught any tautog in all
that wind and dirty water. I saw anglers trying to fish the Inlet from the
shore on Saturday but it was just too windy. They gave it up pretty quick.

Flounder is still open in Ocean City though I didn't hear any reports. They
should still be here biting when the water cleans up a bit. Most people seem
to be targeting stripers or tautog.

Larry Jock of the Coastal
Fisherman let's us know that the stripers are on the move! On Tuesday he
posts: "OK... it's on! Stripers have moved south along the coast into our
area. Schools of stripers were seen by commercial fishermen 5 miles off,
straight out of the OC Inlet. Joe Morris at Lewes Harbour Marina sent me a
few pictures of BIG fish caught at Overfall Shoals at the mouth of the
Delaware Bay. These were ocean fish, not those coming down out of the
Delaware Bay. When I say big, I'm talking over 40 lbs.
On Friday, Larry posts:

The striper bite at the mouth of the DE Bay is really going strong... and
there are some really nice, big fish mixed in. Those fishing at Overfall
Shoals are doing very well with several fish over 30 lbs. being caught in
addition to a couple over 40 lbs. The anglers fishing out of Lewes are
really pounding them. The recent noreaster really blew the fish into the bay
where water temps are hovering around the mid-to-upper 50's. I would think
that the lumps off Sea Colony have to be holding some fish...Remember, even
if you have a MD fishing license you need a DE license if you are fishing in
DE waters."


Oceanic Pier (410-289-2602) is now open on Fridays, Sat, and Sunday at 8
AM. (no fishing license required when fishing on this pier). The pier didn't
have a lot of anglers due to the weather, but the anglers fishing were
catching some tautog. Anglers usually catch blues and trout at night on

Spec Rigs and
Got-cha Plugs. J.J. wants everyone to know that when you come to the
pier, go to the Oceanic Motel and park, then come buy your ticket and he
will give you a pass for your car. There is also a big municipal pay lot
about a block away from the pier. Call the Oceanic Pier at 410-289-2602 for
parking details.


Old Inlet (302-227-7974) posted on Nov 2nd : "
Striper action picked back up Tuesday on the incoming tide. Swim shads were
effective. Togging went right back to a good bite as well."


Bill Sports Center in Lewes, DEL (302-645-7654) reports stripers in the
Delaware Bay and Tautog at the Inner and Outer Wall and inshore wrecks when
the weather permits. Tautog are biting at the Indian River Inlet. No
bluefish reported from the surf... wonder where they went?

Lewes Harbour Marina (302-645-6227) reports on Nov 3rd:

Stripers Are Here!
The big bass have arrived, right on cue. Timing was good for a strong
northeast blow this past weekend to push migratory stripers into Delaware
Bay, and fish showed up over shoals at the Bay mouth, just on the heels of
the front. Halloween Monday offered the first fishable weather, and local
striper sharpies were chomping at the bit to get out and try for rockfish.
Evan Falgowski, Garrett Shipley and Lee Abel headed to Overfalls Shoal,
where they met with success while trolling Stretch 25+ plugs. The crew
caught 9 fish in all while working the running tides. .... Boats that fished
Wednesday found more fish. Chris Wagner was pulling a chartreuse Stretch 25+
plug on Overfalls Wednesday when he connected with a 42.6 pound trophy bass.
Evan Falgowski was back at it Wednesday, recording his heaviest striper so
far. The lunker linesider he trolled up at Overfalls weighed 46.2 pounds and
measured 50 inches long. ... Other boaters had bass while drifting spot and
eels, as well as by trolling diving plugs. Fish were also reported by
chunkers baiting with bunker on traditional structure. Chilly nights have
caused water temps to fall into the mid 50's, which is to the liking of fall
rockfish. More northeast wind is forecast for the weekend, which may prevent
boats from getting out, but it should help move additional baitfish and
gamefish into the area. The action should only get better as more stripers
slip into the Bay. The Lewes Harbour Striper Tournament is on now and runs
through November 22nd. The annual event offers cash prizes. Participants
must register at the store in advance of fishing.... Togging is still pretty
good on the rock Walls and Ice Breakers, with clean water. Bay reefs
continue to produce too, as long as conditions are ok. Captain Ted's fares
on the Angler had a nice catch at Site 7 Monday. Young fisherman Jacob Gier
celebrated his 9th birthday by boating a 7.85 pound citation tautog aboard
the Angler. Sea bass season reopened November 1st, and bassing was good at
Site 11 and on wrecks in 15 to 20 fathoms.

Please arrive 1/2 hour before scheduled departure with food, water, beverage
& a medium-sized cooler w/ice for fish. Bait is provided but you're welcome
to bring your own. We often -almost always- leave early. Show up late and
you'll see the west end of an east bound boat.

Hi All,
Managed to clear the inlet Thursday. A hard ebb tide and considerably more
remnant swell than I'd given credit for made that a dangerous task.
I've seen worse.
But not a lot worse.
Twenty yards north of the inlet entrance buoys the ocean was well-behaved.
Only rough where swell & current met, we enjoyed a nice day.
Did not enjoy a nice bite.
For whatever reason, cbass weren't taking bait very well nor a spoon at all.
High man was in the low-teens. This time of year that's a slow day.

Friday, however, looked a lot more like November. Double-headers as soon as
we came tight on anchor. When it slowed to some singles I adjusted anchor;
back to doubles.
Not a gift: Weather forecast had a big wind coming mid-day.
Forecast was right too.

Not a breath of air as we set off in blaze-orange sunrise. Between 10 & 11
AM the ocean became a different place.
Headed in early with a nice catch, I see a sailboat--a small sailboat--10
miles off the beach. Hailed on radio & close approach to wave it down;
Unanswered, she pressed on, her 30-some feet already already weathering
green-water seas at the transom.
At 10 AM there was a moderate breeze with leftover ground-swells. At 10 PM
waves were ten feet every 7 seconds..
I wonder if they made it.

Looking forward to a calmer spell of weather. Pretty sure I've got some good
fishing to tend to.
..............

Charlie Hutchinson's vision of renewed menhaden populations is coming onto
the regulatory battlefield in epic fashion. ASMFC takes up menhaden at its
Boston meeting this week.
Has to be something to it if MSSA, CCA, RFA, TNC, CBF --even Pew & Ocean
Conservancy for Pete's sake-- many others too; All agree action is needed.
Anytime Jim Donafrio of the Recreational Fishing Alliance & Lee Crockett,
Pew's Fisheries Policy Director, agree on anything, regulators ought to pay
very close attention--Millenarians too.
..............

CCA is asking for a cut in striped bass harvest (& bravo) because fishers
see populations of large fish shrinking. This isn't an overfishing problem
per-se but likely instead that mycobacteriosis, myco, is killing fish.
Linked to mal-nutrition, the disease is increasing 'natural mortality'
beyond anticipated levels.
Many feel there's a strong tie between menhaden abundance and striper
health, that a well-fed striper population suffers less disease: That
habitat, here in the form of forage species, is important.
..............

Summer flounder were the subject of a major announcement this week too.
Developing -- the gist of it is because the lion's share of fisheries
research funding is being spent in New England, Mid-Atlantic management has
been blindsided by a very poor fluke population assessment; That the
stock --once declared fully rebuilt-- has slipped back into 'overfished'
status.
Pretty safe bet that when the Executive Director of the Mid-Atlantic Council
issues a press release castigating National Marine Fisheries for lax
science: Trouble looms.

We all know how overfishing is addressed. . .
...........

Tog are going on the regulatory chopping block too. Its possible that sea
bass will as well.

MRFSS data for tautog really does have a couple private boat guys that go in
March & April from Ocean City, MD catching thousands of tog in 2010 -- far
more than all the party boats on the coast combined.
Not making this up: March/April MD private boat estimate has them catching
50,226 tog, keeping 18,572. Meanwhile, all "For-Hire" boats in all of the
Mid-Atlantic are estimated to have caught 13,952 tog and kept 4,380 of
them..
I fish a lot in March & April. I almost never see another boat. When I do
its a party boat.
Its one of the worst MRFSS recreational catch estimates ever.
Yet helps establish "Overfishing" has occurred..

Nowhere is management pondering where these temperate reef fish are living,
that between southern NJ & the VA/NC border almost every tautog lives on
man-made reef ..except for the last few remaining marine rockpiles, the
habitat too robust to have been destroyed by stern-towed gear in the last 60
years.

Sakes.

Any natural-reef populations of tautog --the populations of fish that should
be the target of fishery restoration-- would have lived on long-lost but
well documented oyster beds and in undocumented whip meadows off the coast.
They were not lost in targeted fishing. These populations were long gone
before there was a market for the species; These natural-reef tog
populations are missing due to natural habitat's decline: We ate the
oysters...

Post WWII landings of sea bass (with those war-surplus diesels put into new
trawlers; And these were sea bass caught and sold by the pound) ..the
commercial landings from the 1950s are greater than all decades since added
together.
How much natural hard-bottom reef was required to support such an
unimaginable population? Where is management's reef restoration plan?

Essential Fish Habitat is not in consideration..
At All.

Ludicrous catch-estimates upset commerce on reefs we've built --where tautog
are doing wonderfully-- while obvious ecological considerations haven't even
entered management's conversation.

As evidenced by hungry striped bass's susceptibility to mycobacteriosis;
weakfish's inability to live beyond age two; and tautog/sea bass 'rebuilding
plans' with not one thought of reef: I think NOAA's attempts to reproduce
past fish populations often run into ecological stopping points.

The pointless shaving or adding weeks of fishing season while
increasing/decreasing size & creel limits; What we fight so hard for in
economic reason really hasn't much impact on fish.

It only distracts from the primary task.

Real fishery restoration will result from real habitat restoration.

Regards,
Monty

Capt.Dan Stauffer (866-623-4746) of the Fin Chaser does wreck,
inlet and trolling trips. Dan's got great mid-week specials... Here's a
couple of his reports from this week: 11/04/11 Out for a day of Tog
fishing with the same crew as yesterday. Warned the guys before we left that
the winds are to go to twenty knots and then THIRTY knots sometime today and
we need to be back through the inlet before that happens. Set up on a cable
pile as the sun was rising. First thirty minutes was fairly slow but then
the Tog got out of bed. Bite was hot, no huge fish which was understandable
since we were less than six mile from the inlet, but plenty of action and
plenty of keepers. As the limit was reached the wind went from 5 - 10 to 20
knots in an instant. The guys didn't want to tempt fate, and told me to head
in. Back in the slip at 10am with a box full of Tog and two happy guys from
Ohio with a few extra $$$ in their pocket since today turned out to be a
half-day trip instead of a full day. As a side note; By 11 am the wind was
cranking 20 -25 out of the northeast, glad we were in the six post hot-spot
(aka the slip).

11/03/11 Running east in some very big swells looking to fill the box with
Sea Bass for these two guys from Ohio. First three drifts were horrible, no
fish. Capt. Monty arrived nearby and had the same result. Moved over to a
nearby wreck and finally found some hungry fish. As the day went on, the
bite improved greatly. The size however, not so much. Keeper ratio was
somewhere around 8 to 1. Not sure why the fish I was marking while drifting
didn't want to bite, prehaps the weather of the last few days and the
left-over swell had something to do with it. Back in the slip with twenty
five fish in the box and two guys really looking forward to Toggin'
tomorrow.

Maryland Fishing License

Anglers fishing in Ocean City will need to purchase a saltwater fishing
license. This license will cover both the Chesapeake Bay and the coastal
waters and surf of Ocean City and Assateague Island. Yes, this includes surf
fishing. If you already have a Chesapeake Bay Saltwater license you are good
to go! Anglers will be able to purchase the license online. The
license you want to choose is "Bay and Coastal Sport" You can either choose
a year-round or 7-day. The online site will add on a small convenience fee.
The state has set the tackle stores up with paper licenses so we can do your
licenses in our stores.
If you know you are coming to Ocean City,and you want to get it done ahead
of time you can
also call a toll free number (1-800-918-2870)
or print and mail in an application. Boat
Licenses: $50 and everyone on your boat can go
fishing without a license. You will get a personal license along with your
boat license, so you can go shore fishing as well. They will send you your
sticker for your boat in the mail. If you come to our stores, we have the
stickers.

Mail the application to their main office:

Maryland Dept. of Natural resources
Annapolis Service Center
P.O. Box 1869
1804 West Street, Suite 300
Annapolis, MD 21401


If you are going to be fishing on a private boat with someone who has a Boat
License, you don't have to buy a license, but you do have to register online. This
is free but cannot be done over the phone. (The state says it has no money
for a phone line.) Print out your number and keep an id with
you when you go fishing. You can also download it to your smart phone and
show it to the DNR officer.
It only takes a couple minutes. If you have no printer or smart phone, write
down the authorization number.

Another interesting note about the license is that if you buy a VA license,
it is good in MD, and vice versa. If you are fishing in MD with a VA licence
you do need to register with MD online. Again, this is free. This is so each
state can "try" to figure out "how many" fish are being caught in their own
individual states. (VA Free
Registry)

If you want to go fishing in Ocean City without a license, your choices will
be the "Oceanic Pier" or to go fishing on a party or charter boat. You can
also go crabbing and clamming in Ocean City without a license. Or you can
fish off your own private dock.

Senior citizens 65 and older. Cost is $5 if you have a MD driver's license
and are a resident of MD,
but if you are a non-resident there is no break. No break for boat licenses
either. $50 resident or non-resident,
plus around $3 for the internet fees.

Contact Info
If you have any questions regarding Maryland's sport fishing license
requirements, you may contact Fisheries Service via e mail:
customerservice@dnr.state.md.us or by calling (410-656-9526).
