Fishing Report for 5/28/18

Written on: May 28th, 2018 in Fishing Report

Happy Memorial Day!!!  The weekend did not turn out as well as we had hoped but some boats did manage to get out and do some fishing.    Inshore reports of scattered Sea Bass, Flounder and Rockfish even in the Inlet.  Offshore reports of the first Bluefins, Yellowfins, Mako, and Big Eye over the past few days south of the Poorman’s and in the Baltimore Canyon.  Let’s hope this trend keeps going with more fish, better weather and water!!

 

Mike Lewis of Ocean View, DE caught and released this rather large black drum while fishing one night up in the Delaware Bay off of Cape May NJ using surf clams.  The fish was estimated to weigh around 40lbs.
