Happy Spring to Everyone!  We sure are ready to do some Fishing!!!

Not a lot of action yet although we have had some Tog and a couple small Rockfish landed.  It looks like the water is warming up and the weather will hopefully begin to cooperate.

After canceling last year due to COVID it seems everyone is ready to get back out on water and bring their catch to the dock to see who will be the big trophy winners!!!

There is a list of all of our events planned for the 2021 season.  Of course things subjected to change as we all are use to by now and Covid restrictions and all guidelines will be followed.   🙂

Fishing Report for 2/9/21

Written on: February 8th, 2021 in Fishing Report

Not much is happening at the Marina at this time.  We haven’t had any of our vessels hitting  the open waters lately.  The strong winds,  storms and cold temps have kept everyone tied down tight.  We are into a lot of winter projects around the Marina and we have gone through many challenges thus far.  Please send warm thoughts not only for the good days ahead but for the staff members we have lost due to COVID-19.  We will continue to do our best to be available to the public and will continue with strong COVID-19 safe practices and guidelines.

Hope to have some reports coming soon.  Let’s all keep fingers crossed for some better weather and some great fishing!!!

You may want to get your trip booked NOW!  Last year was an extremely busy year for our Charter’s and we expect to be even busier this season.

Till next time Tight Lines & Safe Times for all!!!
