It’s officially May, and it shows! The weather at the inlet is gorgeous and the fish are biting.
We have mostly rockfish coming up out of this region, but tuna reports are still coming out of NC. Fingers crossed this warm weather sends them up this way!
This summer, we are starting our First Fish Club! To be in the club, all you have to do is catch your first fish EVER, bring us a picture of you and your catch, and that’s it, you’re in! You will receive a medal, a certificate, and you’ll get your name on our First Fish Member board in our Main Office.
**If you want to join the club during this crisis, please call ahead as our office is closed at 302-227-3071.
Introducing the FIRST MEMBER of our FIRST FISH CLUB, Megan! Using her “trade secret” (bucktail), she hauled in this beauty out of the north side of the Burton’s Island causeway this past Wednesday. Congratulations, and welcome to the club, Megan!
Masks are required in ALL state parks, including the marina, due to the current health crisis. Please plan accordingly if you are headed down this way!
Thanks again! We’ll see you soon!

Happy Spring Everyone!!! Crazy times we are all living right now. But a perfect time to get out on the water with your family and get hooked on fishing.
We have seen and heard the reports from NC and can only hope all those Tuna’s start heading North soon. The weather has been a bear all the wind and rain but this too shall pass.
There have been some Rockfish popping up here and there around the inlet and coastline but nothing red hot yet.
With much regret we have had to cancel our 6th Annual Kid’s Catch Tournament held June 19-21. We will be announcing dates for 2021 !!! that gives everyone a year to get geared up.
We will be posting some new info about our new Kid’s First Fish Program and also our new Kid’s Fishing Program to begin this 2020 season.
Till next time Tight Lines & better Times are coming soon 🙂
