We hope everyone is surviving this final day of the dangerous heat wave. The marina and the DSSP beaches have been pretty empty.
OFFSHORE
Offshore boats landed some nice sized gaffers, plenty of tilefish, and some scattered wahoo.
The tuna headed out for cooler, deeper water. We’re hoping the cool front Monday and Tuesday will bring them back.
INSHORE
Inshore reports of flounder, bluefish, and a couple nice cobias.
KUDOS to all the brave anglers that could stand the heat and finished the Paradise Bay flounder fishing tournament. We can’t wait to hear the results.
Here are some more pictures from this week of fishing
As always, wishing everybody tight lines and good times!

Well, we asked for it – summer is here and the sun is shining down. It’s a little breezier about 15 miles out, so hop on your boat, a friend’s, or one from our charter fleet to escape the heat! Call Miss Carolyn at 302-227-3071 to hook you up!
OFFSHORE
Tuna, tuna, tuna! While the bite is a little slower compared to last week’s epic frenzy, yellowfin continue to hit the deck in decent numbers. Most brought in to IRM have been 50lb or over.
Anglers hooking bigger blues as the summer rolls through. Mr. Fisher (apt name) snagged this near 16lb blue out at the Hot Dog.
INSHORE
Inshore anglers are still coming home with a mixed bag. Sheepshead, bluefish, kingfish, and now mackerel are a consistent catch. Pompano, spot, ling, flounder, and late-night rockfish are will grab a lucky angler’s line here and there.
Once again, thank you to everyone who participated in the 5th Annual Kids Catch All event. Click here to see the wrap-up video done by Unscene Productions!
Signing off, and wishing everybody tight lines and good times this week!

Fishing is still red hot as we head into the weekend before Independence Day. Whether you’re celebrating this weekend or next, be sure to wear sunscreen and drink plenty of water. Looks like we’re in for a sunny couple of weeks!
OFFSHORE
The tuna bite is consistent, with anglers landing mostly yellowfin, but bigeye and bluefin are in the mix. The canyons remain the hotspot for fishing activity, with record numbers of boats heading out every day.
One lucky angler might have scored the Delaware state record for false albacore on the Last $ with Capt. Rodney Meyers, one of IRM’s charter fleet! This is unconfirmed as of now, but we will update once we get more information.
Heavy flounder have been hitting the deck consistently, as have mahi.
INSHORE
As the water temperature rises, we’re seeing more species reeled in along the surf and inshore.
Sheepshead, croaker, triggerfish, trout, and spot made up the “mixed-bag” catches that anglers have reported.
Fishermen seeing more consistent bites with kings, sea bass, flounder, and blues. Rockfish are good at the inlet after dark.
Don’t wait – take advantage of the good fishing and good weather before it goes away! Call Miss Carolyn at 302-227-3071 to book your charter trip with one of our 26 charter fleet vessels. Trips are booking FAST so call ahead.
As always, wishing everybody tight lines and good times!

Wow, what an amazing weekend! Thank you to everyone who showed up to support this event and the Lyme Disease Association of Delmarva (LDAD). We had 107 young anglers enter, and 12 went home with trophies. This event raised almost $15,000 dollars for LDAD to further spread the education of the Delmarva community about tick-borne diseases, an increasingly important cause.
Special thanks to Senator Ernie Lopez for taking time from his busy schedule to come down and present the awards and to speak further about the Lyme disease epidemic.
Our DIVISION WINNERS:
All division winners were determined by weight except for the “Unusual Catch” division, which was left up to the Weighmaster to decide.
The rest of the pictures will be posted on the Kids Catch All website soon.
Of course, thank you to all of our sponsors, whose generous donations of money and raffle items made this tournament happen.
Thank you again to everyone who came out for the tournament, especially to the parents, uncles/aunts, grandparents, guardians of the kids who fished this event. We hope everyone enjoyed it as much as we did.
As always, wishing everyone tight lines and good times!
