April Fishing

Well, here we are nearly mid way through April.  Fishing has been picking up steadily and would most likely be awesome if the weather would just stay nice.  Stripers are being taken along the Deleware Bay beaches, In the Bay, in the rivers, back bays, and even a few along the ocean front.  They are here.  I've heard scattered reports of Weakies being taken in some Perch nets in the Bay, but have no real proof.  That would be a nice sign of things to come though.  I'd love to see a solid return of Weakies.  Flounder season regulations have been posted and look promising.  Hopefully we have a nice run of doormats this year!  I just want to see a solid year of good fishing!

I have Brynnie-B ready to go.  Just waiting to finalize my insurance and I'll be running charters again.  Rates and times are posted on my web page, but as always, trips are fully customizable to meet your needs. 

I've taken a few trips into the back bays as of late.  It's been quiet so far, but I'm thinking that has a bit to do with the incoming tide and colder water.  There has been some Herring around though providing some excitement and bait for later use.  Eventually I'll catch the tide right and find some nice Stripers.

Still carving plugs too.  There is definitely a learning curve to this hobby.  Getting the lures balanced and swimming nicely, getting the paint on neatly and evenly, getting the wire through, tight, and straight,...  It is quite addictive though.  And fun.  Now I just need to catch some fish on my lures!

Guess that's all for now.  Stay tuned for my next report.  Feel free to e-mail or call for fishing info or trip information.
