Harbor Tackle’s Fishing Report, May 1, 2006

Friday while fishing for stripers at Assateague Island, J C Kostyak of Newark, Delaware caught 2 flounder sized 16 ½ and 18 inches. Tom Walker hooked up a 34 inch striper. If you could survive the wind, the surf is producing blues, stripers, black drum, flounder and dogfish. At the Inlet and Rt. 50 Bridge, tog shad, stripers, blues are making a showing. Dan Benson of Reisterstown, Maryland caught a 22 inch flounder using a minnow and squid rig. He was fishing behind the Convention Center. Two guys from Ocean City hooked up with a couple of legal flounder behind the airport. Harbor Tackle has fresh bunker, fresh herring, live eels, live minnows, live green crabs, and live peelers.

Great catch. Is that red on the fish, skin sores

[speeedyb1]

no the red on the fish was not a disease it wasn't there when i caught the fish it was from laying on the ice in my cooler and from possible blood from the gills it was only on the one side that was down in the ice chest

Harbor Tackle’s Fishing Report, May 4, 2006

Dave Weller from Ocean City caught a 39 ½ inch 23 lb 1 oz striper at Assateague using fresh herring. Another fisherman hooked up with two 4 foot doggies, 18 inch trout, 34 inch striper and a 5 foot shark. A few black drum have been taken at the beach. He thought the shark was a sand tiger shark. Some tog have been caught at the Inlet. Since the blow I have not heard of any flounder caught. Still some shad around mixed with some blues and stripers. Harbor Tackle has fresh bunker, live eels, live minnows, live green crabs, and live peelers.

18" trout? Maybe there will be more of them this year.

Sam, you notice the 5' shark?

[ocsnapper]

Man I can't wait to get out next week, I'm hurting not being able to fish this week. :mrgreen:

[Sam]

I wouldn't be surprised if the sand tigers started showing up any time now. :-) The Threshers won't be far behind. It won't be until mid-June before we see the larger Sandbar sharks show up. Although, with the way things have been going lately, you never know. :-)
