Fishing Report for Sat Oct 15th

WE ARE OPEN 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK!

The pier is open up to the "T" until it can be professionally repaired.  PLEASE DO NOT PASS THE BARRICADE! It is for your safety.

The Spot runs have been decent and have mainly been on the incoming tide. The next high tide is at 9:30pm. They've been pan-sized and larger, and they seem to be biting around the middle of the pier.

They are still catching a few nice-sized Croaker here and there. Hopefully that will pick up soon.

We are still catching nice-sized Puppy Drum (Red Drum) with some keepers mixed in. They have been biting up close and most people are using either cut bait, finger mullet, clams, or clam Fishbites.

We have seen quite a few undersized Speckled Trout again today as well; no keepers.

***PLEASE READ THE PIER RULES AND ETIQUETTE POSTED AT THE TOP OF OUR FACEBOOK PAGE!

(For the most accurate tides, use Cape Henry and/or Lynnhaven Inlet for the address - the pier is about half-way between the two points)

Incoming tide is typically better than outgoing tide. Incoming tide is approx. 1 hour after Low up to 1 hour before High.
