Chincoteague Fishing Report through 05/23/2013

 | By Seamus on 5/23/2013 5:20:30 AM | Views (526)

What a good run we have been having.  We have in LIVE PEELERS, FRESH CLAMS, AND FRESH BUNKER.  It seems like the stripers and drum are still around but other species are also starting to be more abundant like kingfish, rays, a few spot and some croakers.  Flounder fishing has been a bit tough here lately with the winds and murky water.  I've been busy with the website learning a few new things for our upcoming launch.  We are looking forward to a good Holiday Weekend.  Stop on in for the latest fishing tackle, biggest selection of bait and fishing information.  Good Luck Fishing!
