Today is the last chance to weigh in for Dick's Bait and Tackle Memorial Day Weekend Derby. Even if you're not in the derby stop by to see some fish weighed in and share some fishing tales.
The action has slowed a bit this week. The bluefishing was spotty off of Chappy and the bass fishing has been a slow pick all around the island. We had some great weather this weekend but the fish didn't want to cooperate.
The light tackle action is still good, and with many stripers in the bays and lagoons the fly fishing and light tackle spinning gear has been fun and explosive.
Squid fishing has slowly gotten better the past few days, although it is still random, with one person filling a 5-gallon bucket while another is barely catching a dozen. Hopefully things will turn around this week with better moon phases and more normalized tides.
