Inshore we are catching some nice red drum, black drum, blues, flounders, spots, gray trout, speckled trout and croakers.

On the piers they are catching about the same as last week. Virginia mullet, flounder, bluefish, spots and croakers.

In the surf, people are catching pompano, flounder, puppy drum, Virginia mullet, black drum, bluefish, spots and sharks.

Offshore, they are reporting catches of barracuda, king mackerel, and dolphin and on the bottom some nice groupers, snappers, and black bass.

Fishing tip of the week is on setting the hook for inshore fishing. I have noticed a lot of my charters go into the panic mode when they have a small bit. As soon as the fish comes in contact with the hook, don’t jerk, jerk, jerk. Let the fish pull and then set the hook. Keep the tip of the rod up in the air and reel in steady. Enjoy the time it takes to land the fish. You will catch a lot more fish by not panicking when you get a bite.

Keep fishing and stay safe.
