Labor Day weekend saw huge crowds in Delaware – on the beaches and boardwalks – thanks to the beautiful weather. Governor Carney during this week’s coronavirus update says those large crowds present a challenge as to where the state’s virus numbers will turn out. However we won’t know until testing is done over the next…

WGMD Fishing Report 9-6-20

By Mari Lou / September 6, 2020

While I didn’t see any small craft advisories on Saturday, most captains looked at the forecast and decided to stay at the dock while the few that tried to sail came in early.  At least two head boats did put in a full day, but said conditions were bad and fishing was slow. At Lewes…

Thursday was sunny and bright and those who fished structure in the ocean and bay did well.  The rest of the weekend looks good so far as the weather so we should be able to get out there after those flounder, dolphin and sea bass. Ronnie at Lewes Harbour Marina said the Grizzly came back…

WGMD celebrates 40 years of broadcasting this year! This picture goes back to 2016 – and the first or 2nd year that our barn swallows began nesting on our security cameras by the front door. This year Walt put up a nest cam – which looked down into the nest – and we got to see these little guys breaking out of their eggs and waiting for mom and dad to bring food! They were just a few days old in this picture. They’ve been back every year since they found WGMD! / Click for full view

Tuesday saw a northeast wind and very few boats tried to fish in the ocean or bay.  The rest of the week looks good and all we can do is hope the weather men and women are correct. The big news happened on Monday when Evan Falgowski checked in to Lewes Harbour Marina with an…

Monday saw good fishing weather on the bay and the ocean and boats were able to reach fish in both locations.  A northeast wind is on tap for Tuesday and that might make for some rougher conditions. Amanda, at Lewes Harbour Marina, said Jules Mister caught a nice triggerfish at the Outer Wall on sand…

While Sunday was a beautiful day on land, it was a tad rough on the water.  A northwest wind has no lee shore on Delaware Bay and while you can hug the beach in the ocean, the fishing is best 12 to 15 miles out and that’s where things get nautical. Tommy at Lewes Harbour…

Saturday arrived with lots of wind and rain as promised.  Small craft advisories are up for Sunday morning, but Monday does look fishable. Tommy at Lewes Harbour Marina said no one went out of there on Saturday which is no great surprise.  He did have a few reports from Friday when Kyle Falgowski caught a…
