WGMD Fishing Report 3-14-15
Wednesday was another nice day and it looks like Thursday will be even better.
Ice House Bait and Tackle sent me a report late on Tuesday that the Bobby Smith family fished the Broadkill River with bloodworms and caught some short rockfish and one keeper.
I am getting good reports from Pirate鈥檚 Cove and the Oregon Inlet Fishing Center on giant bluefin tuna.聽 A friend of mine fished on the Backlash out of the Fishing Center and brought in a giant bluefin.聽 A boat out of Pirate鈥檚 Cove had a 650 pounder.
The way the bluefin regulations read, you can keep one giant per season per boat.聽 You can play catch and release with as many as you can handle.
I have caught a few of these big fish and I can tell you they will wear you out real quick.聽 The ones I caught were on 130-pound gear with a 400-pound top shot.聽 The idea is to keep the fish from taking more than that top shot.聽 I was strapped into a fighting chair and the captain and mate worked as hard as I did.聽 I will say it is an exciting experience.
