Today was unfortunately slow. Wrong wind direction, spotty rain showers, and flat water did not help matters any either. They did get a few skate, but not enough fish today to write home about. (There are rumors of Croaker possibly heading this way, but they are unconfirmed.)
We have been getting a few crabs.

Incoming tide is typically better than outgoing tide. Incoming tide is approx. 1 hour after Low up to 1 hour before High.
