🎶 I'm Henry the Eighth, I am. Henry the Eight I am, I am. I got married....♫
Second verse, same as the first.

So, that's kind of what the fishing report has been all week. If the following report sounds familiar; that's because it is.
Daytime fishing has been slow due to the heat, and the water temps being above 80 degrees. They've gotten some little, piddly stuff during the day, but not much.
Early evening has been some smallish fish, and occasionally rays or skate.
Very early morning (before dark - between midnight and 9am) has been decent. Nice-sized Roundhead (Whiting/Sea Mullet/Southern Kingfish), some pan-sized Spot, and a few small to pan-sized Croaker.
We've also seen some small Dogfish and one baby Hammerhead (yes, it was a hammerhead, I saw the photos).
Crabbing remains phenomenal!
WE SUGGEST YOU BRING YOUR SUNSCREEN AND DRINK PLENTY OF WATER if you are coming out during the day!!
