Had a few small, short runs of Spot on the early morning incoming tide; and 1 "keeper" Speckled Trout that we are aware of. They have been getting a few Spot down on the end this afternoon/evening, but it has been slower due to the SE wind. The wind is supposed to change sometime on Fri and head back out of the North. The next incoming tide will start at 3:30am and be high at 9am.
PLEASE CALL 757-481-7071 OVERNIGHT AND TOMORROW MORNING FOR AN UPDATED REPORT.
The water temp has finally dropped down to around 75. Let hope it doesn't decide to warm up again ;o)
When we are crowded and busy:
SHARE THE END OF THE PIER WITH EVERYONE!
ONLY 2 RODS MAY BE USED AT ONCE!
DO NOT SPREAD OUT! CAST ONLY IN FRONT OF YOU!
Be careful... We have seen a lot of under-sized Red Drum and under-sized Speckled Trout recently. Red Drum must be a Min 18 IN. to a Max 26 IN.; you can keep 3. Specks must be bigger than 14 IN. (only 1 may be bigger than 24 IN.); you can keep 5. VMRC Regs are here:
