Fishing Report for Wed, May 10th

WE ARE OPEN 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK!

The pier is only open up to the "T." PLEASE DO NOT PASS THE BARRICADE RAILING! It is for your safety.

Today has been a bit slow. They have caught a few decent Roundhead here and there. We had some nice-sized Puppy Drum overnight last night.

We're hoping they do that again tonight. If they do, you should have some luck around midnight/1am.

BRING A JACKET OR SWEATSHIRT!

Crabs are biting and we would say the catch has been okay. They are the average size you would expect for early in the season; the water is still a little cool.
