Harbor Tackle, West Ocean City, Md. Fishing Report for May 20, 2010
Stripers are being taken from the surf at AI and North Ocean City. Mixed with the stripers are dogfish, skates, blues, sand bar sharks. The most productive bait has been fresh bunker, live peelers and sandfleas. A couple of my customers told me the flounder catch is getting better, however, not many keepers. Best places to look for flounder have been the south bay from the airport down. The striper bite has been on at the Rt. 50 Bridge at night along with the shad. Blues were at the Inlet last night. Some nice tog are still being caught and the creel limit has gone down to 2 per person per day with a 14 inch minimum.
Congratulations to the following: Tim Adle of Bel Air, Maryland with his 15 lb 10 oz 36 ½ inch striper taken from AI on fresh bunker. The team effort of Phillip and Kathryn Allen from Hagerstown, Maryland produced their 16 lb 10 oz 35 ¾ inch striper hooked up at Assateague using fresh bunker. She casted and hooked up the fish. Kathryn gave the rod to her husband as the fish was too large for her to fight and Phil beached the striper. Bill Goins came in with a 38 inch striper also from Assateague.
Harbor Tackle has fresh bunker, live bloodworms, live green crabs, live eels, black saltys, live chowder clams, big live minnows, and live peelers.
