Current Fishing Report

First of all - thank you all for your patience, calls and emails while we work through our technical difficulties with the website. We were suppose to be transferring "seamlessly" to another server and you see how that went. After using a backup to retrieve our website from a black hole, we have some glitches that we are still working out today.
If you have saved our main page or message board page as a favorite link -you will need to resave them again.
Since our fishing report from yesterday was lost, I am putting the photos back out there so everyone has a chance to be on the site for a day.
Those out fishing the beach in the early morning or later afternoon found catches of bluefish, sea mullets, croakers, a few pompano, a couple of puppy drum, flounder, and a few black drum.
