On really flat calm days you can see so much action on the water at the beach. Fly fishing the surf is fun in the early mornings, and productive. I don’t care what the tide is early mornings everything wakes up and feeds. A triple tail or two would be nice.Ī friend of mine is trying to talk me into a fly-fishing trip down south for tarpon outside Virginia. I just got a few new long rod wizard wands and need to break them in first, but that sounds like fun. The grill is waiting for my favorite summer beach snack. The pompano are showing in the Outer Banks more and more, so not long now. I’m just curious to see what other fish we see this summer. As long as I can bail a dozen or so a week, I have plenty of fish to eat. The meat will keep a couple days in the fridge.
I like to just use what we catch that day and never really freeze any of the smaller fish. These all make for great table fare, with fish tacos for days. There are a lot of white perch in the Broadkill river and kingfish are thick at times in the surf, spot as well. It’s the best time to fish this time of year. The weekends are pretty crowded too, which makes for tougher fishing the closer you are to shore. The hot weather helps because it forces earlier and later trips which produce more catches.
The fishing is better offshore for flounder than inshore or along the beaches and coastal waterways. It reminds me of being out with my grandfather when I was a kid, especially that coffee grinder reel sound. It takes forever and a day to reel in a normal cast, compared to a reel of today that takes seconds. For a difficulty bonus, the reel is taped to the rod butt there isn’t a reel seat. This rod was made by an old Montauk surf caster it was not built for bait and wait comfort. I like using it in the summer for fun and it still functions. It is great for the small surf fishing the rod is from the 70s and she still has a little back bone to her. We took turns reeling that beast in because after the third time you don’t want to pick up the 50-year-old rod that weighs like a ton of bricks. It isn’t the actual issue of weight it is the fact that the old Penn reel has about a one to zero gear ratio. I had the old 13-foot honey Lamiglass set up with an old Penn greenie reel - the ones that sound like a coffee grinder when you reel. It was a fun day it’s always fun when you are catching. Last Wednesday we went to Assateague and found a nice spot with fish signs on the beach. We set up and hammered spot and kingfish for hours. The fishing is hot to not, you just have to put in that time. It will not be nearly as bad this weekend. When you’re out there, keep your eyes open for the handful of sheep and the resident llama named Dalai.That heat wave though! It has been brutal, so we fish at night, predawn and are home by early morning to get back into the air conditioning. It has been a little rough some days be sure to stay hydrated and look to your people and pets for heat exhaustion signs. If the weather’s nice, take a plate and a glass outside to the covered patio, or claim a shaded Adirondack chair situated under an old pecan tree. Kalasi has one of the better food menus in town, with a sampling of Indian snacks, tikka masala flatbreads and samosas with mint chutney. The former includes Malbec, Merlot and Sangiovese, while the latter is composed of less common varietals and blends, like Sagrantino and Teroldego. Wines are grouped into two collections: Heritage and Reincarnation.
