July 2018 Delaware Fishing Report

Freshwater:  I was out of state for most of July but I had a chance to fish the midwest and really enjoyed it. Didn't get the Walleye I was after but the perch fishing was excellent.The rivers around Delaware have been high due to recent rains.  However, I had alot of luck with Rockfish near Appoquinimink River using a Shad Rap I had bought for Walleye.  When I went fishing recently I noted Carp, Largemouth Bass, a citation sized White Perch, Catfish, and American Eel.

I look forward to fall troutfishing in PA and upstate Delaware.  I tie my own flies using a Personal Fly Tying StationFly Fishing Station You can DIY too! Here are a few pictures:


Saltwater: 
Flounder Fishing in the Indian River Bay continues to be good, despite the rain.  A fair amount of anglers are also catching alot of Croakers in the Inlet.  Next chance I get, I plan to go down to Bethany Beach before dawn to try my luck for some Kingfish on the surf.   Good luck to everyone fishing out there and remember to pick up a copy of the acclaimed book Big Bass In the Small Wonder!
