CHESAPEAKE BAY/
OUTER BANKS
Dr. Julie Ball reports the most predictable fishing scene is the back water venue, where speckled trout are responding well to jigs, plastics and mirrolures. Rudee Inlet, Long Creek, the Poquoson flats and the Elizabeth River are the most productive speck areas.
Puppy drum are in most of the same areas, as well as in the surf lines along the oceanfront.
Tautog action is good within bay waters. Most any lower bay structure is giving up keeper sized tog from 3 to 5 pounds.
Striped bass action is picking up in the lower bay and within the lower inlets, rivers and off fishing piers. Bigger fish are mostly falling to live bait and wire lining along the bridges and tubes.
The flounder scene is slow inside the bay, with scattered flatfish coming from within Lynnhaven and Rudee inlets.
Dr. Ken Neill III of the Peninsula Salt Water Sport Fisherman's Association reports the Elizabeth River's speck bite is on and this fishery will get better as waters cool. There are plenty of puppy drum in these same areas.
This storm and the cooler temperatures after it should be the signal for the big bluefish. Rockfish action also should improve with the cooler weather. All of the area bridges are holding rockfish.
There was some very good flounder fishing around the coastal wrecks like those at the Triangles and Tower Reef.
