This is Lin Bock again, taking over the fishing report for this evening as Jimmy and Jessica are still up in New York/Connecticut.
Assateague Island beaches were being worked on this morning in order to clear the roads and parking lots. There were a number of anglers visible up and down the beach despite the long trek from the parking available at the Visitor's Center. Word has it that one keeper and one short Rock were caught, but none were brought in to Capt. Steve's for photos. We hear that most of the roads and parking lots should be cleared by tomorrow or Sunday. The wind subsided nicely as the day progressed, and it was a lovely day for fishing or any other outdoor activity. Forecasts for the rest of the weekend sound fantastic with temperatures in the 60's and light winds. Capt. Steve's has plenty of fresh bunker and everything else you need to have a great day of fishing at the beach or out on your boat. Tom will be happy to help you out%21
Odd that Jimmy would ask me to write this report today since this was the day I caught my first Rock of the fall season. In fact, Roland and I landed six shorts on our skiff today, the largest being 27 1/2". All were returned to the bay in fine condition to grow much BIGGER%21 We're hoping that this is the start of good things to come. In any case, it was fun to feel the pull of a Rock on my little spinning rod again%21
Good luck to all tomorrow and Sunday%21 %7E%7E%7E Lin
