Maryland & Chesapeake Bay Fishing Report- May 30, 2024
Sailing out of West Ocean City, Captain Monty Hawkins of Morning Star Fishing Charters reported that sea bass fishing has improved pretty drastically over the past week. There have been days where their anglers really had to work for a bite, but the fishing, generally, has been much better all around with fish taking jigs and baited rigs. The skipper has been marking large clouds of sea bass on his electronics on most outings, and there has been plenty of life out there in the form of whales, dolphins, and even a few loggerhead turtles. Although they have had to battle some serious fog on several occasions, sea bass fishing was good yesterday (5/29) with a boat full of regulars; despite a slow pick to start out the morning, a couple anglers had catches in the double digits and everyone took home fillets for the table. Give them a shout to reserve your spot on the next trip!
