Maryland & Chesapeake Bay Fishing Report- May 9, 2024
From Ocean City, the guys at Always Bent Fishing OC reported that there’s been a decent bite for speckled trout in the salt marshes of Chesapeake Bay this week. Taylor Bakke was fishing for specks on Tuesday morning after a few days of good fishing, but with little to show for his morning efforts, he moved spots to some deeper water and began jigging. After the morning left much to be desired, he jokingly mentioned to his friend “I’d settle for a weakfish at this point, but I doubt that will happen.” He had only ever seen one weakfish landed at this location, but minutes later, he was battling what he assumed was a large bluefish until he pulled up a true tide runner weakfish (which he caught on film, see video on @alwaysbentfishingoc). The fish took a 4-inch soft-plastic paddletail that Taylor was jigging around bridge pilings.
