Tangier Sound Shallows

Type: Chesapeake
Region: Southern
Location: Tangier Sound Shallows

Marsh banks, deep channels, structure and creeks all held Rockfish ranging from 20-25 inches this past weekend in Tangier Sound. Water temperatures got up to the low 60's which had fish actively feeding during the right tides. Productive lures were Wildeye storm shads, curl tail grubs on lead heads and topwater plugs. Jeremy Mercer and Ben Fleming were also able to entice a few with fly tackle.
