Fishing Report Sept 22 2013

For Sunday Sept 22 2013, it is definitely a different day.  Today is the autumnal equinox, the first day of fall (officially sometime this afternoon).  Last nights showers will probably continue through midday yielding to partly cloudy skies with a high of 76 degrees.  South winds at less than 10 mph will shift to NNE increasing to 15-20 mph as the edge of this front passes over  early this afternoon.  Sunset is 7:04 pm and sunrise tomorrow is 6:50 am
First tide is low at 3:39 am, high is 9:51 am
Second tide is low at 4:25 pm and high at 10:05 pm

The weather is putting a damper on fishing action this morning.  Checking with the piers fishermen are in the single digits but it tends to be a slow start on sundays anyway.  Sea water temp at the Duck pier is 73 degrees.  Am expecting some more puppy drum and sea mullet to show up in the surf – sand fleas should be the first bait of choice.  Here’s hoping this weather starts chasing some fish out of the Chesapeake Bay.
