Today we had a 3/4 day inshore fishing charter out of Rudee Inlet in Virginia beach and drum were our target species. We started off catching black druma nd kept a couple smaller ones for the table. The fishing was very good while the tide was right and we caught several black drum as well as a hundred plus pound stingray and a thirteen pound four ounce citation sheepshead. This was an unusual catch for this time of year but we will take it! sheepshead are very good to eat and sheepshead over ten pounds are rare. After the tide slowed down, so did the black drum bite.
For those who wish to do an inshore fishing charter out of Virginia Beach, the fishing is getting very good. We have seen the drum fishing become progressively better over the last couple weeks and now we are at worst getting several bites per charter. For some of our charters the inshore fishing for red drum and black drum has been on fire and we are seeing very good catches and plenty of trophy catches of both species. The time for drum fishing out of Virginia Beach is now. We can catch these drum for about the next two weeks in 3/4 day inshore charters and full day inshore charters. After that the attention will shift focus inshore to spanish mackerel, bluefish, sharks, and cobia.
