The Judy V Fishing Report - Updated:
01/31/2012
Current Report:
1/31/2012 The head boat Judy V. got out over the past week-end on Saturday and Sunday. Saturday's trip was not so hot with very few keepers making it on board due to the drift and the fish just didn't seem to like the green crabs that day. The boat came in with only 7 or 8 fish that day. Sunday was beautiful with light winds, clear skies and a much more productive day with 30 keepers making it on board. The bite started right off the first drop and it was a fairly steady bite for those that were using the secret bait. Most of the fish caught weighed about 3-3 1/2 lbs. All in all the group had a nice day and were pleased with their catch. Check out the pictures in the gallery. We are planning on another trip this week-end and the weather looks to be good, so give us a call and make your reservation now. 01/26/2012 The Judy V. will be running a full day trip this week-end for tautog. The trip will be 7am-3pm and cost $75. Call 302-226-2214
11/27/2011 Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. Just a note to let you know that we are still running fishing trips. We are running on our fall/winter schedule which is a full day trip on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. These trips are from 7am-3pm and the cost is $75. We need a minimum of 10 people to go and we will take no more than 25 people. Reservation are required. We will be fishing for Stripers, tautog or seabass. Bait is provided. Please call 302-226-2214 or 877-613-6022. We will be available for charters as well. Calls can be taken between 7am-5pm and if we are not in please just leave a message, we will get back to you as soon as we can. Look forward to hearing from you. Deanna 10/2/2011 Hello to everyone and my apologies for not keeping up with the report. The Judy V. is still running morning half-day trips for black sea bass until Oct 11th. We will than switch to a full day schedule on the week-ends. Friday, Saturday and Sunday 7am-3pm. We will be fishing for tautog and possibly rockfish. The boat had been doing very well with flounder until Hurricane Irene came by and stirred the bottom up, but after it settled down there have been some decent days for black sea bass that have happened. We did get out this past Thursday and Friday and had good catches of black sea bass, croaker and blue fish. Saturday the wind picked up when the cold front passed through and made it difficult to hold bottom so there were fewer fish caught that day. If you are interested in fishing with us, give us a call to make a reservation. 302-226-2214
6/19/2011 Happy Father's Day!! Hope you remembered Dad today. The head boat has been running out with half-day trips twice a day. 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm. Cost is $40 per person with $5 rod rental if needed. The sea bass bite has been fair to good, but some days are not so hot.
6/5/2011 The head boat "Judy V." has been making trips out to the inshore sites as well. The bite has been somewhat slow but there have been keepers taken home by some and throw backs for others. The Wheeler family from Wilmington, had a great trip even though they might not have gotten a lot they had a ball. Jimmy, from Hockessin, DE took home 8 keepers, but also had lots of throw backs. As the days get warmer we are looking forward to seeing more keepers come to the area along with flounder too. We are running half-day trips everyday now. 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm. Give us a call to make a reservation. 302-226-2214 5/24/2011 With the return of black sea bass season the Judy V. headed out on Sunday on a full day trip and came back with plenty fish in the cooler for everyone. Everyone went home with at least 5-10 fish per person. The boat also got out on a half-day trip on Thursday morning and had an even better trip. Most people had at least 10 fish with them measuring up to 3-4lbs. We are running everyday now for sea bass. You can get on the morning trip at 8am-12pm or the afternoon trip 1pm-5pm. If you would like a full day trip we are also running them from 7am-3pm, just give us a call and make a reservation today. 5/15/2011 The Judy V. and the Capt. Bob II got out on Saturday May 14th and headed up to the Delaware Bay to do some striper and drum fishing. The bachelor party for Skip had a great time bringing back 5 of 7 drum fish. They didn't hit the right tide to hook up on the striper so none were caught that day. The wind was ESE at 10-15 with a nice swell to make things fun, but all seemed to be satisfied with their take. We will be running full day trips from 7am-3pm fishing for striper and/or drum up in the Delaware Bay until sea bass season opens on May 22nd. We are filling up for opening day of sea bass fishing, so give us a call to make your reservation. 302-226-2214. 5/8/2011 The Judy V. continues to run full day fishing trips out for tautog until May 11th. Call to make a reservation. Sea bass season opens May 22nd, call to make reservations to go fishing. 302-226-2214. 04/20/2011 The Judy V. came in yesterday around 3pm and everyone had tautog. Pictures posted in the gallery. Going everyday, give us a call for more information. 877-613-6022. 04/19/2011 Hope everyone had a good winter and is ready for a great fishing season. The Judy V. is running out for tautog on a full day schedule now. 7am-3pm the cost is $75 per person ($7 rod rental if needed). Reservations are required so give us a call on our toll free number 877-613-6022. Our half-day schedule looks to be getting started May 22nd.

Hope to hear from you soon!
8/26/2010 Hello everyone, Don't give up on fishing yet, we still have some good days left before sea bass and flounder close. (That will be Oct 12th.) We are still running our half-day trips when the weather allows. And we are also running full day trips on the Capt. Bob II. The last the half-day trip got out was on Saturday and boy was it rough. The conditions would not allow for good fishing. The drift was too fast and when we anchored up it swung us around all over. Not to mention the rockin' and rollin'. But trips before that have been fairly good. We have seen quit a few keeper size and larger sea bass coming back to the dock. The full day trip got out last Tuesday and did really well. Everyone went home with at least 10 sea bass. There were 6-7 flounder brought aboard and some blue fish too. The weather has not really been cooperating too well lately, but we are hoping to get out tomorrow. We will be fishing for sea bass, flounder and maybe give tautog a try, since it is back in season tomorrow. Oct 11th will be the last day for our half-day trips, this is because sea bass and flounder will close. We will then focus more on full day trips on the week-ends. This will be for tautog and stripe bass (rockfish). So give us a call on our toll free number at 877-613-6022 to find out more information. Keep Casting, Deanna (Mrs. Bert) 08/26/2010 Fishing has been very good the past two weeks with more keeper sea bass and flounder brought in everyday. Over the last couple of days the wind blew a little too much to get out, but yesterday afternoon we finally got out and we fished closer inshore. The trip produced a nice catch of trigger fish and some blues. The half-day trip is still running every day 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm. The full day is running with a maximum of 25 people, so call and make your reservations today. 302-226-2214 or toll free 877-613-6022.
08/14/2010 Hello everyone, "The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated." I know I have been slacking on my reporting skills. I do apologize. So let's waste no time.... The fishing on the Judy V's half-day trips as well as the Capt Bob II's full day trips have improved greatly. There have been more keeper bass and flounder coming on board than in past weeks. With that said, there will always be days that are better than others. But, Nathan Walters, of Saltillo, PA and Ernie and Nicholas Willson, of Boyertown, PA, went fishing on the head boat Judy V with Capt. Ed Wheedleton and came back with a 4.7lb flounder. Thomas Palm, of Baltimore, MD, went fishing on the full day trip on the Capt. Bob II with Capt. Roger Meekins. He came back with this 4.6lb black sea bass and other keeper size bass as well. And the Groff's of Cecil County Maryland that go fishing regularly came back with a good catch of black bass. This was also from the full day trip on the Capt. Bob II. The Captain, Roger Meekins also brought back a 5.3lb Black sea bass, his largest bass ever. Way to go Crusty. We run every day so give us a call and make a reservation today.
06/27/2010 Hello everyone and thanks for stopping by our website to catch up on the latest fishing report for the Judy V and the Capt. Bob II. The head boat Judy V. has been seeing more keeper sea bass come on board. The fishing on the wrecks has been slow so we have decided to run a little further off to find the fish that are biting and are of keeper size. Since doing this we are seeing more fish come back to the docks. The ride may be a bit longer, but we would rather see you catch and keep fish than just go for a boat ride and come back with nothing. We are running two half-day trips daily. 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm. These trips are $40 per person and $5 more for a rod rental. $30 for children 12 and under and they receive free rod rental. The full day trip on the Capt Bob II had a great catch on Saturday with many coming back to the dock with at least 8-10 keeper sea bass and a flounder or two. There have also been some nice sized tautog caught and released, but beginning July 1st we will again be able to keep them. The season will once again open and you will be able to keep those tasty critters again. The full day trips runs on a required reservation list and is limited to 25 people. This allows for ample space for everyone on board. The full day is $75 per person with a $7 rod rental. Bait is provided for all trips. And remember, beginning July 1st, we will be able to fish for and keep tautog again. So if you are thinking about making your vacation plans, don't forget to put fishing at the top of the list. Give us a call at 302-226-2214 or Toll Free at 877-613-6022 to make a reservation today. Hope to hear from you soon!!! Keep Casting, Deanna (Mrs. Bert) June 14, 2010 The Judy V. is now operating on its daily 1/2 day fishing schedule. We are running two trips a day; from 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm. We are fishing for black sea bass. Th first few trips were slow to start with very few bites and even fewer keeper fish on board. But, things have picked up within the past week with customers having more bites and bringing home some keeper black bass and a flounder every now and again. We are also running a full day trip, which is by reservation only. Please call 302-226-2214 to make a reservation for your day of fishing with us. *Just a note* We will be running our annual fireworks cruise on Sunday July 4th. We will cruise to Bethany Beach to watch the fireworks. The tickets are on sale now for $25 for adults and $15 for children 12 and under. We recommend that you make your purchase for this trip in advance to secure spot on the boat. We will begin boarding at 7:30pm and leave at 8pm sharp. The fireworks begin just after dusk. Call 302-226-2214 to purchase your tickets today. Don't forget, the Capt Bob II or Judy V. can be booked for work, church or civic organization. Call for details. Happy Fishing and Keep Casting Deanna April 27, 2010 We are still fishing full day trips on the week-end and going for tog. We will be fishing full days until May 11th and then we will pull the boat for some minor repairs and maintenance and a Coast Guard inspection. We will be back up and running half-day trips beginning May 22nd. This is due in part to the current sea bass closure that is in effect. Our full day trips cost $75 per person for adults and $55 for children 12 and under. If you need to rent a rod add $7. Please call 302-226-2214 or our new toll free number at 1-877-613-6022 to make a reservation today. You do not need to pre-pay for your ticket, just leave your name and the number in your party for your reservation.
04/06/2010 The weather was beautiful this past week-end and the Judy V. got out fishing on Saturday. We went fishing on the in-shore wrecks and had some bites and some keepers. The seas were 2'-3' the biggest weighed in at around 5lbs. They also had a cod. Hoping to go again this week end but the week-end weather is still up in the air right now. If you are interested in fishing with us, call 302-226-2214 to make a reservation.
April 1, 2010 The Judy V. will be fishing this week-end Friday, Saturday and Sunday for tautog. We will be running full day trips that leave at 7am and return at 3pm.

The bait is provided and if you are interested in joining us call 302-226-2214 or 1-877-613-6022 to make a reservation.
November 8, 2009 The Judy V. went fishing on Saturday, Nov. 7th. It was a beautiful day and the seas were flat calm. Capt Eddie went out to the wrecks and had a great day catching tog. The bite was hot and heavy with a lot of misses. We were using green crabs and asian box crabs for bait. Everyone on the boat had fish to take home with them. Some had there limits but most went home with at least 2-6 fish. John Fontenella reported he had 8 keepers but when he got home he quickly called us up and told us he had caught his limit.One person even caught a nice size trigger fish. Check out the pictures from Saturday in our photo gallery. We will be running full day trips every week-end (weather permitting) Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The cost is $75 per person and $7 more if you need to rent a rod. The boat leaves a 7am and returns by 3pm. Reservations are required so please call 302-226-2214 or our new Toll Free Number 1-877-613-6022. November 6, 2009

We are fishing everyday that the weather will allow. It has either been raining or blowing or both. The black sea bass fishing has been very good if you are into catch and release. We are catching a lot of 12" - 12 1/4" fish but unfortunately they have to go back because of the size change this year. But everyday we seem to find a couple more keepers. We are still catching a tautog every once in a while, but they are closed so they have to go back in the water too. Can't wait for July 1st when they open back up. We are running our daily 1/2 day trips at 8am-12pm and again at 1pm-5pm. We do recommend reservations by calling 302-226-2214. We are also running a full day boat. This trip is by reservation only, so please call and make your reservation today. Don't forget we are running our annual fire works cruise on the Fourth of July again. Tickets are going fast so call now and get yours now. The prices are $25 for adult and $15 for children 12 & under.
Have a great day! And hope to see you fishing soon. May 29, 2009 Fishing over the Memorial Day Week-end was slow to say the least with new moons, hard running tides and nasty boating weather it was hard to catch. Friday started out with a lot of bites and catching, but not a lot of keeping. Saturday turned worse with less catching and keeping than the day before because as the day went on the weather deteriorated. With a 3'-4' chop it was hard to stay on bottom and many people didn't feel too good. Capt. Eddie went to several different spots to try hooking up on some new snags but this didn't help any. Sunday the winds continued to be an issue, blowing anywhere from 15-20 mph out of the SW. Again fishing was less that desirable. Monday the winds settled down some and made it more of a pleasurable day. The fish also started to bite more. With the warmer temps the water continues to climb in temperature. Today a charter boat, Karen Sue, went out and came back with a nice catch of black sea bass. Some of the fish were very nice in size. They measured anywhere from 13"-15" in length. With this promising news we hope to get in on the action as well this week-end. The Judy V. is running everyday (weather permitting) for sea bass with 2 half day trips. 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm. We are also offering a daily full day trip at 7am-3pm. If you are interested in either of these trips please call 302-226-2214 to make a reservation.
Mrs. Capt. Bert May 17, 2009
The Judy V is now sailing daily with two 1/2 day trips. 8am-12pm and again at 1pm-5pm. The cost is $40 per person with a $5 rod rental. We are also running a daily full day trip at 7am-3pm. The cost is $75 per person.(this trip is by reservation only and limited to 25 people) We do recommend reservations for all of our trips so if you are interested in going fishing call us at 302-226-2214. Here is the report for the past two week-ends.... The sea bass are beginning to show up on the inshore wrecks now with the weather and the water temperature is warming up. Last week-end we had a good catch of sea bass and tautog. On May 12th some new fishing regulations went into effect. The changes are: flounder-18.5" (down from 19.5"), you are still allowed 4 per person. Sea bass-12.5" (up from 12") still at 25 per person. Tautog fishing is closed until July 1st. This week-end the fishing was a bit slower on the Judy V. as far as keepers go. On the Saturday morning trip there were a lot of sea bass caught, but not a lot kept. On the afternoon trip the wind picked up and played a factor in staying on top of the wrecks. They got into a lot of dog sharks and skates with some throw back sea bass in the mix. The weather continued to worsen through the afternoon making it harder to fish. The Capt. Bob II had an afternoon charter with a group of Boy Scouts, it was a little on the rough side with lots of them getting wet from the splash of waves on the ride out and in. There was a report of a nice swell as well as the wind starting to blow. Capt. Bert said it was slow going but there still was an occasional pick. they brought in some tautog (which had to go back, one weighed about 6lbs) Even though it was a slow bite the group had a fun time riding the waves. With Memorial Day coming up this week-end remember to thank our Veterans and Service Men and Women for their bravery in protecting our country. Maybe even take them fishing. Fingers crossed, the weather looks to be good for this week-end so call 302-226-2214 and make a reservation for either the 1/2 day trip or the full day trip. 'Til next time, Mrs. Bert April 24, 2009 We finally had good weather last week-end and got the boat out on Saturday. We started the day out fishing on the wrecks using green crabs and caught some keepers. Dillan Bromwell, of Newark, DE, caught a 8.6lb tog and John Mack of Aberdeen, MD caught a 6.7lb tog. As the day went on we then moved onto the Coral Beds and then we started catching some keeper sea bass and landed a keeper flounder. Bart Rankin, of Annapolis, MD, caught a 6.4lb tog and a 3.6lb flounder. With great weather forecasted with temps in the 70's and 80's it is shaping up for a beautiful week-end. Saturday maybe a bit on the windy side, but Sunday looks like a good day to get on the water and go fishing. Full day fishing from 7am-3pm. Cost $75 per person, call 302-226-2214 or email us at info@fishjudyv.com to make a reservation or for further inquiry. April 13, 2009 HAPPY EASTER!!!! We have finally said good-bye to winter and hello to spring, but somehow it doesn't feel like it. The wind has not stopped blowing since last year and the cold temperatures just won't give up its grip. Just when it feels like it is going to warm up, the cold shows its ugly head again and we are all back in our winter coats. The whole month of March was pretty much a blow out. If it wasn't the wind keeping us in it was the cold water temps keeping the fish from biting. Although we did have a couple of days when we did get out. One of those days were the die hard fisherman who just wanted to get out of the house due to the dreaded "CABIN FEVER". And the other was a decent day just before the tog limits dropped from 10 tog at 14" down to 3 tog at 15" per person. We are still running on week-ends; Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They are full day trips from 7am-3pm and the cost is $70 per person. If you are interested in going through the week, we will gladly take your name and the number in your party and try to see if we can steer more people to that date. We will be fishing for black sea bass, tautog and mackeral (if there are any to be found.) So call 302-226-2214 to make your reservations today. January 16, 2009 Happy New Year to everyone!!!!
The Judy V. did get out the week-end Jan 3rd & 4th. Saturday they averaged 3-4 fish per person, most fish were 2-4lbs. The biggest one weighed in at 7lbs. The tog bite continued on Sunday with 2-3 fish per person but these fish were on the bigger side with most weighing between 3-5lbs. The largest of the day was 6.8lbs. We haven't been fishing since that week-end. The wind kept us in last week-end and the cold has kept us in this week-end. Sunday could be a go, but not sure at this point in time. But we do hope that the weather will be more cooperative next week-end. We will continue to keep the week-end schedule and try to get out when we can. If you are interested in going please give us a call at 302-226-2214. Friday, Saturday & Sunday 7am-3pm $75 per person $7 rod rental (if necessary) www.fishjudyv.com 302-226-2214 December 27, 2008 The head boat Judy V. out of Indian River Marina, DE went out on Saturday (12/27) tog fishing. They started the day about 5 miles from the beach and wound up the day about 8 miles off the beach. They had a steady pick all day with a lot of missed fish, some throw backs. They averaged between 2-4 keepers per person. All were weighing about 4lbs. The pool fish winner weighed in 4.8lbs. They were using green crabs and catching the best using a flourocarbon tog rig with a size 2/0 Gamakatsu octopus hook.
Mr. Phi, from Alexandria, Va, caught 4.7lb tog but got beat by 1 tenth of a pound by Rich Musselman of Bowmantown, Pa. He wound up with a 4.8lber. We will be fishing again on this coming week-end (weather permitting) Friday, Saturday and Sunday. 7am-3pm The cost is $75 per person, bait is included, $7 rod rental is available Call 302-226-2214 to make a reservation, walk-ons are welcome. December 15, 2008 The Judy V. was held back on Friday and Saturday from fishing, due to weather conditions, but we were able to get out on Sunday the 14th. The fishing was slow in the morning but picked up in the afternoon when they dropped anchor on their fourth spot. Even though they were not catching early, they were having a lot of bites; they were just unable to hook up their fish. Judy V ended up on average about 3-4 fish per person. The high hook of the day was eight fish. We have noticed throughout our trips that the braided line has had better results than the mono filament. The Judy V sails on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. $75.00 per person, $7.00 rod rental. $5.00 off for paying in advance. Please call for reservation: (302) 226-2214 Novermber 14, 2008 Judy V is now fishing on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Full day trips only. 7am -3pm $75 per person. Pre-pay and receive a $5 DISCOUNT. We will primarily be fishing for seabass and tautog. Finally had some decent weather last week-end and got out on Saturday and Sunday, we mostly fished for tog. Tide played a factor in catching with the boat doing a lot of swinging over the wreck. All thing considered everyone averaged 1-4 fish per person. High hook had 8. Fishing conditions were almost identical on Sunday, the high hook had 7 keeper tog. The largest weighed in at 7lbs. Again, most people had between 1-4 keepers. Hoping weather will cooperate for this week-end. If you are interested in going, call for reservations or to book a charter. 302-226-2214 October 18, 2008 Well I have to apologize for not keeping this report updated. The fishing was good if all you wanted to do was catch not keep. The sea bass were biting hard and plentiful all summer long, but they were all short. The flounder were few and far between out in the ocean. The croaker did finally show up in September but things quickly changed. So now we are into the month of October and it is hit and miss still. One day will be good for the croaker, then the next it will be sea bass. Can't seem to go to the same spot and catch the same fish. But I have to say that the last couple of days that we got out the sea trout were showing up in some nice numbers. We will continue to run our half day trips, daily, until October 24th. However we will only be running a morning trip from 8am-12pm and on Saturday we will run the morning and an afternoon trip, depending upon people for the second trip. On October 24th we will switch gears and start running full day for tog and sea bass.We will only be running on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The cost will be $75 per person with a $7 rod rental if necessary. 7am-3pm. Children 12 and under are $50 with free rod rental. This will include all bait. Hope to hear from you soon as reservation are recommended. Call 302-226-2214. June 13, 2008 ATTENTION EVERYONE, THE JUDY V. IS UP AND RUNNING!!!! She maybe a little harder to find. She doesn't seem to have that black cloud following her anymore. After a long winter and spring, the Judy V. is now sailing daily. The new motors make getting out to the fishing grounds faster, giving you more fishing time. We are sailing 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm. $40 per person for adult, $5 more if you need a fishing rod. Children 12 and under are $30 with free rod rental. They are catching sea bass now with more keeper fish showing up every day. The Capt. Bob II will still be used as our charter/overflow boat. Capt. Kristin took a charter out on Thursday and had a great day of fishing for sea bass out there. If you are interested in fishing on the Judy V. or the Capt. Bob II give us a call to make your reservations today. The 4th of July Fireworks Cruise will be on July 4th only this year. The cost will be $25 for adults and $20 for children 12 and under. Call now and reserve your tickets as seating is limited. Call 302-226-2214 for further information. June 1, 2008 Just want to apologize to everyone for not updating more regularly, things just get so hectic that it gets pushed to the bottom of the to-do list. GOOD NEWS!!!!! The Judy V. is in the water and back home at the River. Everything went well for her maiden voyage on the motors. Bert and Lee have worked their butts off getting her ready. Who could of thought that what should have been a 3 month job would take almost 6 months. Although we still have about 2 weeks worth of cosmetic work left, things are looking good now. Well onto fishing.....we have begun running our 1/2 day fishing trips now. Our schedule is 8am-12pm and 1pm-5pm the cost is $40 per person, $5 for rod rental, children 12 and under $30 with free rod rental. We will be running on the Capt. Bob II until the Judy V. gets completed. The fishing has been picking up for the sea bass, at first the fishing was somewhat slow with more throw backs being caught than keepers. But now with the weather warming up the keepers are showing up more. Tautog are still being caught out there, what a shame we have to throw them back due to the closure. There have been some small flounder showing up on the head boat, that is an encouraging sign. As always we recommend reservations to ensure that your tickets will be held for your day of fishing. Please call 302-226-2214 to make your reservations or for any questions. Large group charters are still available.
4/11/08 Is the weather ever going to cooperate? We have been trying to get out for the past 3 week ends but the weather just plain STINKS!!! If it hasn't been the rain it has been the wind. But we are not giving up, we are still planning on fishing on full day trips on the week-ends until May 10th. Then we will return to our 1/2 day fishing schedule. The full day trips leave at 7am and return at 3pm, the cost is $70 per person. Reservations are requested due to the constantly changing weather conditions. The Judy V is STILL at the boat yard getting work. We are hoping to have here back in the water by the end of the month. Give us a call if you would like to make a reservation for the full day trip on the Capt Bob II. 302-226-2214
3/26/08 We are gearing up for another great year of fishing on the Judy V. and the Capt. Bob II. Right now the Capt. Bob II is running full days on Friday, Saturday and Sundays. We sail at 7am until 3pm for $70 per person. Our first trip was on 3/22 for tautog, needless to say that since the wind blew all last week, and that Saturday, the fishing was less than desirable. They ended up with 2 keeper tautog and someone kept 2 sharks. Let's hope for better weather this week-end. Just an update on the Judy V. Bert has now finished setting the motors in place and now needs to start hooking everything back up. Then after that we will put in the new fuel tank. Then after the final inspection from the Coast Guard, we should be good to go. We are looking at the end of April to finally have her back in the water. If you are interested in going fishing give us a call to make a reservation at 302-226-2214. I will be making updates to the website shortly, keep checking back for new information! 1/9/08
