Fantastic trip out of Rudee Inlet for Virginia black seabass today! Caught a 6 man limit of black sea bass in pretty short order this morning so we decided to stop and look around on the way in. We spent a couple hours sight fishing for Cobia and Red Drum just a mile or two off the shoreline of Virginia Beach. We were rewarded with 3 citation size drum and a nice cobia. Black seabass lasts one more week before a temporary closure and the near shore fishing is really heating up. Tuna reports are improving off North Carolina and we hope to get down there soon.

Today we went deep dropping at the Norfolk Canyon off Virginia Beach and scored a bunch of nice blueline tile fish, black seabass and rose fish. Caught a cod and a few hake too. Now we need a good tuna bite to happen within range. Hoping to get on some by the weekend.
