I’m hearing of a few flounder being caught. In the surf things are getting better. Rockfish and blackdrum have been caught this week. Today George Trout caught 2 blowfish and a kingfish 14 1/4″ on bloodworms.

Nice to see kings and blowfish adding more variety to our fishing selection. We have fresh ocean bunker, bloodworms, nightcrawlers, and live minnows.

George Trout's Surf Catch

I know everyone is dying to catch a Rockfish or Red Drum on the surf. Still all I’ve heard are Doggies and Skates at AI. Rockfish have been caught south of Assateague bridge and North of 90 bridge. Tog have been caught off the bulkhead and north jetty OC. Flounder season is getting closer. They have been hitting heavy ing VA. We got fresh ocean bunker in yesterday and should have more today, Live minnows, night crawlers and bloodworms.

Have a Happy Easter!!!!

Buck’s Place was established in 1979 by my grandparents Buck and Mary Brown.

My Grandfather was born in PA and moved to Ocean City with his family when he was eight years old. My Grandmother was born here in the Ocean City area (Cambelltown).

I was six years old when my grandparents bought the store and ever since I can remember I wanted the store to be mine. I spent most of my summers working at the store.

My Mom, Marcia Helms, Aunt Margo Barker, and Uncle Marc & Aunt Lisa Brown have worked with my grandparents through the years. My grandparents dog Freemont was the mascot of Buck’s for over ten years.

In 1997 my husband Chris Rogers and I leased the store and purchased it in 1998. On March 20, 2000 I lost my husband in a car accident. He loved fishing and hunting and was great at both. The last seven years have had a lot of ups and downs. I lost my path for awhile, but thanks to all my family especially my in-laws, Donald and Mabel Rogers, and friends who didn’t give up on me I know I am where I love to be.

This past week off the surf at AI seems to be Doggies and Skate. I heard of a Rockfish near the Rt 50 bridge, but I didn’t see anything, just hear say. At Shad Landing last weekend they caught some nice catfish and crappie have also been caught. We have fresh ocean bunker now , minnows, bloodworms and nightcrawlers. Hopefully the weather will keep getting better.
