This week we're talking to Captain Jake Boltz with Fly N Fish Sportfishing for the offshore report targeting Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, Marlin, Mahi, Seabass, spadefish and flounder. Captain Jake talks about how they combine technology with their knowledge on the water to find the right water to target their desired species. He also talks about the tackle and strategies they use while offshore.

Captain Austin Hayne with FINAO Sportfishing brings us a report on the Striped Bass and Bluefish action that has been happening at night near the mouth of the rivers and inside the Chesapeake Bay, we talk about the key elements he looks for to put together a successful trip. He discusses lure type, rod/reel setup and line size that he uses while targeting stripers. 

The final report is also with Captain Austin Hayne, he talks about a recording early season Cobia and Red Drum bite that he experienced off the coast of Virginia Beach as those fish start their migration north into the Chesapeake Bay. He talks about what size and color jigs he likes to use, how to work that lure to get a bite and a few big fish stories from their adventure.

With the fishing season heating up, it is critical to take care of your boat's safety and maintenance items before heading out on that next fishing trip. Local expert Brad Herndon with Oyster Cove Boatworks, gives us his top 5 list for both safety and maintenance items that all boaters should take care of before starting their season.
