Delaware is a fun place to fish. The weather is great and there are plenty of lakes and streams in Delaware. Plus Delaware Bay and Delaware also includes a shoreline on the Atlantic Ocean.
Fishing can be done in a stream, at a pier, on a sandy beach, or at a lake in a state park. These places, while pleasant, can not equal taking a charter fishing boat and going out into the bay to try your luck. Some claim that bass fishing is the best fishing that Delaware has to offer. You can find bass in ponds and streams but the bigger ones are sea bass found in Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Either way they will put up a reasonable fight.
Fly fishing in the northern part of Delaware is also fun. You can rent a boat or bring your own and go on the Delaware River to see what you can catch. Types of fish that you can cast a line for are carp, trout, and sunfish.
To fish in most of the waters in Delaware you will need a fishing license. Licenses can be obtained by contacting the Division of Fish and Wildlife, over the internet, or can also be acquired at most sporting good stores. The sporting goods stores can equip you with anything you may need from a fishing rod to a tackle box or a new lure. No matter what you’re fishing ability, if you like to fish, add fishing to your vacation in Delaware.
