An air and water tour of popular back bay fishing spots in Ocean City, Maryland.

Just came across your channel. I lived in OC in 1986-90. Biggest flounder I ever caught was right in the channel just east of the 50 bridge. All the head boats would clean their catch and dump the fish scraps off the pier. When I was there the whole area between the commercial harbor and the 50 bridge was beach and marsh. There was a area called shanty town. Now it’s been all developed into nice homes and a big marina.

Great video! I just started fishing OC last summer mainly looking for tropical strays. Only managed 1 trip but it was awesome, found juvenile short bigeye, little crevalle jacks, blennies, and little snowy and scamp grouper. Theres barely any spots that i can access that are productive for tropicals but its by far the closest place for me to find any of them

I've seen you fishing on the bay and the south jetty. Currently I'm using a 12 foot Pro Angler kayak with stern mount trolling motor. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

I saw you mention this video in the comments in another video of yours. This is a great summery of spots to fish. Getting psyched up and looking forward to getting down there again this summer.

Best informational video yet! Always learning new things from these!

Thank you for the information. I have been trying to zero in on the spots that I hear so much about but the charts for the back bay are hard to come by. I plan to put your rigs to good use in the next few weeks.

Great video Scott. Very informative. I'll be there the week of July 4th this year and will be renting a pontoon boat for our group to fish for flounder. I'll have to splurge and buy a new rod for flouder fishing.

Just a cool fact I was on one of the crews that built the new boardwalk oh about 3 years ago or something like that! It was one job I’ll always remember it was a lot of fun doing it

I grew up fishing the thorofare, route 50 bridge, and all the others. I laughed my a$s off when you said DONT EVER ANCHOR IN THE EAST CHANNEL 😂

Hello Scott
My name is Paul Smith. My middle name is Scott. I just subscribed to your channel. I'm 71 years old and have lived here since the mid 80's. Love your videos. Question... Where are some spots I can cast a net for mullet and minnows without getting in a boat? I used to use minnow tapes but want try your suggestion of casting for them.

Thanks for putting out this video. Neither my Jon boat or my pontoon are seaworthy vessels, so its nice to know the best spots in the back bays. What is the best time of year to catch trout and drum around OC?

[buckets_of_lead]

Any spots you would stay away from in a kayak? 12' Old town PDL. Current can be a killer if you don't know where and when to go.
