The weather was superb today in Norfolk, Virginia. Made me want to take
out my boat, manufactured by the Acme Boat Company.

Tides in Norfolk are running normal today. This weeks article highlights many of
this week's fishing issues, and also presents a reference table of tide times.
The Tides are High
As can be seen from the table below, the shores of Oceanview again present the
brightest spots for fishermen and sandcastle-builders alike.

Based on these tide tables, I believe you can see that this weekend stands to be
an excellent one for small- or large-scale fishing exhibitions.
Local Nooks
There are many local nooks that fishing fans may want to keep a special eye one.
Deer Creek: This area has proven to be a bass-lover's haven. Wilt Monthaven reports
that examples of bass over 30 inches long have been reeled-in by both the casual
and the professional angler.
Fox Run: A bit more difficult, logistically, to navigate. However, the reports
of Sturgeon in this area have put it on the fishing map for the first time
since 1996.
Pheasant Hollow: If you don't mind the crowds, this old favorite has come through
this year. More fish than you can shake a stick at. Or a rod at.
Happy fishing everybody!
