2014 Delaware Fishing Guide

The 2014 Delaware Fishing Guide is being distributed to fishing license dealers throughout the state, including sporting goods, bait & tackle and hardware stores. The annual fishing guide is produced by the DNREC Division of Fish and Wildlife.

Anglers also can pick up a copy of the guide, along with their fishing license and trout stamp, at the Delaware Division of Fish and Wildlife’s main office in the Richardson & Robbins Building, 89 Kings Highway, Dover, and can check it out online too – by visiting 2014 Delaware Fishing Guide.

The full color guide contains information on Delaware’s fishing license requirements and the F.I.N. number program, as well as sections on tidal and freshwater sportfishing, fishing regulations, and general angling information. Other topics include highlighting new regulations and initiatives, trout stocking, fish consumption advisories, invasive species and Delaware’s artificial reef program.

New for this year are modifications to black sea bass and black drum regulations, and regulations that authorize bowfishing for invasive species in tidal waters. In addition, the Division of Fish and Wildlife now offers online tag reporting for largemouth bass taken in the Nanticoke River, Broad Creek and Broadkill River.

For more information on the 2014 Delaware Fishing Guide or on fishing in the First State, please call the Fisheries Section at 302-739-9914.

Seaworthy: A Sword Boat Captain Returns To The Sea

In 1997, at the age of 35, Linda Greenlaw captured the attention and interest of the public when Sebastian Junger, author of The Perfect Storm  proclaimed her to be "one of the best sword boat captains, period, on the East Coast." In the movie, Linda is portrayed aboard her boat, the Hannah Boden, by Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio trying to warn her sister vessel,  the Andrea Gail, of the fast approaching storm that would end up taking the lives of all six men aboard the Andrea Gail.

Since then she has written four non-fiction books about her life and travels as a commercial fisherman, two mystery novels, and an awesome cookbook that she co-authored with her mom, Martha Greenlaw. She also stars on the new Discovery Channel series, Swords and is currently out touring to promote her latest non-fiction book Seaworthy: A Sword Boat Captain Returns To The Sea.
