Dr. Ken Neill, III , an IGFA representative and president of Peninsula Salt Water Sport Fisherman’s Association fishing club, explained his local Virginia Beach fishery the best. “We get the best of both worlds,” he says. Northern and mid-Atlantic gamefish species travel as far south as Virginia Beach waters in the cold months, while southern Atlantic species head north to Virginia Beach in the hot months. All year long, Virginia Beach anglers see an incredible mix of East Coast species. That variety allows anglers to target cobia, yellowfin tuna and golden tilefish in a single June weekend — or even one day — as captured in this short video.
