Fishing Reports

The weather has been ferocious lately but Black Pearl was able to get out to do a little fishing with the family. Sheepshead was the fish of the day.

When the weather calms down give us a call and book a trip for a half-day Inshore trip or a full day on the Gulf Stream. The fish are out there waiting on you.

Inshore Fleet had a great day catching Red Drum, Sheep Head, and speckled trout.

A break in the breezy conditions provided excellent fishing for the big boats today. They slung a lot of big Blackfin Tuna over the gunnels, along with some big Wahoo. They also had some Amberjacks and Barracuda. The Inshore boats had a good day of fishing with Gray Trout, Bluefish and Red Drum in the morning. The afternoon had Red Drum and a lot of Sheepshead.

We would like to give a big congratulations to our own Jessie Anderson of the Carolina Girl. She won the OBX Best of the Beach for the best fishing charter again. Congratulations Jessie! It's well deserved.

Another day of the big boats staying tied to the docks. The Inshore boats had another day of good fishing in the Pamlico. They had Speckled Trout, Gray Trout, Bluefish and keeper Red Drum.

It looks like the boats will be tied up for most of the week as a storm may set its sights on the SE coast after it visits Florida. 

Another beautiful but breezy day so the Offshore boats stayed home. The Inshore boats had a sunny, warm day to fill coolers. Black Pearl and Tightline managed to bring in the meat. They had Red Drum, Bluefish, Gray Trout and Speckled Trout and released a few Gag Groupers.

We're keeping an eye on the weather as next week looks like it will be interesting with a storm that may head to the US if forecasts are correct.

It was another gorgeous summer-like day and one boat slipped out to the blue water this morning. With a SE breeze, it was a little choppy but Release got onto the fish and made for happy anglers.  Blackfin Tuna and some pretty, citation King Mackerel hit the dock. Inshore boats had good fishing today with Sheepshead, Gray Trout, Bluefish, Speckled Trout, and some Groupers.

It was a gorgeous Fall day today with no wind. One big boat headed out to the blue water and had a successful day of catching Blackfin Tuna. The Inshore boat that fished today had a catch of Gray Trout and Sheepshead.

The weather is looking beautiful and maybe the wind will lay low for a while. We hope everyone enjoys their Autumn and Happy Halloween to those who celebrate.

The NE wind has not let up yet and the ocean is still rough. The big boats stayed tied up but one Inshore boat tried their luck and fishing was scrappy. Black Pearl did manage to catch a couple of Trout in the Speckled and Gray variety along with some Bluefish and a Puppy Drum.

It's been a windy few days that have left the Offshore boats tied to the docks, but one Inshore boat trekked out into the Pamlico Sound and had a good day on the water. Tightline had a good catch of Red Drum with mostly keepers and some nice Bluefish. Red Drum are likely to bite on windy days and the Bluefish don't want to miss out on the attention.

Some of the Charter Boats went out today and the Anglers had a great time catching

Blackfin Tuna, some Wahoo, and Releasing SailFish.

Inshore Anglers had fun Catching Speckled Trout, Red Drum, and some Bluefish.

Just one boat headed to the Gulf Stream this morning. Fishing was a little slow with only a few Blackfin Tuna being caught.

Inshore fishing however, has been awesome, with all the Red Drum and Bluefish you wanted to catch.

It was a blow day for the big boats so they stayed tied to the docks. It was an excellent Red Drum day for the Inshore boats along with Bluefish. Red Drum like to bite on windy days and they make great fish tacos.

One of the big boats slipped through the inlet this morning and watched the sunrise on the blue water. They did some slinging over the gunnels with a few Dolphin and some Wahoo. They did a lot of slinging with Blackfin Tuna hitting the deck. The Inshore boats had an excellent day of catching Red Drum along with Bluefish and Gray Trout.
