Day started out chilly with temps in the 50's and warmed up as the day went on. The sun didn't really make an appearance today. We had both Inshore and Offshore boats out fishing today. Inshore boats found Speckled Trout and Bluefish. Offshore found excellent Blackfin Tuna and some King Mackerel with citation sizes for both with a few Dolphin.

But yet another blow day! The weather is not cooperating as far as fishing is concerned. As this pattern moves off a cold front is scheduled to arrive bringing the first cold blast this Fall. Fishing may be possible sometime at the beginning of next week.

Another blow day kept everyone on shore today. The wind will be out of the north for the next few days keeping the water choppy inshore, with a big swell offshore. 

Mild temperatures and calmer seas allowed charters to get out and about today. Inshore anglers got on a good Red Drum bite with keepers and releases. What fun to catch them on light tackle! One boat fished near shore and returned with Bluefish and King Mackerel. Offshore charters finally got out to the Gulf Stream and experienced a good Blackfin Tuna bite along with scattered Wahoo. Looking for a diversion this fall, come to Hatteras and experience some world class fishing. Give us a call at 800-676-4939 for more information.

Despite temps in the 80's and bright beautiful day we did not have any anglers that wanted to come play with us. Boats stayed at the docks today.

Quiet and rainy in Hatteras, not what we were looking for on a Monday! No boats fished Inshore or Offshore. Hope to see weather improve over the next few days.

No news on fishing as no one went out today. Gusty winds and big seas kept the fleet in again. Looks like the weather might clear out for a couple of days at the beginning of the week. We'll have to wait and see!

Southerly winds brought in some very warm temperatures along with gusty winds and rain squalls. No boats fished offshore again today. It is forecast to turn southwest tonight bringing more rain along with gusts over 30 mph. We did have on charter fish inshore and they got on some keeper Speckled Trout. Check back to see if we get out tomorrow!

The weather has been gorgeous for the first day of November. Abundant sunshine and warm temperatures have made for perfect fishing weather. Unfortunately none of our offshore fleet had a charter booked for today. Inshore charters went out and caught lots of small Speckled Trout with a few keepers along the way. They also got on some Bluefish. Rain is forecast for the next couple of days along with warmer temps - still worth a try as the fish are already wet! Give us a call at 800-676-4939 and book the fishing adventure of your choice.

The wind was still out of the north today, however it did fall out enough for several offshore charters to get out to the Gulf Stream. Anglers received a treat with excellent catches of Wahoo and Blackfin Tuna, as well as a few Yellowfin Tuna. Triggerfish was the bottom fish of the day. Check out the citations! Inshore charters also got on the fish - Spanish Mackerel put on a good bite, along with Speckled Trout, Gray Trout, and Bluefish. A nor'easter is forecasted to blow in sometime over the weekend, but they are waiting to see what happens so that maybe they can get another fishing day before the rain and wind.
