A beautiful spring morning turned into a pretty spring day. This morning saw Hatteras Blue heading out to the fishing grounds. They got onto the Bluefin Tuna. They released several big fish and were able to boat a keeper, making for some very happy anglers. Release also got onto the Bluefins and released all of their giants. Unfortunately, they couldn't find a keeper.

Another foggy morning turned into a beautiful day at the dock but remained misty for the Offshore boats. Bite Me and Release both had some luck with Bluefin Tuna. After traveling north to find them, Bite Me boated a keeper and pulled off a couple of Blue Marlin. Release released several giants but wasn't able to find a keeper.

It was a pretty day today and Hatteras Blue took advantage of it. They released some big Bluefin Tuna and boated a keeper size Tuna. They also had Albacore and a surpise Wahoo. Tuna fishing is where it's at. Don't miss out and give a captain a call to get your's.

Not much happening around Hatteras these days, so when we get a chance to show off some our recent catches we want take advantage of it. Hatteras Blue and Release have been doing a little fishing the last few days. The Bluefin Tuna are making a showing as well as Blackfin Tuna and King Mackerel. Captain's phone numbers can be found by "clicking here for more info" under their boat name if you want to get in on some of these action. Please note that not ALL boats are avialble this time of year so it's best to call the Captain. We should be back in the office at the end of the month, until then, stay safe!
