tuesdays Fishing Report
OK, everyone is waiting for someone else to catch a fish.
Get your waders on and get some stinky on your hands!

I fished on the north side of the Point on Sunday and it was great to be out there. Almost 60 degree water temperature was reported on the south end of Okracoke Sunday afternoon. I had to work today, fishing again this weekend!
Chin up, the warm water will get here!

Fishing report by Dan
Another day of missed opportunity. Birds are working hard again up at Pea Island inside of casting range. Water temp 54 down by Ocracoke south end and Southwest winds for the next three days. All we need is some fishermen around to catch something. The weather should be warm enouth for speedos soon….

Thursdays Fishing Report
Holy warm weather!!!!
I’ve been seeing boils in the canal behind the house and Bobby wanted to fish. So I threw an orange jig head with a weathered (sun-bleached) chartruse gulp. It was about 5 casts into it and WAMO! I had a nice fish on, taking some drag and all! I said "go get your dad, he’ll be excited for us!" I also mumbled something about needing a net too!

Well, about 10 seconds later, I hear thump, bump, roll, squeak! Bobby was bringing the wheel barrow and a piece of rope! Talk about back-up!! I lost the fish, the gulp tail was weathered when I started and when it came back, the tail portion was hanging on by just goo!

I had seen some cobb-sized Jumping Mullet too and my first mosquito !

I was glad to see activity! I am sitting here in my short-sleeved T-shirt!
I’m glad to have pretty weather, got up to 63 here today!
Have a great evening, tomorrow is suppose to be beautiful!

Friday fishing report by Dan
Well, finally a fishing report from yesterday. One fisherman landed 15 puppy drum down by the cable crossing in the sound at Hatteras inlet. Due to the winds, he was fishing there and luck out with the puppies. No reports of any fish caught today, but there are more people here this weekend.

Saturday fishing report by Dan
Great day with just a little wind to keep the bugs away.. I did have some reports of dog sharks and a few puppies from yesterday, but nothing for today. The water temp looks good, bait everywhere, so Where’s the fish? I need Grumpy and the duster to cheer me up.
