Matthew… always so fun when you head east! Christie… It was fantastic to meet you and the kids! (I hope you got to relax atleast a little bit while you were here 🙂 ) Thank you guys so much for the trip and everything else! Can’t wait to see you all again!

Pirate’s Cove Tournament Week

Don’t forget this week is the 28th Annual Pirate’s Cove Billfish Tournament…this tournament attracts anglers from all over the world and produced the NC State Record Blue Marlin just 3 year’s ago weighing in at 1228.5 lbs!  This is always an extra exciting week at the Cove and you don’t have to be in the Tournament to join in the fun… The week kicks off with a boat decorating contest this Saturday at 6:00 pm as part of the 22nd Alice Kelly Memorial Ladies Tournament, then the girls head offshore to fish and support this great benefit cause on Sunday… The Billfish Tourney starts on Tuesday with boats fishing through Friday.  All the details can be found on the Pirate’s Cove website.  Come down and check out the stats, the standings, the catches, and all the fun when the boats get in each afternoon and give us a call if you just want to get out on the water to enjoy a great half, 3/4, or full day trip with your friends and family… we still have some openings during tournament week and would love to get you on the water!

Full day trip today with a great crowd! A handful of dolphin, a white one briefly in the spread, a blue one that hit a TLD 20 flatline bite – streaming line to end in a tail wrap and gone, and one nice barracuda… you guys are awesome!  Thank you so much Joe and crew!!

We had a 3/4 day today which allowed for a little more time to venture off the beach… the sea conditions were not ideal so we didn’t go too far but it did provide for a variety of fish… all the bluefish you wanted plus several nice spanish mackerel, one lone needle fish and even dolphin! (Nice to find these guys so close to the beach every once and a while!)  Warner, Ben, Duane, Jon, Tyler (aka P….ha!), and Clayton… it was fantastic to meet you all!  Great job today and we hope to see you again soon!
