We are rolling through June and variety is the theme so far! Tuna, Dolphin (Mahi), and Billfish (Blues and Whites so far!) with the occasional Wahoo thrown in!! A huge thank you to all our awesome Fistful anglers… Way to kick off the summer!! July is filling but we have some days still open here and there – get on the books if you want to get out there and Let’s go Fishing!!!
Summer fishing continues to be HOT!! A few weather days and the boys are back at it again… Great groups and great fishing are the best combination!!! Our Boat Builder’s Tournament Team had to change plans at the last minute which has suddenly opened us up several days this week – Give us a call if anyone is interested… an awesome opportunity to slide in on some great fishing!!!
Summer rolls on with AWESOME GROUPS and AWESOME FISHING!!! A huge thank you to all our groups the last couple of weeks… you guys and gals are always tons of fun!! Fishing has been off the hook with DOLPHIN (MAHI MAHI), TUNA, MARLIN, TILES, and more!! Don’t miss out and get on the books – we still have some open days in August but they are going fast! Let’s go fishing!!!
Summer rolls on and the fishing continues to be awesome! Mostly Offshore this past week – Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Tiles, and Billfish are on the main menu with a few Tuna, some Amberjack, Wahoo and one Giant Pink Flamingo (what tha????!! Pretty work Jess!!) thrown in!! Nearshore trips are smacking the Ribbons plus Spanish and King Mackeral, Drum and an occasional Cobia! Don’t miss out… late summer/early fall is typically fantastic fishing and the scorching heat starts to settle down into super comfortable weather… September is BILLFISH season and the marlin are already starting to show!! Let’s go fishing!!
It’s official – The Outer Banks will be open to ALL visitors starting Saturday May 16th at 12:01 am! We are so excited to be opening our doors to all of our visitors… we hope everyone is safe and healthy and we are looking forward to getting back on the water. We have the 27th and 28th still available in May and more options in June for anyone looking to get out there in the near future. Offshore fishing continues to be fantastic and the Cobia are set to show any day now! Give us a call to save your day or if anyone has any questions during this crazy time… Most of our restaurants are open for take and/or delivery (and need all of our support now more than ever!) and our area is actively practicing social distancing plus sporting PPE in our groceries, pharmacies, and other retail establishments where distancing may be difficult (so bring your favorite fishing buff – it’s dual purpose now!). Please keep in mind that essential supplies (such as the ever elusive toilet paper and paper towels) are still limited and bringing as many of these items as you can with you is recommended. Thanks to all who have been patiently waiting… see you soon!! P.S… a few quick memories from last season… Let’s go fishing!!!
HOT weather and HOT fishing!! Offshore and Nearshore trips have both been fantastic… super fun groups and a ton of action! Looks like mother nature is going to give us a little break from the insane heat and get down right pleasant… the perfect time to get out there. We have a few spots open next week… give us a call before they fill up!
The season is in full swing! Variety is the name of the game for this year’s start… Cobia, Mahi, Drum, Spanish, Kings, Tiles, Blues, even a Puffer and already seeing some billfish (jumped off a sail yesterday)! The weather has been awesome and the fishing equally enjoyable… Thank you so much to everyone for getting this year rolling with so much fun!! Give us a call if you want to get out there… it’s time to go fishing!
As we are winding down our season the Nearshore action is ramping up! Our Spanish Mackeral are snapping and the bluefish have shown up… super fun trips and awesome eating fish! Our 4 and 6 hour trips are targeting these species and still watching for the Drum and Cobia… great for kids and a beautiful way to see the Outer Banks… We have a few spots still open the next 10 days then we change seasons… let’s go fishing!
