What an unexpected situation we have all been thrown into since our last post.  A HUGE Thank you to all of our First Responders, Medical Personnel, essential business employees, grocery staff, Military and all the rest out there working to keep things rolling.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone in this different reality we are all working with and we look so forward to the light at the end of the tunnel – it is getting closer and closer every day!!

 

What about April fishing??  It has been phenomenal!!  TUNA has been the main fare with some mahi mahi mixed in and even a blue marlin already!!  Charters and Commercial Fishing have been limited on the Outer Banks but both should be picking up the pace rapidly as our visitors are able to come back to see us – the COBIA are getting close so we are all ready to get back to the water!!  Some sightings are starting towards Hatteras which means they are on tract to get to us early to mid-May… just in time to Spring haul the Fistful, Wrap up Turkey season, and finish up farm projects!!  Anyone looking to get on the books for the summer please give us a call – our calendar is continuing to fill up and we will certainly accommodate anyone needing to change or cancel a trip if need be.  Don’t hesitate to call or email if anyone has any questions or needs any information.

 

Meanwhile… it’s Spring Turkey season and project time!!!  Enjoy this time with your family – it’ll be back to business as usual before we know it.  We can’t wait to see everyone and don’t forget to support your neighbors and local small businesses as best you can…  See everyone soon!

 

      

Spring Turkey

/in /by

Spring Turkey Season is here!!!  The Youth get to enjoy the first week and it is so nice to see kids out in the environment – no iPad, no phones, no videos… just mother nature and wildlife.  Quality time spent in the outdoors with family is invaluable and often short lived as our kids grow up incredibly fast.  We are so very thankful to be a part of it all.  An enormous CONGRATULATIONS to our Abbie!!  Weeks of target practice and mounting excitement all paid off.  No blind or cover…. she has never sat this still in all her 6 years.  Dad was shaking like a leaf with excitement and Abigail simply whispered “I got this”… 11 1/2 inch beard, 1 1/4 inch spurs, 20.3 lbs; one shot… a trophy for anyone and extraordinarily special for our young lady… Nice work kiddo 🙂

Well after two years Martin Mcnally returns back down east to hunt with us… He picked up right were he left off scoring first thing this morning with a great strutter..What a great hunt.  This one was going to be ten yards from us when he got the smack down.  What a great season.  Always sad to see turkey season go away.  It’s what spring is all about..We ended on a high note for sure.  We are happy to say we had a one hundred percent success rate for all of our hunters this year.. This is Martin closing out our year.. LETS GO FISHING! !!

Now we KNOW it’s spring!!!  The wonderful weather that our area is famous for is finally here, our true Carolina blue skies are an every day norm… and the turkeys are strutting and dancing and putting on their show!  This year we have several days of special youth spring turkey hunts then the open season starts on Saturday.  The turkeys are out in strong numbers and we are looking forward to ringing in spring time with all our hunters!!  We were fortunate enough to crank up this year’s youth season with our dear friend Daniel… a fantastic young man and always a joy to spend time with…. not to mention a great marksman!  UNBELIEVABLE GOBBLER!!!  Congratulations!!!!

Spring Turkey comes to a close…
