One for the girls :)
This spring season is proving to be a productive one! Lots of beautiful birds out there doing their thing…what an incredible display to witness! We are so thankful to be able to spend time in the woods during this gorgeous time of year… and to watch mother nature at her finest is an amazing bonus…
Youth Day!
We had 3 fantastic young men today… It is such a joy to see our youngsters love the outdoors! One responsive gobbler was chased off by a 300 pound black bear who wandered into the hunt, obviously curious about the call and determined to check everybody out up close… a fantastic sight to see (although a little unnerving!) but not very conducive for a successful hunt 🙂 Lots of turkeys around and very active during this warm spring!! Congratulations to Daniel for getting this great bird… Jimmy and Bobby – no worries… the season has just begun! Thank you every body for a wonderful start to spring turkeys!!
Swan Hunting
Its no secret that NC has the best swan hunting wintering grounds in the lower 48..Five thousand permits per year are issued.It is quite beautiful to watch these graceful flyers decoy..We are even lucky enough to kill a few snow geese while we hunt them some days..Albemarle Outfitters still has 100% success on swan hunts every year and we still offer no kill no pay hunts for swan..Here are some pics from this years swan hunts.Notice the one picture with the swan flying in the background..
Gaffer dolphin fishing Hatteras
We have been in Hatteras since the 29th of April..Fishing has been great..Some days the conditions have not been as they would normally be but non the less we have had a great all around spring..We will be in Hatteras until June 3rd..We will then return to Pirates Cove for the summer where we will be nearshore fishing for spanish mackeral , bluefish , triggers , cobes , red drum , and amberjack…Please give us a call anytime to book a trip..If we are not available someone in our charter fleet will be and we will make arrangements.

Opening Day – Spring Turkey 2011
First bird of the season – triple bearded! Hopefully this is the start of a great trend! Lots of birds around and they are already wound up…Spring is in the air. A nice first turkey for Robert – pretty shot!
PRETTY
I like this image..Notice the hunter on the left of the photo and the STRUTTER between the trees coming to me..I am working the ole boy to him from about 10 yds back.This bird was in another field with two hens and I worked him into this smaller field threw a gap of trees that divided the two..Once he came into this smaller 3 acre field he strutted the entire way across and roared tripple gobbles over and over..He worked nicely into the 25 step range..This hunt took about 15 minutes to develop..
I snapped this image just before the shot on this true trophy strutter that scored 77.5 points..Inch and 3/4 spurs , 11 and a half inch beard and he tipped the scale at 24 pound..Mighty pretty..Classic example of how a run and gun hunt should go…
