We had a few days to get back to it between the tournament and the weather and these guys are all about dinner… Thank you so much!! It is always so fun to have you guys back!!! We’ve been working on prepping for the next season (moving on to feathers shortly…) during this nasty weather but should back on the water once it clears and will fish until September 19th… give us call if you want to get out there before its done!
The last 10 days have been wide open with the Tournament (What an awesome good time!!!! A HUGE thank you to our team – Glenn, Wes, Davis – you guys are fantastic and so much fun – way to go!!!) and our charters – great weather and great fishing!! A special congratulations to Connor on his first Sailfish (Go kiddo!!) and of course no pictures – but awesome work to Joe for the 6 1/2 hour fight with the Blue Marlin of a lifetime – estimates are over 800 pounds – she ate a 60 pound yellowfin tuna like it was a grape and pulled the boys almost 13 miles east before she decided she was done with us and snapped the line!! What an experience and wow what a tale!! Needless to say – The billfish are here – Blue Marlin, White Marlin, Sails oh my! We have openings but they are filling up… give us a call if you want to get out there before these amazing creatures move on for the winter! Our nearshore trips are happening as well – Spanish and bluefish and tons of bottom fish – lots of fun and yummy too! Let’s go fishing!!
As we move into August the fishing continues to be crazy good… tons of variety on our Nearshore Days and the Tuna have stuck around all summer for our Offshore trips!! (That NEVER happens!!! yay!). The billfish are starting to show as we move into August and their time to shine is coming fast! We are fishing until September 19th this year so give us a hollar if you want to get on the books… we have some spots left but they are filling. Thank you so much to all our groups and a special shout out to our youth anglers – you guys are the future!
I am not sure where to start… the last half of July has provided an amazing variety of crazy fun fishing with so many great groups!! We appreciate everyone so much and also appreciate the fantastic fishing that our area has to offer during these summer months… we are so thankful to be able to call the Outer Banks home. Our trips have predominately been Nearshore the last few weeks and the species all across the board – Kingfish, Triggers, Tiles, Spanish mackerel (we had 2 6 pound plus citation Spanish in 1 week!! check out the pic below…), Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Albecore, Amberjack, Cobia, Red Drum, and more. This time of year you never know what you will see out there and everyday can be different – so much fun!! August is booking up quickly so please give us a call if you want to go… Time to go fishing!!!
The last week has been full with half and 3/4 day trips – So much fun for everybody!! The Red Drum have shown up to provide tons of Catch and Release action, the Spanish and King Mackerel fishing has been awesome, the Amberjacks gave one of our regular crews a great workout (no more gym before fishing next time Keith!!) and we’ve even seen a few dolphin on the short trips! We got to take several fantastic youth anglers and had a blast with all our groups – thank you so much!! One quick peek at some green and yellow starting to come together for fall… the next season will be here before we know it but until then it’s time to get on the water and catch em up! Thanks again everybody!!
As we roll into mid June the fishing continues to be fantastic! A mixed bag of trips and fish this past week – from Half Day Nearshore to Full Day Offshore… and everything in between. Dolphin… Tuna… Mackerel… Blues… Tons of fun with awesome people!! Thanks everybody!! The last 2 weeks of June are filling fast… give us a shout if you want to go!!
As we roll into June our fishing continues to be fantastic… The Tuna are still here but wont be for long!! Don’t forget the Cobia and bottom fish, Mackerel and Bluefish… something different every day and so much fun. Gib, Dickie, Mike, Bobbie and Dean and the boys – Thank you all so much! We are so fortunate to have such great folks in our lives… you guys are awesome!
June is booking up – give us a call as soon as you know your dates so we can get your day saved… It’s time to fish!
From Cobia to Dolphin to Spanish Mackerel to Tilefish and more…. this week’s theme has been variety!! Our Cobia are the main target this time of year but who can resist chasing the rest?!?! 🙂 We have already had tons of great trips with awesome anglers – thank you so much to all our seasoned salts and to our new group too (Go Duke!) Great job everybody! Let’s go fishing!
Another wonderful waterfowl season is behind us – we already miss all of our crew from the past few months. Thank you so much to everyone for all the fun and amazing experiences… you make our season everything it should be and more! We are so fortunate… thank you. We are looking forward to next year and looking forward to fishing! Cobia season is scheduled to open May 1 this year and we are starting to book days already (Our first available day is May 8) – if you are thinking of saving a date (for Cobia or other trips) – especially for May and June – PLEASE let us know as soon as you can. Also – don’t forget Spring! Our small boat inland river trips will crank up in the next several weeks – Time to think FISHING!
The last 2 weeks have been full of great fishing and amazing charters! We have had a number of young anglers lately and what an impressive display of ability and enthusiasm from all of them – Every one of our kids jumped right into the fray and man… you can’t slow them down. Some are new to the game and some are already well on their way to becoming pros (B. Boys – you know who you are!!) – Awesome job everybody!! One of our goals is to create an experience for them (and their adults) that will turn into a life-long passion… it really gets your heart fired up to see that spark. Thank you so much to all our groups – Grown-Ups and Youngsters! *** A huge Thank You goes out to Capt. Jim on the HogWild and Capt. Troy on the Fowl Hooked for helping us juggle some of our groups during our unexpected quickie haul out and to all the gang down at Bluewater for pulling together and getting us up and running again – JP – we owe you… as usual!! Thank you so much…. I wish I could have seen you on that lift!! ***
Last but not least – we do have some days open for the next few weeks – the Fistful gets a break starting September 17th this year so let us know if you want to get out there before we turn to the ducks! The Billfish are starting to show… the dolphin are here on the Full Day trips… the Big Drum are hanging around… the Mackerel are snappin… the blues are snappin…the Jacks are snappin… the weather is beautiful… Let’s go Fishing!!
