Last word from Oregon Inlet sounded like the puppy drum action had slowed down on the south side.  The fish weren’t really biting, mostly being snagged and they weren’t all packed in like before.  Water temp at Duck pier is posted at 43 degrees this morning.  A couple days ago Jennettes pier reported they could see the drum in the water but the fish were refusing to bite.

Down south the pups were still hitting grubs and shrimp from the point to ramp 49.  Checking the satellite imagery, the water temp today at the cape and south beaches is in the high 50s to low 60s.  Yesterday between ramps 49 and 55 some anglers were catching a few sea mullet.

A little cooler this week with a slight chance of snow on Wednesday.
