Fishing Report Oct 21 2013

It’s Monday Oct 21st and it’s looking to be a beautiful fall day on the sandbar.  Water temp at the Field Research Facility in Duck is posted at 66 degrees.  The winds are off the ocean NE shifting to E at 10 mph.  Skies are mostly clear, high 70, 0% chance of rain today, showers possible after midnight.  Sunset 6:21 pm, sunrise tomorrow at 7:14 am.
First tide is low at 3:07 am and high at 9:20 am
Second tide is low at 4:oo pm with a high at 9:41 pm

Checking with the piers this morning they report the ocean is fairly clean and catches include nice spot, puppy drum, croaker and some small bluefish – much the same on the beaches.  Fresh bait is a problem around here lately.  If you’re catching small bottom fish, well, they’re the freshest thing in your bucket, problem solved.

Sean at Fishing Unlimited next to the little bridge told us the catch included speckled trout and puppy drum this morning.   Yesterday a fellow from Elizabeth City landed a 38 inch striper out there.  That must have got everyone else all excited for awhile – I’ll bet the cell phones were busy.

Boats didn’t  go out yesterday but today is a different day.

Great day to TAKE A KID FISHING!!!   Coolbreeze out

Checking around this morning anglers seemed a little slow getting out of the rack.  Must have had too much fun at the Outer Banks Seafood Festival in Nags Head.  Eventually some fishermen showed up to hook some spot, sea mullet, croaker, puppy drum and small bluefish.  Duck Research Pier posted the water temp at the end of the pier at a nipply 66 degrees.

Been hearing good fishing on hatteras island at the jetties, cape point and hatteras inlet.  Since the shutdown has been lifted, access is much easier to our national seashore.  Same goes for the beaches at Oregon inlet’

Be a hero, TAKE A KID FISHING!!!  Coolbreeze out
