Fishing Report June 3rd 2014

It’s a beautiful Tuesday for all on the sandbar.   Expect mostly sunny skies with a high of 82 degrees and winds light and variable.  Sunset today is at 8:14 PM and sunrise tomorrow is at 5:47 AM.
First tide is low at 6:01 AM with the high at 12;04 PM
Second tide is low at 6:07 PM followed with the high tomorrow at 12:07 AM

Calling around the piers today, I’m hearing the catch is mostly summer spots with some sea mullet, puppy drum, croaker and pinfish in the mix.  Water temp was 68-70 earlier and seems to be dropping as the day wears on.  That long swell chest to head high is still pounding the beach.  If I were surf fishing, I’d concentrate on the first 10 – 20 yds of water for sea mullet and puppy drum – they love that rough water.

Fishing Report Sat May 24th 2014

It’s finally Memorial Day weekend and the weather looks great.  Expect sunny skies, a high around 70 degrees and a 0% chance of rain, N – NE winds about 10 MPH.  Sunset is 8:07 PM and sunrise tomorrow is 5:54 AM.
First tide is a high at 4:21 AM with a low at 10:37 AM
Second tide is high at 4:59 PM with the low at 11:36 PM

Water temps in the surf have come up to 68 – 70 degrees on the northern beaches.  Offshore fleet has been returning to the docks with nice catches of mahi-mahi and some tuna in the boxes also.  The piers and beaches are reporting lots of bluefish and also some spot and sea mullet.

The water is great, get out and enjoy it.  TAKE A KID FISHING!!!

Fishing Report Tues May 20th

It’s Tuesday, expect sunny skies, winds W – NW 10 – 15 MPH and a 0% chance of rain.  Sunset is at 8:04 PM and sunrise tomorrow is 5:53 AM.
First tide is high at 12:08 AM with a low at 6:44 AM
Second tide is high at 12:46 PM with a low at 7:04 PM

Nice day, our weather is in a warming pattern again and the catching is getting better also.  The word from the beaches and piers is that the sea mullet, puffers, spot and blues are starting to cooperate for the anglers – even the occasional puppy drum is taking a hook now and then.  As the wind clocks around to the SW again, expect the large drum to show up at the point, maybe even a few cobia .
In the sounds I’m hearing of some pups and specs and flounder being hooked back in the Colington area – can’t keep the trout yet but it’s still a good sign that they’re there.  At the little bridge I heard of mostly small bottom fish, nothing to get real excited about.

Be a hero, TAKE A KID FISHING  …….  Coolbreeze out

 

Fishing Report May 16th 2014

Expect rain off and on most of today, high about 75 degrees with wind SW 15 – 20 MPH.  Sunset is at 8:03 PM and sunrise tomorrow is 5:54 AM.
First tide is low at 3:18 AM with the high at 9:09 AM
Second tide is low at 3:17 PM followed with the high at p:31 PM

We knew the nice weather wouldn’t last forever but it was a good run.  Winds will be from the northern quadrants the next few days so that means cooler temps.  Expect a cool down  on catching fish also.  Calling around to the piers today things have been slow.  Good drum bite last night down at Cape Hatteras, just not a lot of people fishing.
Take a break the next several days – it’ll get better again.

Coolbreeze out …..

Fishing Report Monday May 12th 2014

Nice day out there, mostly sunny, SE winds 5 – 15 MPH, high of 82 degrees, 0% chance of rain, the ocean is calm.  Sunset at 7:58 PM with sunrise tomorrow at 6:00 PM.
First tide is a low at 12:15 AM with a high at 6:04 AM
Second tide is low at 12:13 PM with a high at 6:31 PM

Catching has been very productive the last couple days.  Last night at Cape Hatteras, Red Drum Tackle reports 70 – 80 big drum were caught and released.  Most were hooked on bait, some on metal.  Satellite imagery shows the water temps in the surf on the northern beaches are getting much warmer – Duck Pier shows it at 63 degrees.  There are schools of nice puppy drum working their way north along the beaches.  lots of blues are being caught from the surf and the piers.  If this weather holds, look for some Spanish mackerel to start showing up.
This weather pattern is expected to hold the next couple days.  If you don’t put a line in the water,  you won’t catch anything!
