7-1-11 Fishing Report

Here is your Outer Banks fishing report for Hatteras Island: 

The weather was fair today with sunny skies and light winds. The wind blew out of the east today at 5-10 mph. The temperatures were in the mid to high 80’s.

Beach fishing was decent today with reports of pompano, sea mullet, and flounder just as it has been for the last few weeks. Pompano have been hitting citation size. However, today we have also heard of spanish mackerel and bluefish on the north beach.

Inshore Charter guides reported a decent day. Good speckled trout fishing along with a few spanish mackerel.

Offshore , charters boats reported a nice catch with the beautiful weather. Hatteras Fever released 3 sailfish, the Reliance released 3 sailfish, and the Sea Creature released 1 sailfish, totalling up to be 7 sailfish out of Hatteras Harbor Marina today. There were also reports of scattered king mackerel, yellowfin tuna.  Dolphin fishing was good today.

We’re looking at a switch in the wind tonight. It is supposed to blow SE at 5-10 mph. Mostly sunny skies however, so it looks like another beautiful day for Hatteras Island.

All in all, today was another great day in paradise.
