Hatteras Island Fishing Report

Well another week is coming to an end here in Frisco and we all hope you enjoyed your stay. We closed out the week with another sunny August day. Storms rolled through this evening and cooled off the temps. We ended with a high temperature of 88F. Right now we have winds out of the North at 5mph. More rain in the forecast tomorrow as well.

Rough surf and high temps made for a slow day off of the surf.

Some Speckled Trout and puppy Drum caught in the sound earlier today.

Offshore boats out of Hatteras reported catches of Dolphin and some nice Wahoo.

Sea Creature and Good Times each released a Sailfish.

Speckled Trout and keeper Red Drum were caught inshore.
