Hatteras Island Fishing Report

Mother nature was not happy today! Ugly, torrential downpours early on today with windy conditions made for a soggy end to the week. Our high temperature did make it to 77F however. Winds are out of the SW this evening at 24mph. Looks like some rain tomorrow afternoon, but not like today.

All hope was not lost for fishing today. The Rodanthe Pier had some nice Red Drum, puppy Drum, Sea Mullet and Bluefish caught very early on this morning.

Couple of puppy Drum at the point as well.

Hope the swell dies down a bit so the weekend won’t be a washout on the surf.
