Hatteras Island Fishing Report

The high today was 84 with pretty gentle winds all day. Winds stayed between 3 and 10mph out of the NE/NNE for most of the day. Currently it’s blowing about 3.5mph out of the E. Overall, a beautiful day but remember when the UV index is at it’s peak (1pm) and stay hydrated and covered. In the shop we have multiple options for sunscreen and/or sun shirts and hats.

Red Drum, Sea Mullet, and Pompano were caught in the surf.

Speckled Trout and Red Drum were caught in the sound.

Inshore boats brought in Red Drum, Sheepshead, and Clams.

Offshore brought in Dolphin, Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, and bottomfish.
