Hatteras Island Fishing Report

The high got up to 88. Winds have been light to gentle and switching directions a lot. Currently it’s 75 with SSE wind around 5mph. Tomorrow is looking nearly the same as today in both temps and winds. Right now the radar looks clear but scattered thunderstorms are possible so keep an eye on it.

Water temp was between 82.6 and 83.8 today.

In the surf there have been steady catches of Bluefish, Red Drum, and Spanish Mackerel. There’s also been some King Mackerel caught off the piers lately.

All we heard of from the sound today was Speckled Trout so if you catch something let us know!

Inshore boats were onto the Bluefish, Red Drum and Spanish Mackerel too.

Offshore boats going steady with Dolphin, Wahoo, and Blackfin Tuna. There was also a Blue Marlin release.
