Hatteras Island Fishing Report

Calm before the storm today. Our high temperature was a humid 70F. Right now we have a Southwesterly wind at 28mph. Winds will be picking up overnight, then calming down a bit tomorrow afternoon before strong winds move in Monday am. GALE WATCH in effect from Monday 4am until Monday 5pm.

There were some Sea Mullet to be had on ramp 43 in Buxton today. Lots of smaller sharks along with a couple of monsters as well.

Real quiet on this end of the island.

Taffy, Captain, and Sadie Mae joined Bryan, Susie, and I on the front porch to wish you all a Happy New Year! We hope 2022 is filled with good health and happiness for you all!
