Rodanthe Pier- couple of puppy Drum

Saw some puppy Drum caught here off of ramp 48 and 49 today. Other than that, nothing to report.

Most big boats stayed tied to the dock today with the exception of Release. They came back with a bunch of Blackfin Tuna and a couple of Dolphin.

Sheepshead and Red Drum for the inshore boats that went out.

River2Sea Whopper Plopper 75

The soft, pliable tail rotates on the harness and creates muskie alluring rumbles at variety retrieve speeds and depths. The tail is designed to withstand the punishment rendered rocks, stumps and muskies.
