On the Buxton beach some sea mullet,  a few puppy drum and pompano were caught. Over on the Frisco beach sea mullet and pompano were reported.  Hatteras beaches had a nice cobia caught, some bluefish, spot, sea mullet and pompano reported.

The inshore boats caught a few cobia and spanish mackerel along the beaches.  Some decent speckled trout fishing was reported today in the Pamlico Sound.

The offshore fleet in Hatteras had excellent blue marlin fishing today.  10 Blue marlins, 2 white marlin and 2 sailfish were released.

The dolphin fishing was really good.  A few nice yellowfin and blackfin tunas and wahoo were caught.  The bottom fishing boats had good red snapper and trigger fishing.

The 3rd day of The Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament  was filled with excitement.   10 blue marlin, 5 white marlin and 4 sailfish were caught.  The “Hatteras Fever II”  with Capt.
