Looks like we topped off at a high temperature of 75F this afternoon. Felt a bit warmer than that. Winds are out of the SW tonight at 15mph. Winds will remain out of the SW for most of tomorrow, picking up speed late in the afternoon. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY in effect from 2pm Tuesday until 2pm Wednesday.

There were a couple of puppy Drum caught down off of ramp 55 in Hatteras today. Other than that, it’s been a quiet day here in the shop.

Some of the offshore boats headed out today and brought back nice Dolphin, some Wahoo and lots of Blackfin Tuna.

Inshore boats did good with Sheepshead.

It’s been a busy day here at the shop. Lots of guests and tournament fishermen in and out throughout the day! We had a high temperature this afternoon of 75F. Sunny and warm again tomorrow as well.

Lots of Sea Mullet, small sharks and puppy Drum caught today from Buxton on down to Hatteras. Few decent size Black Drum caught as well.

Rodanthe Pier- Bluefish and puppy Drum caught this morning.

Big boats out of Hatteras had a beautiful day on the ocean and brought back Blackfin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, some Dolphin, Wahoo and a few Triggerfish.

Z-Man Texas Eye Jig heads

Melding a weedless Texas rig with a free-pivoting jighead and the prominent strike target of oversized 3D eyes, the Texas Eye Jighead gives anglers an unbeatable one-two punch. Designed to easily shed grass and prevent fouling or snagging on wood, rock, or shell, the flat sided head and upturned line tie eyelet creates a stable jighead with a spoon-like swimming quality when paired with either paddle-tail swimbaits or straight-tail baits. The Texas Eye Jighead features beefy construction that makes it ideal for a variety of applications that require a snag-resistant presentation in fresh- or saltwater, from pitching baits to laydowns for trophy largemouth to plying the Louisiana marsh for bull redfish.

Swinging hook design allows for maximum bait action and easy weedless rigging
Vivid, oversized 3D eyes present a prominent target for gamefish
Molded bait keeper prevents baits from sliding down hook shank
Built with heavy-duty 3/0 VMC wide gap hooks
Sized to pair perfectly with popular MinnowZ™, DieZel MinnowZ™, and PaddlerZ™ soft plastics for a variety of fresh- and saltwater gamefish
