Here is the Frisco Rod and Gun Outer Banks Fishing Report for Hatteras Island.

Beautiful day here on the island.! High of 82F with winds out of the East at 13mph.

Bluefish bite has been on today from the point to Hatteras. Finger Mullet being the bait of choice. Some slot size Red Drum caught north of the point. Drum bite has been good in the sound. We have plenty of fresh finger Mullet here at the shop so come stock up!!

Only a couple of boats went offshore today out of Hatteras. Those who did had a slow day with a few Dolphin, Yellowfin Tuna and Wahoo. Nearshore boats trolled for Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish

Inshore boats did well with Red Drum.

Here is the Frisco Rod and Gun Outer Banks Fishing Report for Hatteras Island.

Sunny skies today with a High of 79F, winds out of the NE at 22mph made it a little rough of a day for fishing off the beaches. Looks like we are going to see the winds die down a bit Wednesday afternoon into Thursday.

Red Drum reported in the sound from Buxton down to the inlet in Hatteras. Most have been caught on finger sized Mullet. Speckled Trout bite has slowed a bit but we still had reports of some taken sound side in Buxton.

No offshore report today. Winds kept the fleet at the dock.

The inshore boats that did go out today did well with Red Drum and lots of Bluefish.

Here is the Frisco Rod and Gun Outer Banks Fishing Report for Hatteras Island.

Mostly cloudy today with a high temp of 81F here in Frisco. Winds out of the North at 22mph made it difficult for fishing from the beach today. Looks to be the same forecast until Wednesday.

A very good Red Drum bite in the sound from Buxton to Hatteras today with some large Speckled Trout in the mix. Get out in the sound with some finger mullet and give it a go!

No offshore report as the weather kept them tied up to the docks.

The inshore boats are still doing great with limits of Red Drum and large Red Drum releases.
