August 20, 2021
Well another week is coming to an end here in Frisco and we all hope you enjoyed your stay. We closed out the week with another sunny August day. Storms rolled through this evening and cooled off the temps. We ended with a high temperature of 88F. Right now we have winds out of the North at 5mph. More rain in the forecast tomorrow as well.

Rough surf and high temps made for a slow day off of the surf.

Some Speckled Trout and puppy Drum caught in the sound earlier today.

Offshore boats out of Hatteras reported catches of Dolphin and some nice Wahoo.

Sea Creature and Good Times each released a Sailfish.

Speckled Trout and keeper Red Drum were caught inshore.

Today was another warm one. Muggy with a high temperature of 88F. Small chance of showers throughout the week but still looking like a delightful one. Winds are out of the SW right now at 8mph.

Just a friendly reminder to fill in any holes you and your family dig on the beaches. Turtle nests are beginning to hatch and the little ones will get caught in the holes as they make their way to the water. Also, they make for a miserable time if you don’t see one driving on the beach..

Lots of activity up in Avon throughout the day. They are reporting catches of Sea Mullet, small Pompano, Croaker and Spanish Mackerel.

Small Pompano reported off the beach here in Frisco as well.

Hot day offshore and they had a tough day fishing but managed some Dolphin and good amounts of Wahoo.

Inshore boats caught limits of Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish and keeper Red Drum.

Heddon X0360BF Tiny Torpedo Topwater Prop Bait, 1 7/8″, 1/4 oz, Bull Frog, Floating

The aerodynamic shape, balance and weight allows this lure to be cast like a bullet. They create a wild splashing surface disturbance and the Tiny Torpedo is great for everything including large and smallmouth bass. Teeny torpedo is Ultralight. Fishes just like its bigger brothers, but with action-packed appeal for panfish.
