• Hatteras Island Fishing Report

    Hot and humid today with a high temp of 86F. Rain and some wind moving in tomorrow afternoon from what is left of Elsa.

    Fishing off the surf has been tough this week but there are fish to be found.

    Ramp 55 was the hot spot today with Pompano earlier in the day and a bunch of puppy Drum close to sunset this evening.

    Looks like some Spanish Mackerel early this morning at ramp 45 as well.

    Offshore boats went out today and brought back limits of Dolphin with a few Wahoo and Blackfin Tuna mixed in.

    Inshore boats are still catching Red Drum and Speckled Trout.

    Flounder caught and released off of the end of Pole Road early this morning.

    Happy 4th of July! Hope you enjoyed yourself and stayed safe. Our high temperature was 83F just after noon today. Right now winds are blowing out of the SW at 11mph. Looks like more of the same temps tomorrow with winds changing it up and coming out of the West.

    Large swells and currents here on the southern beaches made for a tough day surf fishing.

    Reports of nice Speckled Trout in the sound from Avon down to Hatteras.

    Most of the boats made it offshore bringing back lots of Dolphin again today.

    Bite Me released 2 White Marlins!

    Native Son and Chaser both released Blue Marlins today as well.

    Bottom fishing was plentiful. Anglers brought back mixed bags of Amberjack, Snowy Grouper and Beeliners.

    Inshore boats had good catches of Speckled Trout. Nearshore boats found some Spanish Mackerel.

    Seaguar Inshore is a new 100 percent Fluorocarbon leader designed to exceed the expectations of every angler that fishes the expansive inshore environment. Thinking back on the introduction of fluorocarbon leader material, Seaguar Blue Label was the first fluorocarbon that I ever used.

  • Hatteras Island Fishing Report

    Welcome to all those who are joining us for this 4th of July week here on the island! It was a beautiful day here today. We had a high temperature of 82F this afternoon. Winds right now are out of the East at 4mph. High risk of rip currents through Sunday evening. Keep an eye on your loved ones in the surf.

    FREINDLY REMINDER – Please remember this is a National Park and ALL fireworks are illegal to set off. Enjoy your 4th celebration with friends and family but leave the fireworks to the professionals on the Avon Pier tomorrow evening.

    Fishing all around was non-existent yesterday. Nothing to report.

    Today was a bit better with some reports of Croaker and Sea Mullet up in Avon.

    Speckled Trout are still being caught in the sound. Wade out knee deep or head out on your kayak for best results.

    The offshore boats finally made it out and the fish were there. Lots of Dolphin of all sizes.

    Sea Creature and Release both released a Blue Marlin today.

    Hatteras Fever II released both a Blue Marlin and White MarliIn

    Inshore- Speckled Trout, Drum, Bluefish and Spanish Mackerel

    Rapala F07S Original Floating Lure, 2 3/4″, 1/8 oz, Silver, Floating
