Hatteras beach there was big drum caught near the inlet, along with bluefish, blow toads, and sea-mullet.

From the beach today David Sledge from Chesapeake, Va caught a nice 45 inch drum late in the day at ramp 55.

The drum fishing was great again today for the inshore boats.

With the wind and rain this morning only a few boats went offshore. The yellowfin tuna, blackfin tuna, and dolphin were biting again today. Albacore and amberjack started to bite today as well. There was sea bass, grouper, and golden tile caught.

Penn Fathom Star Drag

The revolutionary Live Spindle? design is the reason the new Fathom Star Drag is the most castable reel in the market place. The improved configuration allows the spool to spin independently of the spindle and pinion gear, which significantly reduces friction experienced from the extreme acceleration of the spool when casting. Other reels using a “fixed spindle” design slow the rotation of the spool and reduce casting distance. Additionally the Live Spindle improves the retrieve of the reel because the spindle and pinion do not need to turn relative to each other during heavy loads, unlike a “fixed spindle” reels that result in a difficult retrieve and erratic drag.

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

Today was sunny and warm with light winds. The winds were from south-west at 5 mph and the temperatures were in the upper 60’s.

Out at Cape Point in Buxton the big red drum hit the beach this afternoon and early evening. They are probably still catching them as I type this. If you have not already heard Cape Point in Buxton is closed to vehicle access because of some American Oyster Catchers exhibiting some breeding behavior. You can still walk below the high tide line in the water to get to Cape Point. Over on the Frisco Beach some blow toads, sea mullet and a few puppy drum were all caught today.

The inshore boats had a decent day of puppy drum catches in the Pamlico Sound.

The offshore boats had a real good blackfin tuna bite again today. Also some tilefish and rose fish were brought up from the bottom.

The picture below is a nice golden tilefish caught aboard the “Bite Me” charter boat out of Hatteras. Nice catch.
