• Happy Valentine’s Day Hatteras Island Fishing Report

    Here is the Frisco Rod and Gun Outer Banks Valentine’s Day Fishing Report for Hatteras Island.

    Today was windy but sunny for once.  We had west winds 15-20 mph and the temperatures were in the low 50’s.

    There has been a few puppy drum caught around the Buxton beach jetties.  Out at Cape Point the puppy drum bite was pretty good with many caught.  Over here on the Frisco Beach we had a few puppy drum reported.  I don’t have any puppy drum pictures today, but my beautiful wife Jessica brought our son Bodey, almost 6 months old, to work today and he got his Valentine’s present from his Grandaddy Bryan and Grammie Susie.  Thank You so much!!!

  • Hatteras Island Fishing Report

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

    Today we had steady snow showers all day.  We have 6.5 inches of snow on the ground right now.  The winds were from the north-east at 15-20 mph with gusts in the 30’s.  The temperatures were hanging around 31-32 degrees all day.  The roads have been pretty good with mostly slushy snow with very little ice.

    Even though we had snow, it did not keep folks from catching those puppy drum.  We had reports of some catching over 50 puppy drum on the Frisco Beach today over on Ramp 49.  The picture below is PJ Williams with one of many puppy drum he caught today while fishing on the Frisco Beach.  Pretty work PJ and thank you for the picture..

  • Cape Hatteras Notebook: Snowing–Again!

    Drum Fishing on Snowy Cape Hatteras Beach
    Drum Fishing on Snowy Cape Hatteras Beach

    It is snowing at Cape Hatteras for the fourth time this winter. It is the second “big” snow we have gotten and we really can’t believe it!  It’s not supposed to snow this much here! It is still coming down and I have 4 to 5 inches on my porch already.  This snow event is more user friendly because it is not as icy as last time. Islanders are out and about enjoying the snow.  The fishing is even good. My friend Eliza Stowe Powell posted this photograph of her husband and her dad fishing for puppy drum. They had a good catch despite the weather!

    Dolphin Realty’s staff went for a snowy beach walk this morning across the dune from the Hatteras Cabanas and got this pretty photo at the beginning of the snowfall.

    I am home with the baby boys today, so no playing in the snow for me. However the view of the winter woods around my home is lovely!

    Many of you have been helped by Kristie Brown when you stop in the Frisco Rod and Gun. She got to have a very snowy day off today and snapped this shot of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse standing tall in the snowstorm.  A rare but pretty sight!

    Everyone stay safe and keeps warm in the snow today. Enjoy playing outside and have a bowl of snow cream before it is gone!

    Thanks to Kristie Brown, Nancy Scarborough at Dolphin Realty, and Eliza Stowe Powell for the photos!
