Here is the Frisco Rod and Gun Hurricane Irene update for Hatteras Island.
At 6am this morning we finished boarding up the store. Special thanks to Creature, Captain of Sea Creature sport fishing, who was driving by on his way to Hatteras village to check on his boat, and stopped to help us. He reported seeing ocean overwash near Frisco pier.
As the picture below shows, the Pamlico Sound has completely receded, leaving many boats in the mud.
More updates to come as the sound water returns. Everyone stay safe!

It was a beautiful day. The Calm before the storm. Sunny skies and light east winds 5 mph. Hurricane Irene effects are expected to be felt as early as early saturday morning with gail force winds, then increasing the rest of the day. I have no report from the beaches. The inshore boats had a good day of speckled trout fishing. Offshore fishing was pretty good too. Good dolphin catches, some gaffer size and wahoo fishing was pretty good. We had 4 sail fish releases from the Hatteras Harbor fleet. Bite Me and Native son each had 1 and Godspeed had 2.
