Here is your Outer Banks fishing report for Hatteras Island: The weather today was not as nice as it has been in the last couple of days. The wind switched today from N to SW blowing 15-25 mph. It has just started laying out within the last hour, blowing 10-15 mph. Temperatures stayed constant around the low 80’s throughout most of the day.Due to the wind switch, beach fishing died out quickly. We had been hearing of pompano, sea mullet and spanish prior to the wind change. There is a little bit of good news for tomorrow however. The wind is suppose to switch back to NW, hopefully pushing the good fishing back in just as fast as it left.
Inshore Charters did not leave the harbor today
Offshore charters had a nice day as the Dolphin fishing was good once again. The Release, released a Blue Marlin early this morning followed by a White Marlin shortly after. After these fish he was put in first place in the Big Rock’s Release category with 6 Whites and 1 Blue.
The Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament leader board remains to look the same with a few exceptions. In the Blue Marlin division Double B still leads (652.8 lbs), followed by Blue Water (580.6 lbs) and Sushi (467.4 lbs). In the Release division the Release leads with 1 Blue and 6 Whites, followed by Jesus Freak (2 Blue, 2 White) and Galot 3 (2 Blue, 2 White).
Today fishing everywhere other than offshore was slow, but with a new wind blows in some promising expectations for tomorrow. Hopefully the sea mullet and pompano make another appearance.
