Ditching everything

Every winter myself, along with a number of others, get obsessed with chasing trophy specks in the “Hot Ditch.”    I have been chasing a double digit trout up there for a few years now.  Here are a few that keep me going back.  Hoping this is the year.  If I get a 10+ I will never go back.

Between the rain

Had Jim and his wife Lee Ann on board today for an afternoon charter.  Fortunately,  we timed it just right and never felt a drop of rain.  During that time we caught trout and drum.  I think I need to sharpen my hooks up because we had a lot of missed opportunities. Still managed a great catch and I think they will enjoy their trout and drum for dinner. Thanks for fishing with me!

Great company for a great company

Had the pleasure of taking out a couple guys from Carolina Designs Realty on a morning charter. We caught a lot of fish and the guys took home some dinner. Thanks for checking!

Also caught a nice trout the other day.  She was a little shy of the citation I have been trying to get for years.

Surfed out

Took my hobie kayak out yesterday evening.  I had surfed for 8 hours a day for 2 days straight so I was actually “surfed out.”   I didn’t even want to surf the rest of the day even though the waves were still cranking.  So I grabbed my kayak, rod, and a pack of gulps and headed to kitty hawk bay.  The bite was just as good as the waves with a bite just about every other cast.  Caught trout and drum for a couple hours and saved a few for dinner. Gotta love the Outer Banks this time of year!  Two charters this week (wed & thurs) so stay tuned for reports and thanks for checking!
