Lunch break

Ken and I slipped out mid day in my boat for a little lunch break fishin’. . . Ken has been working alot as a new real estate agent here on the Outer Banks. I would give you his information, but I would prefer that you use my wife for all of your real estate needs =) . Anyways, we caught some quality fish today with a handful of throwbacks in the mix. I picked up a couple nice trout and ken hits this 23″ flounder to top it off.

No pic reports

I have a couple reports that are lacking in the photo department. For some reason I didn’t get the camera out and snap a few. Still getting trips and catching fish. I had a group of 2 out the other day playing frogger with rain clouds. During the dry patches we found throwback drum, a handful a keeper trout, and small flounder. I had three fellas from Maryland with me today. . . It was an awesome trip with great company but an average bite. We caught a lot of throwback puppy drum, some trout, and a few flounder that were just shy of the legal size. SO CLOSE! Thank you everyone for fishing with me over the past few months! See you all next year. . . . I hope =)

Pups save the day

Dean and I departed at 0630 for a half day trip. It was a very tough start to the trip with only a couple mystery bites in the first hour and a half. I knew we needed to make a move but the hard NE wind kept our options pretty limited. We headed through some chop to another spot. Dean pitches into a nice little cut and pulls out a 20″ drum to get things going. We hung around that area and picked em off for an hour or two. Great fishing with great company.

Bull Reds on Popping Corks *video*

We headed down to the Nuese River on 9/4/2013 with hopes of catching monster red drum on light tackle. We had no experience with the area, and really no idea where to fish. We got lucky and stumbled upon some fish working the top. We hung in the area all morning and it turned into one of the funnest mornings of fishing I have had in a long time! thanks for watching…..

Mid morning poppin’

Matt, Kent, and myself got out around 0930 for some mid morning poppin’ cork action.  We had some slightly overcast skies so I was hopeful for at least a decent bite.  Thats exactly what we had, a decent bite.  We caught small trout, small pups, small stripers, with a handful of decent fish in the mix. This was Kents second outing on my boat, and the first one was a skunk.  It was nice to get some redemption from that trip.  Next trip should be all time. Thanks for checking!
