Had some excellent Jack fishing on my morning trip. Surrounded the boat and fed them live bait over and over. Fun fishing. Had a steady drum bite going for Matt and crew this afternoon. Thanks for fishing with me guys – and thanks for checking!
I get alot of requests for morning trips. I also turn alot of people down because they only wanted a morning trip If you are already on the Outer Banks – you will most likely not be able to book a morning trip with me for that week (Until after labor day). Morning slots are booked weeks in advance – my next open morning is August 11th.
People say they think the fishing would be better in the morning, but that is definitely not the case with the fishery we have right now. That can definitely apply to some species – but none of which we are targeting right now. Most of the spots / fish are more tide dependent then anything else.
Also, some customers are concerned about the heat during the middle of the day. It can certainly get warm – but there is usually a nice breeze on the water that is far cooler then the one the rest of your group will feel while they are baking on the beach. I also have plenty of shade under the T-Top. Feel free to bring your bathing suit too. There’s always time for a quick swim!
So go ahead and sleep in, have a nice breakfast, let that hangover ease a little and let’s fit you in one of my afternoon slots and I’ll see you at the dock at noon, or maybe an evening trip at 4pm!
PS – today’s fishing report – Found 5 keeper flounder and got back on the drum. Nice trip!
My boat is down with a pretty significant repair needed. Hopefully itll go quickly and smoothly. Luckily, my awesome buddy Patrick who happened to of purchased my old boat that I used for guiding let me use it while mines in the shop. I miss that rig – its a very fishing friendly layout. We started off the morning fishing hard for 1 keeper flounder. Made a move and found an awesome drum bite. Played with them for a while before changing back up to meat fishing. Grinded hard and managed a beautiful 24.5″ trout. Thanks guys!
Had Leif and his Father and Grandfather on board for a nice Father’s Day gift trip. He really wanted to catch sharks so we drifted the chum back and caught some sharpies and a blacktip. Got lucky and hit a motherload of big drum on the way in. Nice bonus. However, a little further in my boat decided to break down and we had to get towed in. Memories……
