Pulled a kook move and put someone down for May 19th when it was supposed to be June 19th. So I woke up with a day off. I had some photography work to catch up on so I took care of that and gave my buddy Bryan a call. We got a tiny bit of fishing in before a nasty storm popped up. Saw about 25 fish in 45 mins……. Crazy ! Really wish I had a full day trip out there today – good as it gets folks.
Had one of those days where we had too many missed opportunities. Broke the line twice, pulled off a couple, had some missed shots, all that stuff. All good though, we managed to put 2 in the box with a bonus piggy. Fun day, back at it tomorrow. Thanks for checking!
Had my neighbor Pete on the boat today for some more cobia hunting. It doesn’t feel like fishing as much as it does hunting. We left OI and made the 40 mile run to the shoals. We got in there and got it done quickly and had 2 double hook ups and put four good fish in the box up to 45lbs then headed on back.
On another note, I had to watch my best friends boat float out to sea after being overturned on the shoals today. Everyone got out of the incident safely, but the boat is a total loss. He will be back to fishing soon enough and I’m hoping the next steps go smoothly and swiftly so he can get back on the water. Thinking about you buddy, here for you whatever you need.
Had a very enjoyable morning with Jamie from down around Topsail Island. We left the dock at 9 and returned at 12 with 4 nice Cobia up to 55lbs. Great conditions out there, crystal clear water allowed us to see all these fish cruising the bottom. He even let me get one! Thanks Jamie, fantastic morning.
Caught a handful of Cobia today with a great crew from Greensboro. Short report – long day. Back at it tomorrow.
