Outer Banks

Been here in the OBX for a week. Got another week of vacation left. Last week was windy as hell with only some croakers and a couple of trout caught. This week the wind is good, out of the northeast, and we're catching flounder and one weird looking critter that was about 3 feet long & I've yet to identify it. I don't know jack about saltwater fishing, but it's been fun figuring it out the last few days. I have definitely got the skates / rays figured out. Apparently it doesn't matter how, when, or where I fish, the damned things are gonna bite.

Good luck out there, let us know when the fish fry is

Me and some friends are heading to south core banks in october for 9 days, went last year and had a ball, seen a 48, 42 and 36 inch red drum caught. I'm hooked now and look forward to going every year. You never know what you will reel in over there, plus it is so relaxing.

We went out last week on the head boat and man was the wind killer. Went about 5 miles out and had 5ft to 8ft swells and only managed to catch 4 black bass. It was tough and I was happy as hell to be back on land.

Hey David saw your post about going to core banks in oct. when are you going in october? I guess ill see everybody at high rock on the 30th if I don't melt working outside between now and then! I may be wrong but i saw some bubbles coming up from the bottom at Harris the other day and i think the water was starting to boil! The fishing has been pretty hot there lately though with some nice topwater action.

David, going there myself in october might see you there but see you at high rock first. Never been to South Core banks always went to North Core but going to try something different this year.

We are leaving Oct. 21 and coming back on the 29th, so I will miss Mayo again but my partner all way takes up my slack we are staying in a 12 man cabin, and every truck will have a cross/bones flag with a light on top of the flag poles. It will be fun to see ya over there. Are y'all heading to High Rock on Friday evening? we are so we can fish that afternoon?
