There is still plenty of fishing action to be had on the Outer Banks. The Giant Bluefin Tuna showed up out of Oregon Inlet late last week, soon after the reopening of the commercial season. Along with the Bluefin, there have been reports of Yellowfin, Kings, Wahoo, and some really nice Blackfin. Jake Worthington and Garrett Grant were working on the Afishionado this past weekend looking for a Bluefin when they landed three Wahoo as bi-catch, including one fish over 80lbs.
From the surf, things have been quiet from on the north beaches. However, to the south of Pea Island, there are reports Puppy Drum and Speckled Trout from Pea Island to the south side of Rodanthe. Black Drum and lots of Sharks are being caught at the point. Sea Mullet, Black Drum and a few Puppy Drum have been beached at Hatteras Village.
Anglers continue to see good Speckled Trout fishing on the western side of the sound from Engelhard all the way to the Pungo River.
So, bundle up and give it a try.
