Wind got up behind the cold front and blew like an SOB. Only a couple of
boats got out and only one of them had any luck. Ours was not one of them.
At noon yesterday our capt. (boat was the Poacher)called to say it would be
a no-go for the day. We had hoped for an afternoon trip since the all-day
was scrubbed. Water on the beach was muddy for 1000' out. The Sound looked
like the Mississippi on a bad day. Looks like things settled down last
night and this afternoon's boats did well. Catch the wind right and this
week will be a killer on big stripers.

Give the west end of Manns Harbor Bridge a try if you are wading.
If
you want a great half-day charter at low cost for fly fishing, try
Capt. Dave Dudley. If you want to try spinning tackle, let him take
you outside and pick up on some of those 50 lb. stripers they are
getting now. Some of the folks in the office are heading down
Monday
to try for the ocean side Rock.

The largest release we had a couple of weeks ago was 28 pounds. I
must
admit they were one after another for the four hours that we lasted.
The
fisherman from the beaches were landing the occassional fish with one
landing a 48 pounder. My bud's house is in the sound located about a
1/2
mile behind the oregon inlet marina. The logjams at the marina were
unheard
of for this time of year. We have landed a few fish in the Cape Fear
river
here in Wilmington but nothing like the fishing north of hear at the
Banks.

tightlines,
