FISHING REPORT

 

08-06-18

 

Well finally we are starting to see the rain start to slack off.  After almost 4 weeks of rain things are starting to clear up.  There have been some Spanish mackerel along the beaches and up at Cape Lookout.  The larger Spanish are still being caught with live bait around the artificail reefs.  Back in the marsh the red drum bite has slowed up some but should start to pick back up since the rains have slowed up.  Up in the Pamlico Sound the old drum bite has started to pick up a good bit.  The rain has not seemed to bother them so much.  Offshore there are still dome dolphin, wahoo and sailfish being caught.
