September proved to be a great month for us. The weather cooperated and we only had to reschedule a handful of trips. The last week we caught a few limits of tuna and mahi. Sharks are still a problem, but most days we could get far enough away to make a catch. Looking forward to October!
Great fishing today! We were skunked at 9:00, and by 10:00 were loaded up, ready to head home. We came across this ball of squid, tunas, sharks, and a blue marlin that are a tuna 40′ from the boat. He put on a good show and gave us our tuna back!
Now is the time for tuna! 10 fish up to 76# today, and don’t forget the limit of dolphin to boot! We have some dates available, call now to get in on the action!
The last few days have been a little frustrating! We found the Gulf Stream change on Wednesday and had great sport fishing. Thursday, we expected the water to move in across the Point, but it had shoved down the road and we ended up chasing a school of fish 8 miles to the Southeast and ended up with a limit of yellowfin, a few blackfin and a Wahoo. Yesterday the water turned over, 77° green, dead water covered everything from the Point down to the 400 line, and to get the right fishes, using good equipment as the best trout spinning reel is necessary as well. Luckily we found some better water and scrapped out a handful of yellowfins and a few blackfin. Today, I opted to head down below Doamond Shoals. We had a half limit of dolphin, a few yellowfin, and a bunch of blackfin. Pretty water moved in below the Point, and the boats up there caught limits of yellowfin!
September is one of the best months for fishing using the best saltwater spinning reel under 200. The water in the lakes has turned over, the deep cool water rising and the shallow warm water sinking. By September, all species of warm-water fish have spawned, leaving plenty of fresh minnows in the water for natural forage.

Hermine tore through the Outer Banks this weekend, and the backside of the storm was packing some hurricane force winds that took many of us by surprise. The Frenzy rode the storm out in a slip at Pirate’s Cove, I’m headed back to the Fishing Center today. Hopefully the seas will fall out so we can make our trips this week. We had some great fishing before the storm, let’s hope it continues! We have some days open next week, give me a call or check out our online calendar.
