River has been after a wahoo all summer, in fact he said his goal when school ended this past June was to catch a wahoo. With all the wind we have had most of the summer, and me being booked with charters, plus the lack of wahoo around it just never happened. I’d be willing to say there’s been more blue Marlins caught this summer in hatteras than wahoo. I told him let’s go blackfin fishing but he said no way. So down the break we went. . Out of all the suctimers I’ve taken fishing I don’t recall anyone screaming, jumping, yelling, and happier after the first wahoo hit the deck!!! A few bottomfish and Mahi rounded out the day. Flounder season opens this week and we have plenty of open days!

Yesterday was blues, Spanish, kings, jacks, drum, and trout on our 1/2 days…. This morning I took off across the pond and showed up to big marks!! Only problem was the Hook-up found them as well!! It’s awful hard to keep him behind me! But we shared our circle and I followed him home at 30 knots.

A lotta people lately have told me they don’t know how to fry fish. We just had Spanish mackeral and I’d put it up against anything. The lack of speckled trout this summer has been made up for with Spanish mackeral which in my opinion is better to eat anyways. House Autry seafood breader, hot oil! No you don’t need a deep fryer, a pot with oil will work just fine! River has been asking for a bait caster so I let him swing the Denny Brauer Jig rod for a few casts. Surprisingly he only had a few small backlashes. Guess it’s time to turn him loose with some big boy rods in some mil foil on gunersville.

It was a hot week, but the fishing was even hotter! Cobia, amberjack, Kings, trout, blues, and some beautiful Spanish. Some of the biggest I’ve ever seen!

River and I went looking yesterday for something a shrimper told me about and we found it, but the bass weren’t very big! Today I made a super long ride and as I was pulling up here come swirly. Right dead on my numbers!!!!!! I think he been on the pink Pathfinder at night looking at my garmin! Anyways, today was a first for me.. we caught a king mackeral in the pamlico sound. Even the f/v hook-up hasn’t done that yet!!! If anyone has a leed on some jigs like this pink one I’d love too buy em!

The Yamaha just wouldn’t cut it when gannet eyes ran her into the bush’s today! A few Yamahas tried to pull the pathfinder off but they just couldn’t cut it. In come the heavy artillery V8,, And we snatched Ol hang on off like a lizard fish across the free agents fishbox! On the other end Jase wins the award for my happiest customer I’ve had all year. He wanted a shark, and when that rod bent over his smile was as big as the fish was long. I hope swirley new boat is as strong as this pathfinder so he can run her to the other side!

It’s been alotta fish fries the last two days…. There’s not been much action close to home so we have had too make some extra long runs, I showed up today on the 925, and the 418 and swirly was in my spot! I thought I was gonna have to buff out that grey paint!

I waited 4 minutes too long to head back today!!! That 350 Honda was rolling but just wasn’t fast enough!!!

We’ve caught a few fish this week but it’s been a little slow. I ain’t gonna sugar coat it. With today’s calm seas and light winds I we decided too go check out the Neuse river triggerfish bite I’ve been hearing about. I made the crossing this morning and couldn’t believe it when I pulled up too my first rockpile 39 miles from home. A massive bottom mark and we went to work. It was pretty good fishing a B-liner also made the ride back with us. I took the ocean home and stopped at the east wall for some kings, when I got back to hatteras Swirley was in Barney’s slough…. Maybe he will make the crossing tomorrow .
