Get It While Then Gettin's Good
Our entire offshore fleet made it out before a nasty weekend puts a damper on things, and the return was good! Limits of mahi all around, even a 45# citation! We also saw scattered black and yellow fin tuna up and down the docks.
The nearshore guys did great with spanish mackerel and bluefish.
And inshore is still keeping up with the speckled trout and red drum.
Once this weather blows over and you're ready to go play outside, give us a call at 252-441-6301 or check us out at oregon-inlet.com
Shore Can!

Friday's Mahi Madness
Today, we had an empty creek! All of our offshores went out and slayed the mahi! They also brought in a few wahoo, lots of sailfish citations, and a few yellowfin and blackfin tuna! Nearshores did well with drum and ribbonfish, and inshores are still on the trout and drum.
Next few days are looking crazy with the weather. Hopefully everyone can get back out soon!
Thunder Thursday
Today, we had about a dozen offshores get out, and they had a good day with the marlin again. Many citations came in for blue and white marlin, as well as sailfish. They also brought in mahi and wahoo. Nearshores has a good day with the ribbons, even though they were fighting with the weather. Nearshores also brought in spanish mackerel and false albacore. Inshores also had a good day, bringing in some nice speckled trout.
It looks like the weather is supposed to keep calm for next couple of days, turning sour by Sunday. Give us a call to check availability for your next charter at 252-441-6301. You can also check and book online, or come see us in person!
