Report:
Nice weather today. Nice high tide cycle. Nice baitwell full of live bait. Shrimp and Mud Minnows. All we needed was some nice Speckled Trout, but once again, we were thwarted in our efforts. Small Trout after small Trout at the Cape Lookout Rock Jetty. Numbers were good, but the fish box stayed empty. When we left the Jetty, we had probably released 50 Speckled and Gray Trout and we had 4 in the cooler. Next, we went searching for Gray Trout and Sea Mullet among the sink netters and found lots of small Grays and Croakers. Then we headed to the west a little farther and made our day with the craziest collection of fish that I've seen in a quite a while. I reckon I'd call in Blowtoad fishing since Northern Puffers made up the majority of the catch. Black Sea Bass up to 15", Pinfish up to 14", Smooth Dogfish up to 20 lbs, and a 17" Gray Trout were the headliners. When it was all said and done, we had a nice cooler full of fish, and we had released a huge number of fish. We never did find the elusive 20" Speckled Trout. Back to Hatteras for me tommorrow so I'm sure the fishing will improve! Total Catch for the Day: 45 Speckled Trout, 25 gray Trout, 30 Bluefish, 17 Northern Puffers, 15 Black Sea Bass, 6 Croaker, 2 Pinfish, 3 Spottail Pinfish, 4 Smooth Dogfish, 1 At Sharpnose Shark, 6 Rock Sea Bass, 1 Bank Sea Bass, 3 Hogfish, 2 Scup, 1 Oyster Toadfish, 2 Leopard Sea Robin and 1 Clearnosed Skate
