Inshore from Ocracoke Inlet

Nathan from Raleigh caught a gigantic Gag Grouper from a private boat off of Ocracoke Island yesterday - the grouper weighed in on our scales at 45lb, just 3lb shy of the NC State record! It measured 47” in length with a 30” girth.

Congratulations on an incredible catch Nathan, thank you so much for bringing your fish in to be weighed with us!
