In Summary:

 

Surf Fishing Report:

Surf fishing was slow with just a few Spot and Sea Mullet scattered.

Hugh Parnell took the advice from TW’s and caught a cooler of Bluefish 400 yards off the beach in front of the Lighthouse, South Nags Head. He was fishing with Clark Spoons. Always a good idea to stop in TW’s and talk to the guys. You could be surprised to what you might learn. (Picture).

 

The winds are SE at 9 and the water temp is 73 degrees. Overcast, light winds, calm Ocean.
