So the wind fell out somewhat yesterday but it didn't change too much on the fishing front. Things will slowly start getting back to normal and we should begin seeing Outer Banks fall fishing at it's…

So our Hatteras and Oregon Inlet fleets are still laying to the dock inshore and offshore, nearshore, whatever you want to call it.
The Hatteras fleet can't get people down there yet, and we'll start right out in today's report saying there's some possibility that a one-lane detour may be in effect by Friday, but you are not to go by me for that information.
All you got to do is Google Hatteras Island and you will find out what you need to know.
You'd be foolish to drive a long way really hoping to get down on Hatteras without checking first.
I heard a story yesterday about them letting somebody drive across the Oregon Inlet Bridge who wanted to go fishing on the old Bonner Bridge Pier on the far side.
And sure enough, those people got over there and then tried to take off and go down Hatter's Island.
where they were held up and sent back, give it time, let the people do the job they need to do, and we'll get it open again here pretty quick.
There were three commercial boats that did go down the channel and got across the bar, And went fishing yesterday.
I'm not sure what they're commercial fishing for, but I think they were gill netters.
I did talk to Captain William Howell on the drifter to get him to kind of paint me a picture of what things are looking like.
And he felt like the Oregon Inlet Charter Fleet, which could be from Pirate's Cove or...
of the bridge of the Bass Night Bridge and Miss Katie is going to be working on that lump for the next day or two and hopefully they'll get back out maybe on Friday is what he was sort of thinking it'll be starting from scratch but it should be a good tuna bite uh We'll have to wait and see on that.
