Man What a GREAT FEW DAYS to Be OFF, Look @ all These Fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But Before we get to all of that we had a Very Special Occurrence in a Young Man's Life occur on Hatteras Island. Wheeler Ballance, Son of Our Fire Chief Todd Ballance Caught his First BIG DRUM.  I can not explain to you the magnitude of this FIRST of Many Drum to be Caught by this Fine Young Man.  It gives me Goosebumps just Typing this Report. Because Everyone Remembers their First Big Drum From the Beach.  Just Spoke to Todd they were coming back from Getting Wheelers Drivers License.  Betcha he was more excited about the Drum.  

OffShore:     

Wahoo have Shown up to around 80 Pounds.  Several of our Boats had Citations.  BlackFins, Triggers, YellowFins (scattered).   But Fishing has been Great for my last 2 days off.  I managed to get over to the Marina to take the Pictures So it was nice to see the Catch and the First Wahoo's of the Season come in.  

InShore: 

Citation Sheepshead Citation Drum and Blues have kept Sound Anglers Happy.  Been Nice enough past few days a few of them went Near Shore Wreck Fishing and Did well on the Bottom Fish.
