OBX report

Critter Gitter · 03-13-2006, 09:12 PM

Somewhere South,
Since cats out of the bag might as well report. Fri to Mon am 3/9-3/13. Water was anywhere from 56 to 60 but mostly 58 and 59. We had place to ourselves pretty much. I ended up with 8 and a 50 and a 51 my biggest. Jimmy had 10 last I counted but he is still fishin and I'm writin. All bites were low to incoming with best bite around high and sunset. No bites on the outgoing. Bunker showed Sun night so able to snag some fresh. OBX rookie got his first. Good work Jay. Good to finally meet Drumdum. Winds were 20 to 30SW Friday dropped out Sat and picked up Sun about 15 SSW. Gorgeous weekend with good fish and good company.

FISH ON!!

Great finally meetin up with you as well,Dave.. S&CKS I got "blanked",but I'll get more chances,maybe not from the beach as it will be elbow to elbow now..... More fun on a spinnin rod anyway...

Kenny lookin at the weather this week that bite will shut down real fast.

Drumdum · 03-13-2006, 11:24 PM

Course it may not hurt "the bite",I'm talking about with the spinner,if it doesn't blow too hard.. Nice job finding that spot.. Had to look at it for quite some time before it was obvious why they were using.. Of course a quarter mi school of fatties don't hurt either..

I found this,I think it was the "Porno Cat".com

Hey Dave, great meeting you, had a blast fishing with you all. It was so awesome to finely get that first big red. Good memories and great laughs with some good people.

John,

That is the price we pay for paying too much attention to the weather. At least it is just starting.

Hey found a pic I thought I lost from last weekend. Shows one of Jimmys first fish. Think it was one of his 48s. Such a nice pic I had to include.

Wooohooo!

I'm startin' to feel an urge to load the jeep up and make the drive down there for the weekend. Hmmmm, wonder what the wife would say if I disappeared for a few days or so?

Nice catches, fellas.

derf · 03-18-2006, 08:53 AM
