I have been fishing on the Core Banks for a long time. I try and go down twice a year with a group of people I have know since I was in my Teens.
Over the last few years the participation from this group has fallen off. I have tried fishing Hatteras Point to get my fishing fix,but it is not the same. So what I have done is made a Reservation at the Fishing Camp on Cape Lookout for Oct. 15 to the 19th in a cabin that fits 8 people. We only have 2 people (possibly 3) to spend from Sunday till Thursday.This beach you won't belive with all the fishing room you will .( I better stop.Its something you have to see to belive.) Derf and Deb are bringing there camper over on Monday the 16th and staying till the 19th in the camper so that still leaves 5 to 6 beds available. If you have any intrest and can get away for that week PM me and I will fill you in on the $ and .00 etc.

I've been to Core Banks many times, but its been a few years. In mid-October, its a surf fisherman's Heaven.
 Generally, shorts and barefoot all day and then lightwieght waders at night when fishing. My first BIG Drum came from Core Banks.Chuck, things don't look promising  , but if something changes, I'll be sending you a message and hoping to join ya.
