We are on the board first fish after the storm.  Pretty work drew 

We're still here!

Got back from Irene.  Thanks to everyone for the calls and concern. It means alot to have so many friends out there.  Well, no need to be negative, time to move forward and get back to fishing.  Fishing was good prior to the hurricane and I am sure it will be good now as well.  The mullet are already jumping and flapping in the surf in their southern run. The late summer and fall is always great fishing.

Problems:  the Oregon Inlet Fishing Center has been mauled by high storm surge and the docks, finger piers, and fuel tanks have been ruined, so we need a few weeks to get that back into order.  There also has been a new inlet cut below Oregon Inlet that has severed ties with Rodanthe, Waves, Salvo, Hatteras, Frisco, etc.  We actually will be running folks down there to check out ther property and get them back to their businesses/ homes.  In Kill Devil Hills and  Nags Head I am already seeing tourists coming back down.  We will be running trips out of Thicket Lump Marina, the public access ramp acros from Pirates Cove in Nags Head, and in Kitty hawk.  So we are rigged up.  Ches is gonna be out for a week or so since he is covered up with debris clearing on his tractor helping out the community.  That leaves Matt and myself.

Note to photojournalists & homeowners, our rates for riding around all day and taking pictures would be the same as our fishing rates.  If you want less a expensive rate call around.  There was a local capt just today undercutting by 75%.  Good for him if he can make it at that rate; we cannot and will not.  Trips start out at $375.  Thanks everyone and lets get back to fishing!
