[OBI Weekly Fishing Report] Brought to you by Joe Malat - Your Outer Banks Fishing Authority.
updated every Thursday evening

Fishing Report for the Week of July 3-10.

Water Temps: Duck - 77 Degrees
Frisco - 80 Degrees

An Overview for the Week

Despite a bit of wind and a day of rain, it was a beautiful week on the Outer Banks. This week’s report will be brief and to the point, I didn’t have much time to get a lot of fishing news…my day job took a lot of time and energy this week.
[surf fishing report] Many sections of beach remain closed, so the surf fishing report is a little slim this week. Clear water along much of the beach produced a mix of bluefish, flounder, pompano, flounder, Spanish mackerel and a few false albacore. A few big sea mullet continue to be caught, but they are very scattered. Triggerfish were caught near the jetties at Buxton. Ocracoke had pompano, spot, black drum and a few spadefish, topped by a whopping nine pounder!
[sound fishing report] Selected locations continue to produce speckled trout, puppy drum, small bluefish, flounder and Spanish mackerel just inside the inlets. Free floating grass was a problem in some areas.
[pier fishing report] Clear, warm water enticed fish that are usually found further offshore to move close to the beach. Schools of dolphin (mahi, as some restaurants want to call them) were seen swimming within casting range of casters on the end of the piers north of Oregon Inlet, and a few were caught! Spanish mackerel made a strong slowing and other catches included bluefish, spots, king mackerel, cobia, triggerfish and spadefish. Avalon Pier reported a very good king mackerel bite.
