I’ve accepted that it will never be summer again.  The water will warm up by September just in time for the first hurricane to make landfall at Hatteras and then shoot up the sounds and turn Va Beach into the northern end of the OBX……. or not!!!
Duck Pier has posted the water temp at 50 degrees.  Satellite imagery shows the water temps on the south side of Hatteras Island in the low to mid 60s – there were good reports of nice sea mullets with some blow toads  over the weekend down there.  Who knows, it might even happen up here one day.

Other than a few dogfish from Jennettes pier, I haven’t heard of any fish landed on the northern beaches for several days.  Down south on Hatteras Island yesterday morning, good drum fishing was reported from the point to the old Frisco pier.
The water temp today at  Duck pier is posted at 43 degrees.  Satellite imagery at Cape Hatteras shows the surface water temp in the low 50s to the high 40s this morning.
Significant chance of rain tomorrow plus more of a cool down the next few days.  Winter isn’t over just yet, ( heavy sigh ) so sorry.  No need to run out and cut the grass.

What started off as a perfectly lovely weekend degraded into what is hopefully winter’s last gasp.  Thursday March 20th is officially the first day of spring but I don’t really expect winter to gracefully fade away this year.  Water temp at Duck Research pier was posted this morning at a high of 43 degrees.  I have heard of a couple puppy drum landed on the south side of Oregon Inlet plus a few dogfish on Jennettes Pier, otherwise the pickings  on the northern beaches have been slim and none.

When the ocean permits it, the offshore fleet has sent some crews out to bring home a few Bluefin trophy fish.

Down south Saturday was a good day on Hatteras Island.  Red Drum Tackle reported nice puppy drum landed at the Buxton jetties, Cape Hatteras and ramps 49 and 55.  Recent satellite imagery showed the sea water temp from Buxton to Ocracoke in the low 60s.  If that temperature would hang around for awhile, we might start hearing of some sea mullet and blowtoads in the coolers.

Have a pleasant St. Paddy’s Day,              Coolbreeze out

Fishing Report March 8th 2014

For Sat March 8th the forecast calls for sunny skies with 0% chance of rain (or anything else),  Expect a high of 56 degrees with West winds 10 – 15 MPH.  Sunset is at 6:03 PM with tomorrow’s sunrise at 6:24 AM.

Freezing temps, deadly wind chills, snow, sleet, gale force winds with ocean overwash and the occasional power outage – for the week that was, if you didn’t like the weather you only had to wait a little while for something different.  Right now I’m guessing what to do with the bright glowing orb in the sky overhead.  To describe March as “coming in like a lion” appears to be a bit of an understatement this year.  The weekend is here and the weather dramas appear to be over.  The ocean is still churning for now but this west wind should calm it down a bit.
