i picked up my gal in wilkesboro at 10pm. got to the beach around 2am. we were at the avalon pier btw..-thanks to who ever sugested it -the surf was up duuuuddee!!! it was pretty wicked, looked to be 8-10 foot seas. btw this picture was taken as i was talking to rebbasser

fishing was pretty good a lot of small spots and croakers quite a few flounder we ended up with 4 keeper flounders..about 30 mixed spot/croakers of decent size. caught several puppy drum had a REAL good one on but lost it haulin it up the side

.
caught 3 speckled trout one keeper size. bite died big time around daylight..

my lil gal took the flounder and half the spots/mullet...

and of all the times for my pos hp409 to take a dump om me..

then was not it.but it did i took a mess of pictures only a hand full came out

. actually all of the pier/fish pictures did not come out -i about threw it across the yard -some of the pictures -takin at my house- i used my mom's cannon camera-SWEET-..

Zooker, I stayed down around MP 23 in August. I sure love the OB. I went on a gulf stream charter but only caught tile fish and one amber jack out of Oregon Inlet. We were in 8 footers and half the guys got sick, but I would do it again anytime.
Shouldn't the stripers be running down the coast about this time?

zooker · 09-29-07, 10:19 PM

this was at the 6-7mp.. 8-10 footers aint fun but you can do it.i have been in 12-14 footers thats plum scary. wind was from the north at 25+knots i know of 3 of the big head boats that did not go out. it had to be pretty ugly to keep a 100 foot boat at the dock..

air temp was 52 degrees friday night,water was 73.. striper's normally do there winter beach huggin till the water hits low 60's.. the next two months the fishing should be killer on the coast..

Bender · 09-29-07, 10:39 PM

zooker · 09-30-07, 07:32 AM

bassfisher02 · 09-30-07, 01:00 PM

So you caught a 500lb+ Hammerhead on a surfboard? Thats pretty impressive.

zooker · 09-30-07, 08:13 PM

having caught a bunch of sharks between 150-538 pounds just off the beach 200-300 yards out. you aint catching me swiming in dat body of water period..
