Outer Banks, North Carolina - Saltwater Fishing Report
Nags Head
The Striper fishing is still holding up great, but the weather has been a factor this year. It started out with a mild winter, but lately it's been the wind. Hard north winds have made fishing difficult, if not impossible some days, at least in a center console boat. The 50-70ft. offshore boats don't have a problem, but then they cost twice as much to run & charter. Every size boat has there niche on the water. I feel the fishing will stay good maybe until mid-March. Drop me a line if you want to go hook up on a big Striper.
Tight lines, Capt. Ray
