| Saturday, May 18, 2012 Fishing Rate >>> Rain and wind on Ocracoke the past few days has made for some tough fishing conditions on the isalnd. But some people still made it out on the beach to find large bluefish, pompano, gray trout, a few puppy drum, and sea mullets. The Reel Nauti Tournament boats did go out Thursday, but it was a short day with the rain. They did find dolphin even with the shorter trips out. With Ocracoke's wind gusting out of the NE Friday up to 28 mph and storms building up offshore, it was another day fishing in close for many. This storm of NE wind is expected through Sunday and then switch from the SE/SW by Monday. Although it does seem to be falling out a little already mid day Saturday. Tyler Hegamyer of Fredericksburg, VA shared his bluefish photos with us by Facebook that he caught Thursday evening. Jerry Moye of Blacksburg, VA also found a nice size bluefish and shared his photo on the beach with us. Bill Smith of Buxton, NC had a 32" bluefish on cut bait and came by to share the photo. David Stotts of Chapel Hill, NC came by with his 10 lb bluefish yesterday as well. Larry Zilch of Mount Union, PA texted over his pompano photo from earlier in the week. Dan Hamel of Virginia also texted in his photos of a couple of really nice bluefish from the beginning of last week to share. Captain Ernie Doshier of the "Gecko" and "Drumrunner" shared his photos of a dolphin catches offshore earlier in the week and one of five red drum caught fishing inshore. Kevin Boyd of Washington, NC shared his photo of a nice sailfish he released Thursday fishing offshore. Thanks for sharing the photos! Take at look today’s featured product available in the shop or online at http://shop.fishtradewinds.com/ Tradewinds Tackle Beach Bomber Lead Sinker Lead surf sinker prevents your weight from moving in the surf. The stainless steel arms lock in place and anchor in the sand. When you are ready to retrieve, pull on the line and the arms snap open to allow for easy retrieval. These sinkers can actually increase the function of your rod by holding better with less weight than a pyramid sinker. Keep the lead weight lower and stay within the casting weight range of your rod. Have fun fishing! Melinda |
