Looking forward to a report as well. Offshore conditions sounded good for today and the rest of the week.
One week back from Ocracoke and really miss it.

We went out to the Rockpile area,lines in at 7:30. Never made it to the Rockpile because we stopped and fished a nice weed line with plenty of flyers. We caught a few dolphin, all bailers but couldn't get a school to actually bail. Had 2 nice wahoo bites and pulled the hook on a 50+ right beside the boat. Also jumped off a nice gaffer after it jumped over every line we had out! Saw a few black fins busting but no bites for us. Overall, it was a great day on the water and plenty of boats out fishing.One question, we like to pull all wire this time of year just for Wahoo, does that effect the dolphin bite at all?
