Today we enjoyed another beautiful day offshore fishing out of Hatteras, NC with Boris Belkin, Kadir Arslan, Richard Knapp, and his son, Richard Jr. We were greeted with perfect summer conditions—light winds, sunny skies, warm temperatures, and crystal-clear 83-degree blue water in the Gulf Stream.
The morning started out a little slow as we picked away at a few mahi-mahi (dolphin) and jack crevalle while trolling. As the day went on, the bite improved. After lunch, the floating grass lines came together, the fish moved in, and we finished the afternoon with a nice catch and plenty of action.
It was one of those classic summertime Hatteras offshore fishing charters where patience pays off. Every trip is different, and today's conditions rewarded us with a fun day on the water and happy anglers.
Fishing with this crew is always a pleasure. Boris, Kadir, Richard, and Richard Jr. are some of my favorite people to have aboard, and they always make the trip enjoyable. Thanks again, guys—we're already looking forward to the next adventure!
