Thank you for another successful season! Hope you have a safe and happy holiday season. We reopen mid March 2024 for another season of fishing tradition!

December Fishing On Ocracoke
December brings an end to the tourist season, with very few people visiting the island. The people that do visit may find only one or two restaurants and motels staying open for the winter. But there is a special opportunity for those few visitors to enjoy the solitude and quiet, open beaches. Weather can vary from a beautiful blue sky to windy gray, so come prepared for the season.
We have listed our shop and apartment upstairs with Bobby Harrell and Associates. We would love to find the next family to take over a really great business and wants to live in an amazing community and island! To learn more please contact Bobby at this link
Brad Yeatman of Salty Dog Adventures on Ocracoke caught this beautiful red drum fishing along the beach yesterday in the beautiful weather. Thanks so much for sharing your photo!
Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday season! Our last day open of the 2023 fishing season was Sunday after Thanksgiving.
We reopen mid March 2024. We truly appreciate all your support and friendship this year. Thank you for another amazing fishing season!
