Comments:  It has been windy the last couple of days and it is going to the same through tomorrow. Your best bet for fishing will be down towards Hatteras with all the NE wind. Hang in there, you know the old saying "Even a bad day of fishing beats being at work"!!! Have a GREAT day and weekend on the OBX...

Good Fishing!!!
