Meyers Director of the North Carolina Wildlife Resource Commision this morning;

Honorable Sir,

I received an email about renewing my out of state Coastal fishing license for 2012. I will not be renewing because of the harsh new rules imposed by the National Park Service on the Cape Hatteras National Seashore Recreational park. It is unfortunate as I have enjoyed my time of nearly 50 years fishing along the Outer Banks of North Carolina . I hope that you will support the “Preserving Public Access to Cape Hatteras Beaches Act”, a bill that would reinstate the Interim Management Strategy governing off-road vehicle use on Cape Hatteras National Seashore introduced by US Senators Burr and Hagan.

Thank you,

Sandy started it out with a nice Pompano shortly after we started fishing. The picture doesn't show the fish very well, but the broadside shot was missing from the camera when I went to review it later.



Fishing was slow for a few hours until the thunderstorm passed by a couple of hours before high tide. My cousin's wife caught this sheephead.



We caught a mixed bag with about 11 different types of fish caught including three limits of keeper grey trout :), sea mullet, spot, and a small bonnethead shark.

The fish are there.

You know stop all gillnets,dropnets,ect,so the rec fisherman can catch more fish??

Think about it,this is EXACTLY how the "snake" they have gone to bed with will bite them back.. Suppose dredging were banned,would it not eventually not close OI,Ocracoke Inlet,Hatteras Inlet,and others to the south of us to ANY AND ALL small boat or otherwise traffic that wanted to get out to sea and catch a fish?? Suppose they decided that ANY AND ALL bottomfishing inshore,both sound and ocean was also a threat?? Jmho,this is a slippery slope that is already in place,so ya better put ya some grippy boots on.....

I've never tried this early and usually reserve it for summer/early fall but I have a few newbies with me that want to give it a go.

Also, can anyone report on the mosquitoes. Are they horrific yet? I was last down in late fall and was lucky to escape with my life. They were easily the worst I've seen in 25 years so anything will be an upgrade from that.
