  1. I stopped in here looking for fly patterns for specks or reds, and saw this. Summer's a tough time on the Outer Banks. It's hot, lots of tourists there, and there aren't a lot of fish biting. You can get blues and spanish at the piers, spot, croaker,and fluke. Cobia early, and maybe king mackeral. Depends on the day. Where you are I wouldn't expect a lot of surf action, on the fly or even surf casting. You are probably better off hooking up with a local guide at Oregon Inlet or maybe back in the sound. Get out there early and just before dark. If you can still get access near the old Kitty Hawk Pier, fish the north side, close to the pier, for that matter, the north side of any pier. I do recall a hole near Helga Street. If you have a 4WD, head south, to Hatteras Island, provided you can still get access to the ramps. Check with NPS before making the trip. A lot has changed in the past couple of years. You might want to look at the Red Drum Tackle Shop website as well for info on the beaches, and fishing opportunities on the beaches south of where you're staying. I know it's not fly fishing related, but there is some decent crabbing if you're willing to drive a bit. Bmail me for details. TW's tackle shop in kitty hawk across from the post office is a great place to get tackle and fishing reports. I think there's one in Duck, as well. Good Luck! Kurt
