Another good fishing day in Hatteras. There were good catches of Yellowfin Tuna and excellent catches of Dolphin as well as a few Wahoo.

Inshore boats did not have any luck today.

Godspeed released a Blue Marlin and brought a Blue Marlin to the dock that died during it's fight today it weighed 376lbs. Our captains practice catch and release unless it is for a tournament. The fish was brought in so that the meat would not be wasted.

We would like to congratulate our own Brother's Pride for winning largest Blue Marlin in the Hatteras Village Offshore Open tournament with a 454.5 pounder.
