The wind keeps blowin ! - Troy Crane - 05/04/13
We are all dressed up and ready to go but mother nature has other plans. The calendar is filling in for the summer so get your trip scheduled ahead of time. We are going to go from a cool spring to a hot summer overnight it appears.
So, if I have to sit around and wait I might as well enjoy my self. Its been a great spring Gobbler season here in eastern north Carolina and I scored a nice Trophy eastern the other day with my buddy Karl at Albemarle Outfitters. This one scored 67.4 and really put on a good show for us. Thanks Karl !

10-30 The aftermath of Sandy - Troy Crane - 10/30/12
As most know, the Outer banks took a major beating from this storm and unfortunatly, there is plenty of damage associated with It. As far as I know, the charter fleet, as a whole, came through ok. Thanks to my right hand man Alan, he kept watch over our rig making adjustments as needed during the storm. As always, the area will clean up from the storm and move on, business as usual, part of living on the coast. Thanks for checking in, Troy. Check out the other photos in this post.

10-26 afternoon trip - Troy Crane - 10/26/12
Today was a beautiful day on the ocean and probably the last one for the next week. We had Mike and Kim from West Va. with us this afternoon and decided to head off the beach a few miles and try our luck with the Kings. Shortly after setting out the rigs we caught one and over the next couple of hours we caught one more King, missed a couple of bites and caught an Albacore, a little slower than I had hoped for but we came home with some meat none the less. Hopefully the fall fishing will continue into November after the storm passes. Water temp was 71 degrees today.
Thanks for checking in, Troy
