my buddy Bill took me with him and his family to fish Cape Hatteras in October. Fall is one of the best times for the big red drum which was our target. While we were there the bid drum were not. there were plenty of 2-3lb bluefish which were a lot of fun and some spanish mackerel and false albacore raided up and down the beach as well but we did not get any since they were out a little too far this time around.
