Fish, Shellfish, and Waterspouts at the Outer Banks

If you haven't noticed, it has been a bit slow on the ole Three Dogs Blog.  Part of the time I have been traveling for work.  But, I also got away for our yearly vacation to Cape Hatteras.  This year was jam packed.  Here are some pics...

Day one, we went down to the marina to scope out a possible charter for some deep sea fishing.  Unfortunately, it was a windy week and we could not make it onto a make up charter as there was only one good day and the boats were booked full.  This is what they were bringing in during the week:


Nice sized Mahi-Mahi, Yellowfin Tuna, and a Wahoo or two were the order of the day on every boat.  There was even a local waiting on some scraps...


Hope cleaned her first fish: 4 sea bass and a nice bluefish...


The boys went digging for shellfish one day and pulled in some oysters, clams, and a mussel or two...





Finally, one day, we saw three waterspouts out over the sound in the span of 15 minutes...




We picked up some Yellowfin, Mahi-Mahi, and Swordfish to have over the winter.  Unfortunately, the fish thawed on the way home.  So, I and predict a series on how to grill some fish in the very near future...

Thanks for stopping by,

Bill
