"After Wednesday, they loaded up and quit." Crisp said offshore fishermen "got all they wanted Monday and Tuesday. Some of the local boys did good on kings and Spanish, nothing really spectacular." Inshore fishing had also slowed down over the weekend, Crisp said. A few spots, croakers, flounder and drum were biting, he added.

Tripp's Fishing Center Fishermen leaving Tripp's Fishing Center at Shallotte Point are returning with nice catches of spottail drum, reported marina operator Joyce land. Over the weekend, Grover Williamson and party from Tabor City caught seven spottail drum on Saturday and 12 on Sunday, Ms. land said. For R.D. Capps of Lurnbcrton, it wasn't easy catching his two spottail drum. As Ms. Land reported, capps had two drum that fell from his fishing string, so he jumped overboard after the two. "He managed to save the smallest one," she said. "It weighed ten pounds. Of all the spottail drum 1 weighed last week, the smallest weighed ten pounds." She said the drum are biting mullet minnows on a leader with no cork.

Altogether, he added, 17 nests have been located on the beach, with egglaying observed in two instances.
