"It's kind of the same old story," Gary Can of Holden Beach Marina said Monday. "They get out a few times and catch a few fish. There's nothing really on fire." Can said anglers caught flounder and sheepshcad inshore and king mackerel and bottom fish when they could get offshore. "The biggest problem is the weather and the wind and all the storms we've had coming through," Can said. "It's been a tough year for the wind." THpp's Fishing Center Fishermen out of Tripp's Fishing Center caught lots of flounder and Spanish mackerel last week, said spokesperson Joyce Land. "The flounder did fairly decent through the weekend with spots and croakers," she said Monday. Billy Cook of Whileville landed 20 Spanish mackerel on Sunday, ac cording to Land. "I had one or two king fishermen out but they didn't do too much," she said. "The Spanish was biting." Ocean Isle Marina Ken Shipley of Ocean Isle Marina said the recent slow fishing continued last week as fishermen dealt with un favorable conditions offshore. "Fishing is still slow on account of the weather." Shipley said Monday. "It's been very rough be cause of the wind, and with all the rain we've had there's too much fresh water." Due to the conditions, Shipley said anglers caught little more than a few Spanish mackerel outside. Char ters boats caught shark, while black sea bass were landed on head boats. "There's been a few flounder, some sheepshead, some catfish showing up," he added. "It shows signs of picking up. This past week a lot of flounder showed up.

Pier Pishing There's no reason to get excited yet, but it shouldn't be long before pier fishermen start filling their coolers with yejlow-belly spots. "I understand they are up north coming this way," Gil Bass of Hol den Beach Fishing Pier said Mon day. "So they should be here in a few weeks." Last week. Bass said anglers pulled in a few spots along with flounder, pompano and whiting. "It has picked up a little bit," Bass said. "It's just beginning to im prove." Fishermen were catching some large spots Monday morning at Sunset Beach Pier, said manager id Kayler. "They're catching a few out there This Week's Tide Table AUGUST HIGH LOW Day DM* AM. ML AJM. WW.
