The Morning of a trip begins before the sunrises and The Captain of the DrumStick is always amped and ready to go with the excitement of a huge catch in mind.
The sun begins a slow rise and proceeds to increase speed rising as we continue on our way to the spot the Captain can feel in his bones the fish are hanging out.

As we continue toward a place in the middle of the open ocean the Mate prepares the bait.

Upon arriving at the destination the first lines are hit hard.

Within minutes the first Dolphin (Mahi) Gaffer is thrown aboard and in the box.

Minutes later another line starts screaming and its fish on again.

Another Gaffer in the boat.

While one is being Gaffed in the boat another hits the bait and is fought in toward the boat.

Another Gaffed and in the boat.

Another Victory at Sea.

The catch is thrown out to the docks and displayed for all the Marina patrons to see before they are cleaned and put on ice. Just another day in the life of a Charter on Ocracoke Island.
