Flyfishing the OBX

No comments yet

This summer was my first time saltwater fly fishing at the Outer Banks, NC. It was a lot tougher than I thought it would be, and over a week and a half, I only caught two fish, on the last day. I did have some fish chasing a gurgler early on - Spanish Mackerel I think, but the one I hooked broke the line. It was frustrating, humbling, but new and exciting nonetheless. I learned a lot my on my first trip, and I look forward to the next one...

Thanks to my son for doing his version of me whining about bad fishing there at the end. :)

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
