Going to take the boat down to Hatteras this Sat and looking at the weather, I am wondering if I should go on the outside or take it down the Intercoastal. Or should I wait until next weekend (have to work all week) and then hope the weather improves for an outside trip so I can fish also. Will be leaving from York River........

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

It all depends on wind direction. It can actually be easier going the outside close to the beach with a west wind. The sound can chop up a bit and is slower going, especially at night. On the outside you can troll for Spanish on the way down. Brine a few of them for marlin baits. The rest will make a great evening meal on your first night there. Most of the restuarants down there will fix them up anyway you like.
