Hatteras offers a unique opportunity to target tripletail in the nutrient-rich waters of the Outer Banks. The Gulf Stream's proximity brings warm water and pelagic species close to shore, attracting tripletail that often associate with floating debris and weed lines. Focus your efforts in Pamlico Sound and along the nearshore waters of the Atlantic. Late summer and early fall are the peak seasons, when the water temperatures are warmest. One local tip is to pay close attention to crab pot buoys, as these are prime holding spots. Another key to success is matching your lure presentation to the prevalent baitfish in the area. The tripletail around Hatteras are known to grow to impressive sizes, often exceeding 10 pounds, and their aggressive behavior makes for exciting fishing.
