Carpenter, if those winds come, the area south of cape point will likely clear up first. However sooner or later it will probably cause up welling to occur. This will bring cooler water from the bottom shoreward to replace the water that the wind pushes offshore. Usually this water is pretty murky and it is possible that it might be as bad or worse than trying to fish what is there now. I would think that the strong north west wind would cause the cooler water at Nags Head to migrate south. Not being totally up on the situation I would be inclined to give the folks at red drum tackle or one of the other tackle shops in the area a call and see how they think the weather will affect things. They make their living at the mercy of such events. If the wind was light out of the NW I would say go and take plenty of coolers and plan on south of the point. If the wind really blows you might get into clean water on Frisco pier the first day or two but I really doubt it. This year the wind has been out and back between bad and worse it seems. I'm sorry to sound so dismal and all but I would go ahead and pay for the call to the experts before I got too excited about going. You might get lucky or it might be bad. Usually a strong wind blowing offshore will add sand from the dunes to the water also. Just pray for lt NW wind. AL
