According to Capt. Rob Orr on the Fishin' Topsail blog the weather temperature and the water temperature have made major jumps in the right direction and improved fishing is the forecast.

Hi,
The Holiday Boat Flotilla is still being held on the Friday after Thanksgiving. This year that would be November 27th. It will once again start at Channel Bend and go to the Assembly Building. The boats coming from North Topsail Beach and Surf City will meet at the Beach House Marina and travel to Channel Bend to form the parade. To find the time it will get to the Assembly Building please contact David Luther 328-1621 or Dave Gardner 328-3474, or watch for announcements in the papers. This is still in the planning stage.

This past Sunday my younger son and I went out for a bike ride checking out the latest happenings in Sneads Ferry. It was a very pleasant day with warmer temperatures and a regular breeze so we made our way towards the waterfront and the marinas. Looking out over the Intracoastal Waterway (ICWW) was spectacular seeing the islands including Topsail Island and North Topsail Beach.
As usual, the people were quite friendly and waved often from homefronts, cars and boardwalks. Nearly everywhere we went, people went out of their way to say "Hello" and wish us a good day. It reminded me just how lucky we are to live in a small waterfront community in Eastern North Carolina.
The following are just a few pictures from our ride which took us down to Swan Point Marina and the surrounding housing areas. Click on the pictures to see a larger view of each. Enjoy!
As an American citizen who has served in the military, I often hear the pros and cons of the current fighting around the world including opinions about our government leaders. What seems to be forgotten is the soldiers.
I would like to take a moment to say thanks for every one who serves this nation and also congratulations to the new Veterans of Foreign Wars North Carolina Post 9983 Topsail Island Post.
There are pictures, meeting information and contact details regarding the new Topsail Island Post online at http://vfwwebcom.org/nc/post9983/10088/Welcome+to+VFW+Post+9983-The+New+Topsail+Island+Post.html.
If you are an eligible veteran, I would encourage you to check out the new post and join. If not, I would ask you to think about those who protect our freedoms even with their very lives. Maybe that is worth a "Thank You" from time to time.
