Secret Drum Hotline report came in last night and the news was good.
Multiple OBX DrumPros are at the top of the Leader Board. Big numbers and strangely the same folks as in years past are the ones putting in the work. One thing that is different this year is that Hatteras Pro's used the "Local" card and thus the Pro at the top of this page has been relegated to also ran status, until Dare County eases its Visitor restrictions.
When you are sheltered in place at the Secret Spot, you might be missing income, but you sure are not missing the crowd, although if everyone is bowed up at the same time, at a certain Secret Spot known only to several million it is impossible to practice social distancing.
Without a Vaccine, without a cure, I am not sure how Dare County is planning to implement an easing of out of town visitors, the same set of circumstances exist today as the day they shut it down.
Thinking about building a custom 9' 10 WT Saltwater Fly Rod. The REC reel seat and fighting butt cost as much as the Blank I am looking at. may build a 4 WT too while I am at it. But first I have a SurfStick #1 Clone by All Star that has sat stripped of its guides for the last two months, that I have not even started the underwraps on.
I am blessed that I can work remotely, pretty much the entire OBX does not have that luxury and for some this Storm will force them off the Beach. For others it will make them more resolute.
