Barring a direct hit, you may well be fine. The swells from this next hurricane are forecast to be at their peak Sat and Sunday, then drop off very fast (unless the next storm in line becomes an issue). By Tues night or Weds I would think the water will be fishable and the fish may be making up for lost time. I don't know about numbers of fish, but I think your chances at a special fish are not ridiculous. Those big fish off Block and Fishers will have moved somewhere as water temps peak, and most years they end up around Cutty......even if August was off this year. Good luck.

Went by today and the water was nice. Fish are close enough in good numbers and size.

Not the best tide IMO, you will have low water most of the late night. You can still catch but the place is a much better place when the near shore boulders are covered. I like your choice of mid-week though, (that is when I visit...weekends are a joke nowadays with all the yahoos that swarm the place, yet another fishing destination headed to be ruined by the masses, thanks in part to TV/magazine/web publicity)

Also you could be in for some dirty water from these storms and weed along with a slew of lobster pots in the surf from the storms. I would wait a month if you could.

That said, it is a beautiful place and you will have a great time no matter what the fishing.
be safe and good luck
