Beautiful Weather and Great Fishing!!!

We have had some nice weather here in southeastern N.C. with temps in the 70’s. The water temps have gone up a few degrees and the fish have responded. It is supposed to get cold for a couple of days and then back into the 70’s so this trend should continue. The fishing is going to be good over the Christmas holidays!

The redfish bite has been really good lately. We are catching them on artificial and live baits around dock pilings, shellbeds, and oyster rocks. There are also some large shools of reds on the flats when the tide and wind cooperates. We are also finding some smaller schools of nice reds in the creeks on low water.

There are also good numbers of speckled trout in the river,around the inlets, and the creeks. We are catching the specs on live shrimp, artificial shrimp under a popping float, and grubs.

The striped bass are also in the upper parts of the Cape Fear river above Wilmington.

The fishing is going to be good over the holidays. If you would like to get out there give me a call. Check out some of the photos from the past couple of weeks.

The inshore fishing continues to be really good with catches of speckled trout, red drum, and a few striped bass.

We have had some excellent of redfish using artificials around shellbeds, oyster rocks, and dock pilings. We have had several days where we have caught 40 to 60 fish. Most are 15″ to 18″ with a few 24″ to 26″ fish mixed in. We are also catching some larger reds on the flats sightcasting artificials in 8″ to 12″ of water when the tides and wind cooperates.

The speckled trout bite has been good also around the inlets and in the river. We are catching the specs on live shrimp, DOA shrimp, and the pink Storm Wild Eyed shrimp under a popping float has been really hot in the river.

Check out some of the photos from the past couple of weeks. There should be some great fishing for the next few weeks.
