Cape Fear Guide Fishing black drum biting

Article by: Cape Fear Guide Fishing Report

I ran my first charter of the 2009 Spring fishing season on April 8 finding the black drum biting well on shrimp fishing on the bottom. Mike, Blaine, and Evan Wasson were on their first ever fishing trip,  they were seeing the black drum come in the boat steady for about and hour,great to see first time anglers catching fish.

Hello John, I will be in Carolina Beach Oct 1st to Oct 12th on vacation. I am hoping to go out on a charter. Nice pictures from the 19th. Would enjoy a trip catching Drum and Speckled Trout. What is the cost of a trip to do that ? Or how much are your charter trips ? Thanks in advance for your response..

Coming down in a couple of weeks. Planning on alot of surf fishing and some inlet. Was wondering what has been the hot bite and any suggestions for flounder from surf( rigs, artificial or live and what approach). Thanks for the time in advance
