The wahoo bite is good and some blackfin tuna and sailfish are in the mix.
Hi Folks,
It seems things are getting very close to normal again which means great fall fishing. Here’s my report:
INSHORE: Good catches of reds, flounder and trout; Artificials, live shrimp and other live bait are all catching fish.
NEAR SHORE: Bluefish are everywhere and some false albacore are around as well. Gray trout and flounder are biting jigs at the near shore reefs.
OFFSHORE: Plenty of king mackerel with most boats limiting on their trips. Lots of bottom fish including grouper are biting. And for jiggers amberjack are providing big action.
GULF STREAM: The wahoo bite is good and some blackfin tuna and sailfish are in the mix.
CAPE FEAR RIVER: All the usual suspects; red, flounder and trout, are biting. Sea mullet and croakers are biting in the south river.
UPCOMING: It’s going to get better and better, especially for trout in the coming weeks.
UNTIL NEXT TIME>>>LET”S GO FISHING!!!
