September 22 Fishing Report

Much of the same continues. The Red drum bite continues to be great. Lots of middle to overslot fish. We are landing them on everything. Live baits, spinnerbaits, topwaters, etc. The speckled trout bite has turned on a bit with alot of 1-2lb fish being caught mainly on live baits. The spanish mackerel bite also continues to be pretty good with some false albacore starting to show up.

Mom and Dads anniversiary

I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with my parents this past week. It was thier 33rd anniversiary and we spent the afternoon doing a little site seeing and enjoying a nice late lunch in downtown Swansboro. Of course we had to check a few drum holes and we were able to wrap the afternoon up with some nice reds. I am truly blessed to have such wonderful parents.

Sept. 13 Fishing Report

The Red Drum (redfish) bite remains the best right now. We are still finding all sizes of fish in the marshes behind the barrier islands. We are landing the fish on topwaters, spinnerbaits, and live baits. We have also been finding a few nice flounders inside around the areas that are holding reds. Live baits on carolina rigs and scented soft plastics will usually get the job done on the flatfish. The good news is speckled trout have started to heat up as well. We have caught a few right here in the Swansboro area and I have heard some good reports from the Neuse and New rivers. Most fish have been caught on live shrimp and mullets but your favorite mirrolure or grub should get the job done also.

The spanish bite outside has still been pretty steady with lots of action from 2-6lb fish. There are some kings in the mix but the king bite reamins a bit slow. It should fire up as we work our way into the month of October.

Sept 2 Fishing Report

The Red Drum bite continues to be stellar. We are landing good numbers of middle to overslot fish on live baits and scented softplastics. The flounder bite seems to be a bit slow with a few keeper fish being found in the marshes and internal structure. We are still finding a few nice 2-3lb trout in the creek mouths behind the barrier islands. The trout bite should continue to improve as we push into fall.

Nearshore the big Spanish mackerel bite continues to be pretty solid with lots of 2-4lb fish with a few 5-7lb fish mixed in. The king mackerel bite is still pretty slow but I expect it to pick back up as we get deeper in the month of September.
