Fishing in July was hot. Be ready for the sun and wear appropriate clothing and sunscreen. Also be ready to have a great day on the ocean.

heat of summer is not the best fishing. Better fishing in June and fall but my guests could only be here in July.

Bring a six cord and sunscreen and a cooler of drinks and snacks. Going with Cody and Holden is making good choices.

Check the weather we lucked out it was towards the end of a bad weather week and got to go it was still bumpy out on the water but still had a great experience

We had a perfect weather day. Saw lots of bait balls. Spanish Mackerel were flashing all over. Was the final day of Big Rock tournament so the marina was very active and fun.

Be prepared for weather to change on you but May is great for Mahi and may still find some Wahoo around. If you are wanting to target Blue Marlin this is a good place to do so.

Use fishingbooker.com to schedule your trip. The reviews and the selection of trips really helps the process.

Check with the locals before booking a trip. The charter boats will not tell you if the fishing sucks.

Still recovering from Hurricane Florence (and Michael!) but fishing is great! Try the boats or fish from pier or surf!

Thomas Richards
Only trip i have taken and the fish were pretty small on top of a slow day fishing.

It's a great fishing destination. Spring and fall seasons are much better than summer.

Book a charter with a team of local fisherman for the most likely enjoyable fishing outcome.
