What anglers said about fishing in North Carolina

We would have liked to catch a few more species and only got two spanish mackerel in the boat. The bite was light and three got off the hook. Tommy worked super hard to keep us on the fish and I think we got a better catch than you'd be fair to expect.

It's called fishing not catching. Enjoy the camaraderie and the memories, and hopefully you'll come away with a good fishing story to boot

Head out in the morning before the heat sets in. 6am is early but worth it as the fish start disappearing later in the morning.

The Neuse River and Trent River region is vast so there are many different locations to choose from. It’s helpful if guide is familiar with the best fishing spots at the moment, and ever fish movements throughout the day!

Due to the weather the sound wasn't as clear as normal and with the water temperature high the fish were a bit lazy to bite, but not horrible. Still an amazing day on the water.
