What anglers said about fishing in North Carolina

I've done a couple of inshore trips and they've always been productive. Keep in mind that your captain can't control the fishing, some days are better than others. Also the weather plays a factor on what is bitting.

Check with your captain, and consider booking a longer trip if the big fish are being caught further from shore so that you'll have time to get out there and get 'em!

Do some research on the do’s and don’ts ahead of time and ask questions of your captain if you have them. Don’t get disappointed if things start a little slow, it will pick up and the captains know how to find the fish. They of course can’t always get them to come up and get hooked.

The half day trip was perfect for our first timers, especially my son who got a little sea sick and had to come back about an hour early.

There are loads of fish out there- you just have to use the correct set up for the fish you want. Ex: shrimp for the bottom feeders (croaker, blue, pinfish), minnows - lure trolling for Spanish mackerel. Check with the guides for details.
