The crowds have thinned this time of year and the water is crystal clear. Now is the time to sight fish for redfish. For something different there is always Stripers on the Cape Fear. Don't let the weather keep you inside. This is my favorite time of year for technical fishing.

I know that Christmas has passed and few, if any, think about fishing. For the brave souls out there who are willing to put on some warm clothes it is a great time. The crowds have thinned out and the fish will still cooperate with the patient angler. Come enjoy a day on the water, relax with the slower pace of winter.

The temperature is hot but the fishing has been good. Spanish, kings, blues and flounder have been off the beach. Inshore the red drum have been biting with aome regularity and should do better as we get closer to the fall
