April can be a very productive fishing month in Eastern North Carolina. Warming water temperatures bring bait out of their winter holdings and the drum are right behind them. We target mostly red drum, black drum and speckled trout in April. I prefer using live bait but we do use artificial lures when conditions present themselves. Book a trip in April for a great day on the water!

Early March is really when the spring fishing starts to kick off in Eastern North Carolina. The warmer the better in March. We are typically targeting red drum and black drum in the Cape Fear region/ Carolina Beach area. We also stumble across some striped bass when fishing the upper part of the Cape Fear River. We do mostly bait fish but these fish will attack artificial lures on the right days and conditions. Book your trip today with Grand Slam Inshore Fishing Charters!

Redfish bite is pretty good in late august and september. Most fish are being caught on live mullet minnows. Book you trip today!
