Ocean Isle & Sunset Beach Fishing report

Steady Catching!

Posted on 06/09/2014

Well, the first week of the summer season is in the books, and thankfully we had some decent fishing throughout the week.  The flounder continued to produce the most consistent fishing, as they have been biting well, and the keeper to throwback (undersize) ratio has improved also.  We have caught fish up to 4lbs. in the past week, but there have been quite a few 5+ lb. doormats caught in the area recently.  The trout have also made a good showing, as we have been catching some really nice ones up to 4.5lbs or so while flounder fishing.  This is a great sign, and with trout season opening next week, I expect good fishing for them once we start targeting them directly.  The redfish also continue to bite well in and around the area, but they have seemed to be a little more hard headed than the other target species recently, biting well one day and not the next.  All in all, the summer is getting off to a good start, with plenty of good fishing to come.  I still have some openings for the rest of the month, but they continue to fill up quickly, so give me a call if you would like to get in on the action!
