The King Mackerel fishing will soon be starting to heat up, with the warming waters coming in close to the beach. They will first be present about 40 miles off, and continue to move closer throughout the year. These fish will start off being cookie cutters around 8-12 lbs., but will show up in June and July as the larger 20-30 lb fish and will stay here until November. We will target these fish using dead cigar minnows, as well as assorted species of live bait. Call and book your trip today for the heart-pounding and reel-screaming action provided by the King Mackerel.

The inshore fishing has been good the last few weeks and shows evidence that the spring season is fastly approaching. The Red Drum have been present in and around the creeks, as well as making a good showing in the surf around Topsail Beach. The Virgina Mullet have arrived in the Cape Fear River, and will provide family fun for anyone, as well as a good meal at the end of the day. Speckled Trout are also being caught in the surrounding areas, and are ready to bite artificals like Gulp, or Trout Killers, and live bait when available. The flounder will beign showing up at the end of may, alsong with some other inshore species.
