- Seahawk Inshore Fishing Report 6/30/09 Red Drum + Flounder + Speckled Trout = Carolina Inshore Slam - Posted to Seahawk Charters Fishing Report by Gillwetter Press
The inshore fishing has been good lately with catches of red drum, speckled trout, flounder,sheephead, bluefish, and spanish mackerel.
The redfish bite has been solid with most of the fish around the 26 to 27 inch mark. Sightcasting to these fish in a foot of water is some of the funnest fishing you can do inshore. We have been catching the reds by sightcasting and blindcasting artificials. We are also fishing live baits on float rigs and carolina rigs around the marsh edges and shelly bottoms in the creeks and bays of the lower Cape Fear river.
We have been catching.. (Read More)- Fishing Report 6-29-2009 Live Bait - Posted to LiveLine Charters Fishing Report by Gillwetter Press
Had a group of guys in town from Pittsburgh, Pa. and it was their 1st time deep sea fishing. The weather was OK with a SW swell. Left the dock with 2 live wells full of pogies. Started around 10 miles and had great action on small kings and a couple of teenagers. After everyone had warmed up with the kings we headed off shore for a work out. The guys were not disappointed and caught plenty of AJs. They were holding close to the wrecks so we lost a lot of fish. Once again a nice bonus with..

Hi Folks,
It’s been a while and I apologize. I have been busier than usual and have neglected telling you about all the fish that are biting. What would you like to catch? Flounder and reds… their biting. Spanish macks… their biting. Kings and mahi… their biting. There are even some sailfish around and I haven’t gone out of the sight of land yet! Be sure to check out the new pics on my photo page. Now here’s my report:
Inshore: I have never seen so much bait. Menhaden are just about everywhere and they.. (Read More)- Topsail & Surf City Outdoors-Fishing Report 6-22-09 - Posted to Headhunter Outdoors Report by Gillwetter Press
Hi folks, Capt. David with this weeks fishing report. If it swims it's biting folks! The sound has plenty of Redfish that are more than willing to bite and the Flounder are in as well. A lot of the Flounder are on the small side but some keepers are around. The Reds are scattered all along the waterway flats and back up in the marsh creeks and will knock a topwater bait out of the water. Cut bait or live bait will work too.
The surf is happening too. Pompano, Red and Black Drum, Flounder, Sheepshead around the pier pilings,.. (Read More)- Cobia, Mahi, AJ’s, Kings, Citation Flounder, its all HERE! - Posted to Reel-Adventure Charters Fishing Report by Capt. Matt Wirt
WOW!!! is the only word to describe the fishing between this report and the last one. The last report was hard to beat and this report will do just that……with ease!
Offshore: The king mackerel, cobia and mahi are biting well on the live menhaden that seem to be everywhere! The amberjack bite has slowed a bit. This might be a good thing because I dont know how much more amberjack my reel drags could take!
Inshore: The redfish are biting well around the docks and these are upper and over slot fish. These fish are nailing the huge live menhaden.. (Read More)- Liveline Charters 2009 - Mahi! - Posted to LiveLine Fishing Videos by Gillwetter Press

Hello folks, I hope everyone is doing well. The weather has really turned to the summer trend in the last few days. We’ve had some good fishing weather; hot temps and light winds. The fishing has been pretty hot it’s self! With that said; here is the fishing report>>>
We have been looking for Cobia on a lot of my trips lately and we’ve had some success. This last week we caught three, kept one and released two. They were not the biggest cobia I’ve seen around lately but, still very good eating! Most..

Carolina Beach fishing is finely starting to turn on with live bait everywhere. Despite the boat traffic on Memorial Day Weekend I was able to take out some great customers and put them on some nice Speckled Trout and Flounder. I’ll let the pictures below say the rest.

Surprise, Surprise
The old adage of calm seas never made a skillful sailor certainly applied to Captain Logan of Standing Down Charters,
Holden Beach NC on Saturday’s trip out to the

Within 8 miles of the destination Capt Logan called for the Black Bart Lures to be.. (Read More)- NC Mountain Elk - Posted to Cape Fear Guide Fishing Report by Capt. Mike Dennis

Awww….the sound of multiple reels screaming as each rod doubles over when your bait spread is suddenly ambushed by a school of Yellowfin Tuna……or how bout a monster Wahoo skyrocketing on an outrigger bait and burning 300yds of line off of a 50 wide……better yet, the beautiful yellow, green, and blue colors of a Mahi-Mahi as it jumps to free itself from the end of your line…..

Well it is time to start talking about winter time striper trips. As most of you know, the striper fishing out of Oregon Inlet over the past two winters has not been up to par. There were some fish around, but nothing like it used to be. The main body of fish have been staying off Virginia Beach due to the unusually warm winters we have had. With this in mind we have decided to have a boat.. (Read More)- Young Carolina Beach Angler Verses Blue Fish - Posted to Cape Fear Guide Videos by Gillwetter Press

The fishing has been good and thankfully I have been busy. I want to thank all of my repeat clients for coming down in the fall and over the Holidays to enjoying the great fall/winter fishing. Winter fishing has arrived with speckled trout, striped bass, and red drum. Most of the fish have been caught on artificial lures and live bait. Everyone has enjoyed the new trolling motor, It allows us to cover lots of ground and makes lure fishing a blast.
Now is the time to book your Winter or Spring Carolina Beach Fishing Charter. Call 910-264-1807 to book.. (Read More)
