- Seahawk Inshore Fishing Report 9/2/10 Fall fishing Coming on Strong!!! - Posted to Seahawk Charters Fishing Report by Gillwetter Press
The inshore fishing is good and getting better with catches of redfish, speckled trout, flounder, and sheephead. This is a great time of to get out there and get those inshore slams. There will be lots of good fishing oppurtunities coming up with cooler temps and less people on the water.
The redfish bite has been really good with lots of some drag screaming over the slot fish being caught this past week. The reds are schooled up on the flats, and some smaller schools are working the shellbanks in the creeks of the lower Cape Fear. We are catching..

Ran a combo trip with fellow Captain Rick Croson with local anglers. The ocean was flat with some swells from the storm off shore. Started in 140 feet and had action quickly. The AJs were hungry the 1st couple drifts and then shutdown. Moved out to 200 feet and had some good action with a few nice fish. We decided to troll to the deep drop and caught a couple nice Blackfins. The guys landed some large Almacos and then we found the big boys. We had a 55 inch and a 58..

Hi Folks,
Yes it is still hot and yes the fish are still biting. A little harder to find and a little picky, but they are there…waiting for your rod to sing. We have had good luck inshore and near shore as well.
Now here’s my report:
Inshore: Flounder are biting in most places including the river, hitting live bait and mostly in the rising tide. Reds are just the opposite…biting on the falling tide mostly and playing a little hide and seek.
Near Shore: Spanish mackerel are still a hit.. (Read More)- Family Fun in Carolina Beach - 8/10/10 - Posted to Charlie's Charters Fishing Report by Capt. Charles

Both inshore and near shore fishing will continue to get better with warmer air and water temps. To the fishing report>>>

Hi folks, Capt. David here with this weeks outdoors report. The water is warming and the weather is getting better. Maybe spring has finally sprung! The ocean water temps are in the mid 50's and it's warmer back in the sound. The Reds that stayed back in the sound are going to be found around the bays with a dark bottom. Just about all the bays behind are holding fish and all it takes is a good sunny day to turn them on. Spinnerbaits, topwaters and jigs will all work! They are hungry and will hit about anything! These.. (Read More)- Carolina Explorer Springtime Redfish Action is the cure for cabin fever!!!! - Posted to Carolina Explorer Charters Fishing Report by Gillwetter Press
Fished on the flats boat today with Robbie and Charles. We caught lots of redfish(18) on lures and sight casted to most of them. Robbie started off strong but Charles ended the day with the most fish caught. All of the fish were in the 20 to 24 inch range, just good slot sized fish. We are seeing lots of fish, the Redfish action is only going to get better with the warmer air and water temps. Now is the time to book your spring flats fishing trip. If I can help you with a Carolina Beach fishing charter or.. (Read More)- Shark and Spainsh Bite - Posted to Wilmington Fishing Charters by Capt. Richard Edwards

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….. That’s Holden Beach Gulf Stream Fishing at its finest aboard the Gamefisher III, a tournament rigged Ocean Master 31.

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
