Summer is winding down, and fall fishing is right around the corner! We've had a blast this summer catching speckled trout, red drum, flounder, Spanish mackerel, bluefish, and more. Historically, October, November, and December are some of the best fishing months around Wrightsville Beach, Wilmington, the Cape Fear River, and the surrounding beaches.
October brings our annual run of big bull redfish, with 40-inch-class fish commonly caught throughout the month, along with plenty of 18–27-inch slot fish. Speckled trout fishing also peaks in mid-to-late October, making for some great artificial-lure fishing.
While flounder season was too short to keep them...

While flounder season was too short to keep them this year, we'll still be catching some nice ones. Winter is also a great time to fish the area, with mild temperatures, lighter crowds, and excellent fishing during the warmest part of the day.

Sizzling, summer action at wrightsville and Carolina beaches here at Seagate. The summer is here in full effect, but fall is on the horizon and we are looking for cooling temperatures. The best fishing of the year, which follows summer from August to November is where the magic happens. Things start cooling off, the fishing gets good, and just, like always here. Mother nature dictates where we go. And what we do in the timing of all but the fishing will be good for flounder, Red Drum, and Speckled Trout to name a few.

Hi captain Jamie here. Anglers have enjoyed good fishing for red drum in the upper slot size and over in the last few weeks and should only get better with big spacing fish, "bulls" should follow along late August and into September. Flounder fishing is good now as well. People need to go ahead and book now for the 2 week season beginning Sept 1. At that time everyone goes home with a nice un!!! There is an early Morning speckled trout bite on topwater and then falls off but get great in the months to come and last all...

Summertime temps means sightcasting topwater plugs and spoons to large schools of redfish and that's exactly what we done today.
