Spring temps have fish moving in from offshore. Inshore jigging can produce grey trout, bluefish, puffers, and sheepshead. Inshore red drum are schooled up in the marshes, casting artificials has been the most effective method

Things are warming up here at Wrightsville beach and wilmingtonmaria. Some spring bluefish have arrived but still catching a mixed bag of speckle drought and flounder. Anglers can expect the arrival of the Atlantic Bonita to come storming on to our beach fronts. Allowing anglers a nice spring kickoff to have their string pulled and their drag Squealed. The spanish mackerel should be right behind them. All insurance fishing should improve greatly in the next couple weeks with rising water temperatures.

Sheepshead, black drum, and blue fish are on the jetties, with grey trout and sea mullet starting to show up in the inlet. Reds are schooled up inside,
Water is getting warmer every day looking like a great spring

Weather has been pretty good for the most part, super clear water, really fun to sight fish, chasing reds in shallows, and bottom fishing jetty's for black drum and sheepshead. March should be great!

Catfishing has been very good drifting with cut bait. We are starting to get ready to start doing striper fishing casting jigs and don't forget the phenomenal shad fishery that will be coming up here in the next month will be excellent this year with big numbers with the river being high from all the rain we have received

We had the absolute best time ever. We got out there and went straight at it. Whether it was catching blues, Spanish and even sharks. It was amazing.
If you’re looking to have the best experience fishing, this is your guy.
We come every year here, this was our first time doing a charter. Needless to say we will be doing one with captain 🧑✈️ Jeff every single year from here on out.
Very knowledgeable guide who puts you on fish. Very nice guide who is an absolute pleasure to fish with. I definitely will book again with Jeff. You will not be disappointed with Jeff.
Great day on the water, Captain Kevin and First Mate Drew took care of everything and were very knowledgeable. We caught a number of fish including 27” Spanish Mackerel and 40”, 28 lb King Mackerel.
Trey was priceless in helping us out in a pinch! We had scheduled our company trip with another fishing charter, who ended up canceling on us last minute. Trey went above and beyond to help us find another charter in time! Our experience with Captain Shane out of Morehead NC was absolutely outstanding! They took care of us in every way making sure we all had an exciting day catching all kinds of fish and getting it all ready to take home with us. We will definitely use Trey with Captain Experience when booking our next Charter! Thank you Trey for your attention to our unique situation, we wouldn’t have pulled it off without you!

Captain Drew took us out on a fantastic half day inshore trip. I took my son (9 y/o) and one of my buddies from college. His boat was super clean and well equipped for our charter. He had all the tackle we needed for successful time on the water. This guy knows how to fish: within 10 minutes of getting to our first spot, we already had a fish on the line: an over slot red drum. The second drum was a keeper and Drew kindly fileted it for us afterward (red drum grilled on the half shell is now one of my favorites). We moved to a few different spots throughout the morning and all together we caught about 9 fish. We let all but one go. Captain Drew really knows these waters and he was able to cater to more novice anglers and kids (my son and i) as well as more experienced anglers (my buddy) on the same trip. If i make it back to the carolina coast again, I would absolutely book Captain Drew
