Bite continues to heat up with climbing water temps. Flounder bite has been pretty consistent with decent fish in the 2-3lb range. Some triple tails are showing up in the river. Big, oversized redfish and some larger black drum have also been showing up regularly in good numbers.

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!

With water temps back up into the 60's fish are turning in the feed bag once again . Finding big schools of redfish in the intracoastal waterway that can be targeted with both artificial and live bait . Black drum are showing up in good number with some being over 20 lbs . Trout are still feeding well on the tops and bottoms of the tide . Sheepshead have been a good bet around structure and jetties as well.

Nearshore bite for fall has been off to a solid start.
False Albacore, and really nice bluefish in topwater plugs with a consistent King Mackerel bite. Grey Trout and whiting showing up good work Spanish Mackerel still around perhaps for the next few weeks. Backwater bite is hot as well work good numbers of shrimp around Redfish have been plentiful with more and more Speckled Trout showing up each week. Lots of good quality fishing. It's really shaping up to be a great fall bite.

Fishing has been really good out of the Morehead area. Inshore red drum have been loading up on shrimp, watching them bust working down the banks has been a lot of fun, mix in black drum and speckled trout with them. Near shore 1-3 lb bluefish, Spanish, and false albacore have been blitzing up and down the beach. Albacore aren't much table fare in my opinion but a damn good fight on light tackle! Bottom fishing is producing some spots, grey trout, hogfish, and puffers with the water temps getting cooler

    We had the best morning with Justin! He was friendly, engaging, and provided a lot of education on the area, the water, the fish, and fishing. We got to explore many different parts of the river to ensure we had ample opportunities to catch both speckled trout and red drum. We also followed a pod of porpoises, which was a fun diversion. Justin cleaned our fish at the end of our excursion which we took home and prepared that evening for dinner. Delicious fish tacos thanks for Justin's guidance and navigation! We look forward to returning to the area and having Justin take us out for another fabulous adventure.
