FISHING REPORT

 09-22-17

 

The last few days back in the sounds has been pretty good fishing.  Went to the Pamlico Sound yesterday, fished from 1 to 4 pm and went 5 for 6 bites on old drum with Bob Baldwin. These were Bob's first encounter with the old drum. There are still slot drum back in the marshes as well as a good number of speckled trout.  Along the beach we are now starting to see false albacore show up on bait pods.  There are also still good numbers of Spanish mackerel and bluefish around.  Farther offshore the king mackerel are doing well around some of the rocks and reefs along with amberjacks.  The wahoo bite continues to be good offshore from the Swansboro Hole to the Big Rock.
