Affordable Charters Fishing Report

Still a few Virginia mullet, black drum, small puppy drum, & a few speckled trout caught in the surf at Carolina Beach. Waterways & river speckled trout, some nice size striped bass, catfish, red drum, black drum, black bass & Virginia mullet.

Fishing tip of the week: This past week we’ve had very good catches of small red & black drum. Hopefully this is a good indication for lots of larger drum this spring & summer. Keep fishing & stay safe.

Inshore red drum, speckled trout, a few gray trout, some small Virginia mullet, striped bass, catfish, some small black bass, tautog, sheepshead, & black drum.

On the surf speckled trout, red drum, Virginia mullet, & bluefish.

Piers are closed for the winter so no report until spring when they reopen.

Fishing tip of the week: Speckled trout fishing is a lot of fun. They can be very finicky at times. If you catch 2 or 3 trout and then they stop biting, try switching to different combinations of lures.

This strategy worked well for me this past week. The Brunswick river has some nice size speckled trout & striped bass around the bridge. Keep fishing & stay safe.
