Month: August 2013

The Sharks are still around but the Spanish Mackerel have gotten small.  With the steady shark action I guess the Spanish can take a back seat for a while.  Get ready for what looks like to be a great fall with the water temps around 77 now.

Well after an awesome week of weather the fishing could not have been any better.  We caught everything that we set our goals out to catch which was a wide range of fish from 1 ft or water to 150ft.  The Red Drum, Black Drum Speckeled Trout and Flounder provided steady action in the Backwater behind Bald Head Island.  The Spanish Mackerel and Shark Fishing has been hot on the Nearshore trips off Oak Island NC.  The offshore fishing is steady as always with Blackbass everywhere while we are targeting Big Scamps groupers.  Just remember Backwater to Bluewater we got you covered.

Over the last week we have dodged rain for the last 4 days but it did not stop us from catching some fish.  The flounder bite has really picked up and perfect timing since the drum slowed down a little.  The Sharks are still around also but this week should produce great catches for all the charters.  Camera is on the boat and I will upload sometime this week.

We just had a beautiful week here at Oak Island followed up by some great Catching.  The Shark bite has been on fire and provided lots of action for the customers with comments like “who needs to watch shark week”.   Spanish Mackerel are here 1 trip but gone the 2nd but we are still catching them just have to make big moves to find the fish.  Live baiting for Spanish have produces some huge 6-7lb class fish also.  Backwater fishing has slowed down some with the water getting hotter but the fish should pick back up soon.

 

The Red Drum are still around and the flounder are picking up the pace also in the backwater behind Bald Head Island.  The nearshore is still producing Spanish Mackerel and they are all on top of the water while we are catching them then you look around they are gone.  The Big Spinner Sharks are chewing with each group catching 5-10 pushing 100lbs looks like a fun week with great weather coming up.

 

Sorry for the delays but we have been busy putting smiles on all the Charters faces here at Oak Island.  The Red Drum seem to be everywhere with a Flounder and Trout mixed in on almost every trip. The Blacktip Sharks have been very easy to catch with every trip catching 10+ on our 1/2 day Nearshore trip.  Come on down and see what its all about.
