Category: Nearshore Fishing

The first nearshore trip was tough this morning just like yesterday, we saw plenty of sharks behind the Shrimp boat but could only manage one good one.  I moved the second trip to the evening and went to a calm spot where the fish was stacked up.  We landed 8 nice sharks and lost a Blacktip that put on a show for us by jumping out of the water over and over.  Looking at the Heat, Wind and over all tough fishing on my end I might ride out the next few days till the weather gets right again.

Today Oak Island Fishing Charters started out looking for Spanish Mackerel but they were few and far between.  So with time left we started Shark Fishing and it did not take long before we had a big one jumping around and broke our wire.  We finally landed several nice blacktips then headed to the house.

Oak Island Fishing Charters had two nearshore trips today and they could not have been any different.  The first trip caught some spanish and had 4 good shark run only landing one.  The second trip landed 4 sharks anywhere from 4ft to 100 plus

Oak Island Fishing Charters did really good today on both Nearshore fishing trips.  The Spanish Mackerel were the fish of choice today.  Hopefully the rest of the week will stay steady.

Oak Island Fishing Charters had a 1/2 day trip this morning looking for Sharks.  First thing we need was some fresh Spanish Mackerel and that did not take long.  Once we put the lines in we were catching Sharks.  We caught several nice Blacktips and a Hammerhead.

Oak Island Fishing Charters had a 1/2 day adventure this morning chasing down Spanish Mackerel.  It did not take long to fill up on Spanish so then we went Shark fishing.  Just like the Spanish the Sharks started jumping on our baits till it was time to go home.  We landed several nice Hammerheads and Blacktips hope fishing stays like this.

Oak Island Fishing Charters went looking for Spanish Mackerel and Sharks on both trips today.  The first trip was tough, we caught a few Spanish and zero sharks so we headed in early.  Now on the second trip it was a different ocean as soon as we put the lines in we started picking at the Spanish steady.  After the Spanish trip was complete it was time to do the shark thing.  We landed several Blacktip sharks including one around 100lbs so this goes to show you never know what or when the fishing will be the best but  one thing is for sure you will not catch them at the house.

Oak Island Fishing Charters had 2 1/2 day trips and both had success cathing Spanish Mackerel and Sharks.  On the first trip we caught the Spanish half way down the beach and we spent the last hours catching blacktip sharks up to 50 pounds.  On the afternoon trip we found the Spanish Mackerel off Bald Head Island jumping everwhere and after a while they just disappeared so we went Shark Fishing.  The sharks this afternoon were big up 80 plus pounds and at the end of the day everyone went home with plenty to eat and Big Fish stories to tell.  We will be in the Backwater all day tomorrow.

Today Oak Island Island Fishing Charters made it back out into the ocean after the wind has kept us from fishing.  The Spanish Mackerel bite was real slow for us today but once we started Shark Fishing it all changed.  After boating several nice 50 plus pound blacktip Sharks we were out o it was time to go home
