As of October 16, 2024, the fishing scene in the Atlantic Ocean off North Carolina is buzzing with activity. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on...
mostra di più**Weather and Tides:**
Today is expected to be sunny and clear, with an air temperature of around 74 degrees. The ocean water temperature is a comfortable 75 degrees. Winds are blowing at a moderate 9 mph from the west-northwest. High tides are at 2:24 AM and 3:24 PM, while low tides are at 8:52 AM and 9:24 PM.
**Fish Activity:**
Yesterday saw a flurry of activity across various species. Anglers caught several bluefish, Spanish mackerel, and even some triggerfish. Red drum and speckled trout are also making strong appearances, particularly in the sound, haystacks, and up the rivers. Nearshore, false albacore fishing has been phenomenal, with these fish often surfacing and then quickly diving.
**Catches:**
Bluefish, ranging from 8 to 14 pounds, are hanging around the beaches and nearshore structure. Spanish mackerel are showing up in better numbers, often mixed with schools of false albacore. Speckled trout are being caught in the backs of creeks and areas off the Newport and North rivers, with live shrimp being the bait of choice. Red drum, including some citation-size fish, are being targeted in areas like Adams Creek and the lower Neuse River.
**Best Lures and Bait:**
For speckled trout and red drum, live shrimp are highly effective. Topwater baits like Spooks or popping corks rigged with live bait, cut bait, or scented artificials on jig heads are also working well. For false albacore and Spanish mackerel, small jigs such as Hogy Epoxy Minnows and Big Nic Spanish Candies are recommended. Bluefish are biting on a variety of lures, but natural and live baits are also successful.
**Hot Spots:**
Head to the areas around Cape Lookout for a chance at catching false albacore and Spanish mackerel. The shoals off Cape Lookout are also home to a lot of bluefish. For inshore fishing, target the backs of creeks and areas off the Newport and North rivers for speckled trout and red drum. Running up Adams Creek into the Neuse River is also producing slot-sized red drum and black drum.
With these conditions and tips, you're set for a great day of fishing in the Atlantic Ocean off North Carolina. Good luck and tight lines
