  • Cooler Temps and Ideal Conditions for Fishing Off North Carolina's Atlantic Coast

    Cooler Temps and Ideal Conditions for Fishing Off North Carolina's Atlantic Coast
    Nov 10 2024
    As of November 10, 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 the water.

    ### Tidal and Weather Report
    Today, expect high tides at around 6:43 AM and 7:05 PM, with low tides at 12:36 PM. The winds are blowing from the northeast at about 10 knots, and the ocean temperature is a comfortable 70 degrees. The morning is sunny with light shore winds, making for ideal fishing conditions.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 6:43 AM, and sunset will be at 4:52 PM, giving you ample daylight to catch a variety of fish.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw a lot of action in the waters off Atlantic Beach and Carolina Beach. Anglers caught a mix of species including bluefish, Spanish mackerel, speckled trout, and red drum. The speckled trout action is picking up significantly as water temperatures cool down, with these fish staging up around deeper bridges and areas like the Haystacks or Newport River.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    - **Speckled Trout**: These are becoming more active as the water cools. Topwater plugs, hard suspending lures, and soft plastics are working well, especially around creek mouths and current lines[4][5].
    - **Red Drum**: Found in good numbers, these are striking soft plastics under popping corks or rigged on a jig head. Live shrimp or mullet on a Carolina rig are also effective, particularly around oyster rocks and other structures near creek mouths[4][5].
    - **Bluefish**: These are abundant, starting right outside the inlets and extending out to nearshore areas. Stingsilvers, Beach Bum lures, or other glass minnow style jigs are recommended[5].
    - **False Albacore**: These have been the star of the show, especially around Cape Lookout. Anglers are having success with fly setups or smaller metal jigs[5].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    - For speckled trout, use topwater plugs, hard suspending lures, and soft plastics.
    - For red drum, live shrimp or live/cut mullet are highly effective.
    - For bluefish, Stingsilvers and Beach Bum lures work well.
    - For false albacore, fly setups or smaller metal jigs are preferred.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Cape Lookout**: This area is hot for false albacore and bluefish, with schools of fish feeding on the surface.
    - **Cape Fear River**: The southern end of the river is producing a lot of flounder, speckled trout, red drum, and sheepshead. Creek mouths and current lines through deep holes are particularly productive[4].
    - **Haystacks or Newport River**: These areas are seeing increased speckled trout activity as the fish move into deeper waters[5].

    With the cooler temperatures and favorable tides, today promises to be an excellent day for fishing in the Atlantic Ocean off North Carolina. Make sure to check the local fishing reports and adjust your tactics accordingly to maximize your catch.

  • Atlantic Angler's Delight Off North Carolina's Coast

    Atlantic Angler's Delight Off North Carolina's Coast
    Nov 9 2024
    As of November 9, 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 the water.

    ### Tidal and Weather Conditions
    Today, the sun rises at 6:39 AM and sets at 5:12 PM, giving you a good 10 hours and 33 minutes of daylight. The tidal coefficient is relatively low, indicating smaller tidal ranges and weaker currents. The high tide is at 11:59 AM, and the low tides are at 5:25 AM and 6:40 PM[5].

    ### Fish Activity
    The cooling water temperatures have really kicked off the fall fishing season. Speckled trout are becoming more active, particularly in the early mornings and late afternoons. You can find them around deeper bridges, creek mouths, and areas like the Haystacks or Newport River. Topwater plugs, hard suspending lures, and soft plastics are all working well for trout[1][2].

    Red drum are abundant, with good numbers found in deeper creeks, along grass banks, and around oyster rocks. Live shrimp or mullet on a Carolina rig, as well as soft plastics under popping corks, are highly effective. As the day progresses, look for them on sand and mud flats for sight casting opportunities[1][2].

    False albacore are the stars of the show right now, with acres of them feeding out around Cape Lookout. These fish are hitting fly setups, smaller metal jigs, and lures like Albie Snax and Hogy Epoxy lures. Be prepared to ride around and cast into surface-feeding frenzies[1].

    Bluefish are everywhere, starting right outside the inlets and along the beachfronts. They are also mixed in with the false albacore and can be caught using similar lures. Gray trout are starting to show up over deeper structures and around Cape Lookout, with Stingsilvers and Beach Bum lures being good choices[1].

    For those venturing further out, king mackerel are active around nearshore reefs and structures, with some blackfin tuna and wahoo mixed in. Live baits like shrimp or mullet are effective for these species. Out in the Gulf Stream, wahoo and sailfish are being landed[1].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    - For speckled trout: Topwater plugs, MirrOlure MR-17s, and soft plastics.
    - For red drum: Live shrimp or mullet on a Carolina rig, soft plastics under popping corks, and Gulp Shrimp on jig heads.
    - For false albacore: Fly setups, smaller metal jigs, Albie Snax, and Hogy Epoxy lures.
    - For bluefish and gray trout: Stingsilvers, Beach Bum lures, and other glass minnow style jigs.
    - For king mackerel, blackfin tuna, and wahoo: Live baits like shrimp or mullet.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Cape Lookout**: This area is hot for false albacore and bluefish, with plenty of surface activity.
    - **Cape Fear River**: The southern end of the river is good for speckled trout, especially during early mornings.
    - **Nearshore Reefs**: Areas like the Big 10/Little 10 reefs are great for king mackerel, blackfin tuna, and wahoo.
    - **Inlets and Creek Mouths**: These areas are good for red drum and speckled trout, particularly around oyster rocks and grass banks.

    With the right gear and knowledge of these hot spots, you're set for a productive day of fishing in the Atlantic Ocean off North Carolina.

    Nov 8 2024
    As of November 8, 2024, the fishing scene in the Atlantic Ocean off North Carolina is quite active, especially around areas like Atlantic Beach and Oak Island.

    ### Tidal and Weather Conditions
    Today, the sun rose at 6:48 AM and will set at 4:58 PM. The tidal coefficient is low, at 40, indicating smaller tidal ranges and weaker currents. The first high tide was at 12:08 PM, and the next will be at 11:15 PM, with low tides at 5:59 AM and 7:09 PM.

    ### Fish Activity
    The waters are bustling with a variety of fish species. Redfish, speckled trout, and black drum are making strong appearances. Yesterday saw a good catch of sea mullet, bluefish, albacore, and spots in the morning, followed by sea mullet, bluefish, pompano, and gray trout later in the day.

    ### Water Temperature
    The water temperature has been holding steady, reported at around 69°F to 72°F in recent days, which is ideal for many of these species.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For catching redfish and speckled trout, using live or artificial shrimp and mullet imitations can be highly effective. For black drum, clams and shrimp are excellent bait choices. Bluefish and Spanish mackerel can be targeted with spoons and jigs, while pompano and spots are often caught using bloodworms.

    ### Hot Spots
    Two hot spots to consider are the Bogue Inlet Pier and the waters around Atlantic Beach. The Bogue Inlet Pier has seen a lot of action with sea mullet, bluefish, and pompano, while Atlantic Beach is known for its redfish, speckled trout, and black drum catches.

    Overall, with the current tidal and weather conditions, along with the right bait and lures, you're set for a productive day of fishing in North Carolina's Atlantic waters.
