Got out a couple times the past week. Took the wife out late Sunday afternoon for an hour. We fished the flats and found several pods of reds in the clear cool water. My wife landed one red to my none. We spooked several fish as we were limited in time so we covered as much water as possible on the trolling motor.
Last Friday I went out of Carolina beach to see if I could find a stray striper coming down the beach. I saw one fish bust a pogy on top but couldn't hook up. The Gannetts were dive bombing large schools of very large pogies so there has to be a few off the beach. I lost my focus as I was approached by two whales that came right up to my boat. What a cool experience!
I got in one full day of fishing yesterday. I fished for reds and specks early and boated five reds in short order, then tried to find some specks up river. I never found the trout so I shifted gears and went striper fishing. I landed 5 fish up to 28" and pulled the hooks on five more. I was using large soft plastics on weighted hooks due to the structure I was fishing. Pretty day on the water even though it was a little slow.
Tight lines,
Capt Ren
