๐ฃ Carolina Beach Fishing Report
It's been a little mixed on the water this week, but there are still some excellent fishing opportunities around Carolina Beach.
๐ฅ Spanish Mackerel: Excellent
The nearshore Spanish bite has been one of the highlights lately, with plenty of action closer to the beach.
๐ฃ Reef Fishing: Slower, but quality fish are still being caught.
We've been seeing flounder, nice grey trout, and even some overslot red drum mixed in.
๐ Offshore Trolling: Slower right now, but we're expecting this fishery to improve over the coming month as conditions change.
๐ Offshore Bottom: Excellent.
Grunts, black sea bass, grouper and snapper are keeping the bottom fishing action strong.
Overall, there's still plenty of reason to get out on the water. Some fisheries are hot, others are starting to transition, and that's what makes this time of year interesting.
We'll keep you posted on what's biting.
