The trout are setting up for winter in creeks. Finding them are creek mouths and areas of late. Loving the DOA Deadly Combo and Rapala Twitchin Rap. Rock have still be showing down river but slack up in New Bern. Hopefully water will get straight and bring them back for great top water action. Shop will be running regular hours for a month more and haveread full article

Have had fair success with small trout and few legals, lot of pups and some decent flounder.
Rock season opens Oct 1 and they are eating good in stump fields.
Doing 5 hour $400 trips targeting top water and moving into some trout/mixed bag. Can do 3 anglers but 2 is better for you anglers.
Just a call away!

Day 2 for the Bells found the SW wind blowing in am. Lil Dave 
got the first early in the rollers and Dad David 
closed out trip with a Fat Male! Was a pleasure having 3 generations of Bells out. Great folks from Texas getting to see our world class fishery. The DOA Popping Cork AH Swimbait combo is the ticket. Out fished all anglers I know in this area in the past few day. No used just by me butread full article
What a great morning on the Neuse. 3 generations of Bells from Texas and they all caught Big Drum. Couldn’t get any better. We go again Thursday and if is as good as today Texans will be pouring in for this action, our world class fishery! Bob

Well, a lot of folks have asked why I am not posting much of lately. The reason is Big Drum has started slow and not too much to report. There are a few fish cooperating but it has been tough. The first Full Moon spawn is this coming week so things should improve drasticly.
There has been some drum caught on both DOA and bait. Your preference is the only decisionfactor as they both work. Iread full article
Day 3 – Blowing out of SW at 6:30 and no let up all morning. Don’t stop my Key West 23 Bay Reef! Out with a regular client Ronald Plecinski of “Jersey” and his brother in law Randy of Texas for some action and told them this is no doubt the worst conditions we could fish here. And we still had a limit of trout and one real nice slot drum along with several shorties. Live bait and anchor day.read full article
