Red Drum at Night

Greetings From the Cape Fear Coast
Went fishing with my buddy Allen last night and hit some docks around Wrightsville Beach. I landed this overslot Red Drum on a Stirke King RedFish Magic spinnerbait. It hit right after sundown and put the Shimano 4000 to the test. After a 2-3 min fight and several runs to the pilings, we got him in the net. The fish appeared to be really light colored. Maybe the drum are moving in the sound now. Hopefully a sign of some great night fishing to come.

Cape Fear Fishing Report

Greetings from the Cape Fear Coast:

Monday May 26, 2008

Went riding on Cape Fear River up to the Black River. Man it sure is nice riding through the lowland of the New Hanover County. We saw some alligators and all types of birds on the ride up. As we approached the junction of the Black and Cape Fear a large fished launched about 4' out of the water. I was too far to see what it was but it was large. Arriving at the Black river we drifted along some waterlilies and caught a small crappie on a Strike King Red Magic spinner bait. I also missed a nice little bass on a Bomber crankbait. It was a great day on the water with the family on Memorial Day

Fished out of Masonboro Inlet on some livebottom. We vertical jigged Gotcha Plugs, drifting and anchored, and bagged some nice Spanish Mackerel. We also caught a short Flounder, 13" Seabass, some Croakers and 2 4' Sharpnose sharks. Four species all caught on Gotcha Plugs. We did pick up one Spanish pulling some Bomber and Yozuri Plugs.
