What are the best inshore fishing spots at North Carolina?
I have been fishing at Delaware for many years now, and I feel like going more down south to try and catch different species of fish such as red drum and whatnot. Anyone know of any good spots I could try from inshore?
wikipedia article on red drum states: "Red drum are often found over sand and sandy mud bottoms in coastal waters and estuaries. They feed mainly on crustaceans, mollusks and fishes.[10] Since they are bottom feeders, they are commonly caught with bait either on the bottom or suspended within a couple feet of the bottom. Shrimp is a typical bait that works well; squid can also be used and is less subject to bait stealing by hardhead catfish and Atlantic croakers which often frequent the same waters. There are times when the older,larger fish are more readily caught on a half or a quarter of a blue crab with the top shell removed and cut or broken to fit on a 4/0 to 9/0 hook. Baitfish such as pinfish can also be effective,along with a variety of other techniques." HOPE THIS HELPS!!! GOOD LUCK!!!
