From Sneeds Ferry to Bald Head Island, they keep getting bigger!
Rain and lots of it has definitely had an impact on the fishing, but I’ll take quality over quantity any day. Water temps are high and salinity levels are down with all of the recent rain, but quality fish abound when they decide to bite!! Here are some pics from trips this past week.
Bayou Buck Spinner Baits still getting the job done
Bayoo Buck spinner baits have been the hot ticket as of late. They are much better built than others for Redfish as they are made of a much heavier gauge wire and the Redfish love them. I would say that 90% of our catches of late have come off of the spinner baits.
Here is a picture of Scotty with a nice 26-1/2″ fish that crushed a BB spinner bait.
They were chewing at Bald Head Island today
Had Neil and Charlie on board today and we finally found some fish willing to eat. It started out a little slow, but when the tide turned, the fish turned on. Bayou Buck spinner baits were the hot bait today!
Post-Arthur Topsail Redfish
Took a little recon trip this morning and found a few Reds willing to eat topwater after Hurricane Arthur passed us by. The water was surprisingly clean after all of the rain.
There’s nothing like a good topwater bite!
Here is one of my annual customers, Robert Wolfe, with a nice upper slot Redfish that ate a Skitter Walk SW-8 topwater plug!! I’ll see you and the boys again next year Robert!!
