  • Fishing Report: Perfect Conditions for Action Across NC Coasts - Bluefish, Pompano, Reds, Bonito & More Biting
    May 24 2025
    This is Artificial Lure, bringing you your fishing report from the North Carolina coast for Saturday, May 24, 2025.

    Weather this morning is perfect for fishing. The high will be around 75, dipping just below 70 overnight. Winds are light, out of the west-southwest at about 6 miles per hour, which means calm seas and easy casting. Ocean water temperatures are running between 70 and 75 degrees, and the sound is a little warmer up to 78. Sunrise was at 5:59 a.m. and sunset will be 8:11 p.m., giving you a full day on the water[4][5].

    Fish are active up and down the Atlantic beaches. In the surf, anglers are picking up bluefish, pompano, red drum, sea mullet, and sheepshead. Bluefish are running large this week, and there was even a 21-pound barracuda caught off Bogue Inlet Pier, which is a rare treat[5]. Spots, gray trout, and plenty of Spanish mackerel are mixing in as well.

    Inshore, there has been steady action on reds and black drum, both preferring cut bait, shrimp, or sand fleas. The bonito bite offshore and nearshore is hot, especially around the wrecks and reefs. If you're heading out in the ocean, look for sheepshead and black sea bass on the structure, with cobia showing up this week and king mackerel becoming more common[2][3][4].

    Best lures right now for Spanish mackerel and bonito are metal spoons, especially the Big Nic Spanish Candy in 1/2 to 1.5 ounce sizes. Cast fast and keep your retrieve quick, as these fish are chasing bait right at the surface. For red drum and black drum, you can't beat fresh cut bait, peeler crab, or sand fleas, especially in the surf zones[1][2][3].

    Hot spots to try today include Bogue Inlet Pier for Spanish, blues, and the occasional big surprise. Hatteras Island surf is holding big bluefish, pompanos, and reds, and the nearshore artificial reefs just off Wrightsville Beach are loaded with bonito and mackerel[3][4][5].

    Offshore, anglers are reporting nice hauls of blackfin tuna, dolphin (mahi), king mackerel, and a few wahoo – so if you get a weather window, it’s worth running deep[4].

    Overall, it’s a banner start to the summer fishing season here in North Carolina. Light winds, warm temps, and plenty of hungry fish waiting. Tight lines and good luck out there today.

  • North Carolina's Coastal Fishing Heats Up in May - Redfish, Spanish Mackerel, and Bonito Thriving
    May 23 2025
    Hey there, anglers! This is Artificial Lure checking in with your North Carolina Atlantic coast fishing report for this beautiful Friday morning, May 23, 2025.

    We're in the heart of May fishing right now, folks, and let me tell you - the action is hot! Today's weather is shaping up nicely with temperatures expected to reach the upper 70s and light easterly winds at 5-8 knots. We've got high tide coming in around 9:35 AM and low tide at 3:20 PM. Sun came up at 6:05 AM and won't set until 8:10 PM, so you've got plenty of daylight to get those lines wet.

    The redfish bite has been absolutely stellar this past week, especially in the early mornings and late evenings. These reds have really settled into their typical May patterns, making this the perfect time for casting artificial lures their way. Several anglers reported solid catches on cut bait around the inlets.

    Spanish mackerel action is in full swing all along the coast! They're busting the surface and providing some exciting visual fishing. For these speedsters, you can't go wrong with Big Nic Spanish Candy lures in 1/2oz up to 1.5oz sizes. High-speed spinning reels are getting more bites, but I've personally been loving my PENN Fathom high-speed 300 baitcaster when chasing these rockets.

    Atlantic bonito numbers remain strong, particularly around nearshore reefs and ledges. Trolling Clarkspoons behind #1 planers at 4-5 mph has been the ticket, but vertical jigging with diamond jigs is working well when you mark a good school.

    Striped bass are moving up the coast after their Chesapeake spawn. They're hitting chunks of bunker, peeler crabs, and sand fleas in the surf zones. Black drum action is slowing down on southern beaches but picking up on the northern stretches.

    For those willing to run offshore, king mackerel are solid in the 30-40 mile range. Grouper season is open, with the best action in 80-100 foot depths. You'll also find American red snapper, grunts, and vermilion snapper in those same areas.

    Hot spots this week: Wrightsville Beach inlets for redfish, the nearshore structures off Carolina Beach for bonito and Spanish, and check out the creeks off the Pungo River if you're up for spectacular topwater action. The Ocean City inlet near the jetties has been particularly productive for stripers.

    This is Artificial Lure saying tight lines and good fishing to y'all! Get out there while the May action is hot!

  • "Coastal Fishing Report: Bonito, Spanish Mackerel, and Redfish Dominate the North Carolina Bite"
    May 21 2025
    Good morning anglers, this is Artificial Lure coming at you with your North Carolina coastal fishing report for Wednesday, May 21, 2025.

    We're looking at a beautiful day here on the Atlantic coast with temperatures expected to reach the upper 70s by midday. Light easterly winds around 8 knots are perfect for getting out on the water. Sunrise was at 6:04 AM, and we'll have sunset at 8:08 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to get those lines wet. Today's high tide is at 9:15 AM with low tide coming in at 3:22 PM.

    Folks, May fishing is in full swing, and it's been absolutely on fire these past couple weeks! The Atlantic bonito bite continues to be spectacular, especially around AR-315 and AR-320. These speedsters are hitting Clarkspoons behind planers and deep divers, but for my money, nothing beats casting those 1/2 to 1.5-ounce metal jigs when they're busting on the surface[1][4].

    Spanish mackerel have shown up in strong numbers all month. They're running the beach and inlet edges, with the best action coming on those Big Nic Spanish Candy lures. I've been getting my clients on more fish using high-speed spinning setups, though some folks are finding success with baitcasters too[1].

    Redfish action is peaking right now. They're settling into their summer patterns and really responding to artificial lures. Check the marsh edges and creek mouths on the falling tide. Those shallow flats around Wrightsville Beach have been holding good numbers of upper-slot reds[1][5].

    Striped bass are migrating up the coast, with some nice catches reported around the inlets. Most are over-slot, but there's been a decent number of keepers in that 28 to 31-inch range. Fresh chunks of bunker, peeler crabs, and sand fleas have all been producing[2].

    For you surf anglers, sea mullet and black drum are taking cut shrimp, while bluefish schools are scattered off the beaches. We're also seeing the first red drum showing up on the Virginia beaches, which means they'll be hitting our shores any day now[2][4].

    Hot spots this week: Check out Masonboro Inlet early morning for Spanish, the backwaters of the Pungo River for topwater redfish action, and don't sleep on Wrightsville Beach's marshes during the afternoon falling tide[1][5].

    For those willing to run offshore a bit, there are blackfin tuna and wahoo opportunities, though you'll need to push out past the nearshore reefs[4].

    That's the report for today, May 21, 2025. Remember, a bad day fishing still beats a good day at work. This is Artificial Lure signing off until tomorrow. Tight lines, y'all!
