À propos de cet audio
Today’s sunrise hit just after 6:10 a.m., and sunset will be around 8:00 p.m. We started the day with calm, warming weather and light winds—a classic May morning that sets up a great day on the water. Tides are running strong along the coast, with a high tide mid-morning and another low rolling in late afternoon, perfect for working both the morning bite and an evening session.
May fishing has really kicked into high gear. Water temperatures are creeping up and lots of fish are moving in. Offshore, the bite for Atlantic bonito and Spanish mackerel is excellent. These fish are working nearshore reefs, ledges, and inlets, especially around Wrightsville Beach and Masonboro Inlet. Anglers have been nailing them casting spoons, especially the Big Nic Spanish Candy lures in 1/2 oz to 1.5 oz sizes. High-speed spinning reels are making a difference, and for those who like a challenge, 7-9 weight fly rods are putting in work. You’ll also find false albacore and plenty of aggressive bluefish mixed in, plus some small king mackerel—just remember to check your kings for size limits before tossing them in the box[1][5].
Inshore, black drum are running strong, especially along boat docks and marsh edges. Folks fishing with fresh shrimp are reporting steady action and good catches, including some solid keepers. The speckled trout are out of their winter hiding spots and moving toward the bigger water of Pamlico and Neuse, so this is a transition time—focus on creek mouths and points with moving water. Redfish are gathering up inshore as well, and this is a top month for sight-casting artificials to slot-sized reds cruising the flats and grass edges[3][4].
For bait, fresh shrimp and cut mullet are best inshore. For lures, a hard popping motion with topwaters or a flashy spoon will draw strikes, especially on windy, choppy days. Offshore, stick with spoons and try trolling small planers if the fish aren’t on top.
Hot spots for today are the nearshore artificial reefs off Wrightsville Beach for your bonito and Spanish mackerel, and the inshore grass flats and creek mouths near Sneads Ferry and Masonboro Sound for redfish and black drum.
Overall, expect lots of bites, good variety, and a real shot at filling a cooler or tagging out with some fun catch-and-release. Tight lines, and I’ll see you out on the water[1][3][5].
