Hi Folks, We have had some nice moderate temperatures early this spring, but the winds have been anything but moderate. Water temps are in the mid-60's but it is blowing a near gale. Here's my report: INSHORE: Black drum, red drum and a few flounder are biting fresh bait and artificials. The best bites have been in the creeks, the waterway and the inlets. NEAR SHORE: Some Atlantic bonito have been caught at the near shore AR's. Bluefish have been plentiful. OFFSHORE: More bonito in the 10 mile areas. GULFSTREAM: No reports due to wind. Cape Fear River: Trout and reds are biting in the lower Cape Fear. UPCOMING: Look for fishing to explode when these fronts and winds settle down. Until Next Time... LET'S GO FISHING!!!
