Trout and red drum fishing from the pamlico to currituck sounds has been very good this year. The sportsman inshore boats we have really capitalize on this fishing from spring to fall, using different types of plastics to live baits. All around this season we have had a great bite, offshore, inshore, and beach fishing. In Duck and Corolla yesterday we caught puppy drum, kingfish, spot, croaker, and few specs. Water temp in Duck, NC is 72 degrees. Fresh shrimp, bloodworms, sandfleas, and mullet have been working best. Picture of Sage with a speckled trout from the Currituck Sound.

Fishing along the beach in Duck, has been really good. Large kingfish, keeper size red drum, bluefish, mackerel, and some pompano. Water temp is 73 degrees today. Our half day and full day charters are having a pretty good week as well.

We have had a lot of big citation sea mullet all along the Outer Banks. Use light tackle, cast in close off the beach, and use sandfleas or bloodworms. We also had multiple reports of good size drum on fresh shrimp, which we also carry at our store. Our charter fishing fleet did well yesterday. Ocean Water temp in Duck is 79 degrees today.
