Go earlier or later in the day to find that cooler water. Even a light rain shower can make the fish get more active. Small changes can make for a better day of fishing or (catching)!<\/p>\n<p>Redfish in July, well you can catch them but with the water really warming up you need to change the way you fish a little.\u00a0 If you want to target Reds in shallow waters, you really need to go early in the morning or late afternoon when the water is a bit cooler, cloudy days help too. \u00a0Top-water lures like MirrOlure Top dog jr. and Top Pup\u2019s are my choice in the shallows.\u00a0 During the mid parts of the day try to fish a little deeper with jigs &amp; grubs or swimbaits like Berkley five-inch CullShad. *See here <a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/44Vxvaq\"><strong>https:\/\/alnk.to\/44Vxvaq<\/strong><\/a> Rigging the CullShad on 1\/8oz or 1\/4oz Eagle Claw swimbait hooks. \u00a0The Reds like a little deeper water when the sun gets high in the sky (10am on).\u00a0 I really like Berkley Gulp baits, hey you can\u2019t beat their great scent and Redfish love\u2019em!\u00a0 Berkley\u2019s three-inch shrimp is my go-to Redfish lure during the hot summer months, I like molting, sugar spice glow and pearl white colors. The new Chrome series Gulp look really nice too! *See here <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/5ufSG4o\">https:\/\/alnk.to\/5ufSG4o<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0\u00a0I rig my Gulp baits on Fusion 1\/4oz and 3\/8oz jig heads in colors red or gray * <a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/hDqamLs\"><strong>https:\/\/alnk.to\/hDqamLs<\/strong><\/a> with thirty- or forty-pound Berkley Pro Spec fluorocarbon leader material. *See here <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/gKQnsJ5\">https:\/\/alnk.to\/gKQnsJ5<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Spanish mackerel fishing can still be pretty good in July, here too going earlier in the morning can pay off! These fish are a lot of fun to see busting the surface of the water and even more fun to see on the end of your line! Casting small spoons like (Big Nic Spanish Candy lures) or using fly gear in weights seven to nine can make for a great challenge on light tackle.\u00a0 When casting lures High speed spinning reels are really getting my clients more bites! I prefer the Slammer IV 2500 HS *See here: \u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/4BFOrsT\">https:\/\/alnk.to\/4BFOrsT<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>or a Authority 2500 HS *See here\u00a0 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/6109D5k\">https:\/\/alnk.to\/6109D5k<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0Look for Spanish to be hanging around near shore artificial reefs, ledges, and inlets. Cast and reel Fast, but one tip I can give you; let the lure sink down just a little before you start to reel. You might come over a few false albacore and bluefish mixed in with the Spanish from time to time.<\/p>\n<p>I am really starting to keep my eye out for the silver king (Tarpon); these big silver fish are making their way up from the south; they are again early this year.\u00a0 I have already had four bites with one being landed and two more lost. \u00a0The long trip has made them hungry and hungry fish are easier to catch, most of the time!\u00a0 I look for Tarpon around local inlets, shoals and hard bottoms close to shore.\u00a0 Live or fresh dead baits like Menhaden or Mullet on the bottom and free lining are the best bet for getting a bite out of these beasts.\u00a0 I prefer TrokarTK5 AP circle hooks in the new bait saver series *See hear <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/eagleclaw.com\/products\/trokar-tk5-bait-saver-circle\">Trokar TK5 Bait Saver Circle \u2013 Eagle Claw<\/a> <\/strong>sizes 8\/0 to 9\/0.\u00a0 My leader material is always Berkley Pro Spec sixty- or 100-pound fluorocarbon; Tarpon have great eyesight!\u00a0 Tarpon are around from early\/mid-June to mid-September most seasons around Southeast NC.\u00a0 If you hook in to one of these Tarpon hold on tight, they fight very hard!<\/p>\n<p>I also enjoy shark fishing later in the summer and July the bigger sharks really start to show up.\u00a0 Sharks on light tackle are always a good pull and boy kids love to catch\u2019em!\u00a0 I drift live and fresh dead bluefish, Spanish mackerel, mullet or menhaden in thirty to forty-five feet of water just offshore.\u00a0 I rig these baits with an 8\/0 circle hook with the barb pushed down for easy release, one foot of ninety pound plus wire and six to eight feet of eighty-pound mono leader.\u00a0 You can free line the bait and \/or put a small egg sinker on to keep the bait close to the bottom.\u00a0 You\u2019ll know when you get a bite!\u00a0\u00a0 Most sharks are in the twenty-to-one-hundred-pound range.<\/p>\n<p>The Flounder fishing is in full swing about everywhere by July and it has been a good Flounder season already, I know it is closed in NC!\u00a0 But SC is open, it really hurts to have to say that!!\u00a0 In July you can find Flounder around most inlets, in creeks (deeper water parts), main channels (ICW) and just off the beach.\u00a0 Using smaller lives baits like mud minnows, finger mullets and little menhaden should do the trick to getting them to bite for you.\u00a0 I rig these live baits on Carolina rigs, with #1 and 1\/0 L42 Eagle Claw hooks; a forty-pound fluorocarbon leader will work fine for Flounder fishing.\u00a0 Casting and slowly retrieving this rig, drifting, or anchoring with this rig are all good ways to catch Flounder with a Carolina rig.<\/p>\n<p>You can also go the artificial root as well to catch Flounder; (which I prefer).\u00a0 I tend to see bigger size flounder when using artificials.\u00a0 Try a Berkley Gulp five- or six-inch jerkshad, color wise go darker colors for stained or tannic waters.\u00a0 I use brighter colors for clearer, blue\/green waters.\u00a0 Here too the new Gulp Chrome series in the Jerkshad or four-inch shrimp looks awesome! * <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/5ufSG4o\">https:\/\/alnk.to\/5ufSG4o<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0\u00a0I rig the jerkshad and four-inch shrimp on 1\/4 to \u00be ounce long shank Berkley Fusion jig heads * See here <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/hDqamLs\">https:\/\/alnk.to\/hDqamLs<\/a><\/strong> working the jig slowly across the bottom.\u00a0 Ocean Flounder fishing I use a Berkley Fusion Bucktail *See here <a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/cHMQmfL\"><strong>https:\/\/alnk.to\/cHMQmfL<\/strong><\/a> I tip the bucktail with a Gulp Dragon tail. *See here <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/ge6QBpx\">https:\/\/alnk.to\/ge6QBpx<\/a><\/strong> I fish reefs, ledges and hard\/live bottoms for ocean flounder, fishing one to ten miles offshore.<\/p>\n<p>Tackle run down: PENN Battle III\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/aWDe16H\"><strong>https:\/\/alnk.to\/aWDe16H<\/strong><\/a> Slammer IV <a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/4MAHGzf\"><strong>https:\/\/alnk.to\/4MAHGzf<\/strong><\/a> or Authority <a href=\"https:\/\/alnk.to\/fSgjdIK\"><strong>https:\/\/alnk.to\/fSgjdIK<\/strong><\/a> series spinning reels 2500, 3000 &amp; 3500 sizes for the Redfish, Spanish and Flounder.
