North Carolina springs can be anything but predictable, sometimes that is about the same for spring fishing around these parts.\u00a0 So far, we\u2019ve had a pretty good winter temperature wise (especially later winter); I think we are about two (+\/-) weeks ahead on spring temps and fishing.\u00a0 Fishing wise here is what I look to target during April around Southeast NC area waters.<\/p>\n

The Atlantic Bonito (good eating) and False Albacore (I do not recommend eating but fun to catch) are going to showing up now just offshore of Wrightsville, Carolina, and Topsail beaches in the one-to-ten-mile range.\u00a0 Trolling Clark spoons on planners or small deep driver lures can be the key to success some days for the Bonito and False Albacore.\u00a0 When using the Clark spoons, I would recommend the pink flash spoon in sizes #0 and #1; the pink flash series has really helped me put more fish in the boat.\u00a0 A bird rig on top with a Clark spoon about five to six feet behind it or a small daisy chain (squids) from Bluewater candy in colors blue, silver or pink have worked very well for me on top too.<\/p>\n

I prefer casting over trolling myself. \u00a0I love to look for those high speed, good eating and so much fun to catch Atlantic bonito and later in the month the Spanish mackerel. 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 spoons like Big Nic Spanish Candy lures in sizes 1\/2oz up to the 1.5oz (Capt. Jot edition) sizes in colors pink, blue, green or Capt. Jot Custom color (blue\/pink). I use a thirty-pound fluorocarbon leader at two to three foot long when casting these lures (no swivel). \u00a0Using high-speed spinning reels has really helped my customers get more bites. *See here: https:\/\/alnk.to\/4BFOrsT<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0\u00a0I have really become a fan of casting a high-speed low-profile bait-caster reel when casting to Bonito and Spanish. I use a PENN Fathom high-speed 300 reel. *See here: https:\/\/alnk.to\/gVMHXSX<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0You can also use fly gear in weights eight to nine, this can make for a great challenge on fly tackle. Look for these fish to be hanging around near shore artificial reefs, ledges, and inlets.\u00a0 And the Spanish Mackerel will mix in any day now!<\/p>\n

Another fish that really starts to show up around the inshore creeks and inlets of Southeast North Carolina is the good\u2019ole Bluefish and during April you can catch some bigger Bluefish too; like ten pounds plus big!\u00a0 These blues will hit Berkley Gulp six-inch jerkshad *See here: https:\/\/alnk.to\/gKQ67Wp<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0and Berkley CullShad *See here: https:\/\/alnk.to\/44Vxvaq<\/a><\/strong> lures in bright colors, I rig both of these lures on TroKar 1\/4oz swim bait hooks *see here: TroKar<\/strong> TK170<\/a> \u00a0\u00a0Hard baits like big poppers and MirrOlure Top Dog\u2019s work well too for the big Blues.\u00a0 Don\u2019t forget the steal leaders for these fish or they will get a free lure form you every time!\u00a0 Try light single strand wire in sizes #2, #3 or #4 will keep your lure on the end of your line and not in a bluefish\u2019s pocket!\u00a0 I catch Blues in the one-to-fifteen-pound range during April, (some years there are more than others and sometimes only a few show up).<\/p>\n

There is one fish that a lot of anglers overlook in April and that is the Black Drum.\u00a0 What I love about these fish is you can catch them in good numbers this time of year and there great to eat!\u00a0 On top of all that they are also easy to catch; use a light Carolina rig with an Eagle claw L42 #1 size hook. \u00a0I make my own rigs with thirty-pound fluorocarbon leader material.\u00a0 I prefer as fresh as I can get shrimp for black drum fishing.\u00a0 Fish these rigs around docks, oyster rocks and inlets for Black Drum; you might even get a Redfish mixed in as well. If you catch one, it\u2019s a good idea to stay a little longer; these fish are typically in groups.<\/p>\n

Cape Fear River Striped Bass can bite very well into April, but the fish move around a lot more during April, you\u2019ll find them at one spot one day and the next day they have moved on.\u00a0 In April the Stripers will start to move into shallower waters, I look for the Stripers in three to ten feet of water in the early spring.\u00a0 This is when you need to also shallow up your presentation, go lighter with you tackle.\u00a0 I prefer Berkley Powerbait CullShad in salt & freshwater colors; *Saltwater colors: https:\/\/alnk.to\/44Vxvaq<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0 Freshwater colors: https:\/\/alnk.to\/9T9W6Dc<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0Rigging the grass pig lures on TroKar TK170 swim bait hooks should put a Striper on the end of your line.\u00a0 Look for Cape Fear River Stripers around mud-flat edges, bulk-heads and shallow reed-grass edges on sunny warmer days.\u00a0 *Remember Cape Fear River Striped Bass are Catch & Release fishing only.<\/p>\n

Also, in the Cape Fear River I really enjoy heading to Lock & Dam #1 or #2 on the Cape Fear River during April to catch large American shad on light tackle and Fly tackle.\u00a0 Casting shad darts in bright colors and shad flies is the way to catch these shad.\u00a0 I use a double shad dart rig; this makes it easier to cast the light darts and sometimes you get two shad at the same time!\u00a0 The shad run in the one to a few over four pounds; super fun on fly and light tackle setups \u201cpoor man\u2019s Tarpon\u201d!<\/p>\n

Tackle run down: PENN Slammer IV (high speed Bonito) *See here: https:\/\/alnk.to\/4BFOrsT<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0& Battle IV Spinning reels (1000 & 2000 shad fishing), 2500 & 3000 sizes for Stripers, Black drum & Redfish *See here: \u00a0https:\/\/alnk.to\/dAnHgs1<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0 Rods: Fenwick HMG Inshore 7\u2019 medium action *See here: https:\/\/alnk.to\/90AwwR1<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0Line Spiderwire Ultra-cast in (six-pound shad fishing) ten- and fifteen-pound other species.\u00a0 Berkley Pro Spec fluorocarbon leader material for all my leaders. *see here: https:\/\/alnk.to\/eONCcq8<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0\u00a0Tackle Storage I prefer Plano Guide Series *see here\u00a0https:\/\/alnk.to\/gKQItqB<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and Z-series\u00a0https:\/\/alnk.to\/9bu8in4<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0with EDGE\u00a0https:\/\/alnk.to\/eZH8FjA<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0boxes inside.<\/p>\n
