The cleaner water has been key for this action. Surf anglers have been glad to see a nice push of pompano showing up for those casting sand fleas and shrimp into the wash. While the early season was seeing good numbers but mostly smaller fish, anglers fishing docks and other pilings are now finding a much better quality of size. Sheepshead action has really been heating up. The red drum are also striking at topwater plugs in the mornings on the ICW shallows. Both species have been hanging around structure in the waterway, and they’re feeding on fiddler crabs (black drum) or live bait/menhaden (reds). Wayne, of Oak Island Sporting Goods, reports that anglers fishing the ICW have had good successes catching red and black drum. Surf anglers have been enjoying steady action while bottom fishing, with catches of whiting, croakers, and bluefish. The nearshore anglers are seeing this same action, both good numbers of spanish mackerel now joined by scattered kings. The first few scattered king mackerel have also started to be caught, a great sign that these fish have begun moving inshore.
