June fishing on the Outer Banks

Outer Banks - Saltwater Fishing Report
June fishing is going hot and heavy on the Outer Banks. In the sound, Croakers are fat and hungry. Most are being caught around the Manteo bridge. Some Sea Mullet, Croakers, and Flounder are being boated in some of the deep holes near Oregon Inlet. Outside the inlet, Bluefish and Spanish mackerel have been fairly thick. Both are nice size and good eating. A few Cobia are still being caught, but most are lure shy. Out on the wrecks, Amberjack are always hungry if you have some live bait. Sea Bass, Spadefish, and Triggerfish are also on the wrecks, but the bite has been on and off. A few King Mackerel are starting to show up and are a blast to catch. It's nothing for them to rip out 150 yards of line in a matter of seconds. Out near the gulfstream, nice gaffer and plenty of bailer Dolphin are showing up in good numbers. The Yellowfin tuna are still out there, but it's been kind of hit and miss on them. Scattered billfish are showing up, but no great numbers. The overall offshore fishing has been good, if you're in the right area. If not, it's a long boat ride. The past several days, the heat during the day has been almost unbearable. I've been looking forward to the evening trips this time of year. It's cooler, less boat traffic, and still good fishing. Email or phone me if you want to go catch some fish. I'm now working with three other captains, so we can always get you on a boat and having a great fishing adventure.
