We fished with Rosilea & Tommy Wrenn of Lexington,NC today. They operate Lexington Fire Extinguisher Sales & Service,Inc. and even have accounts down here in Southport, for honest service you can depend on, give them a call at (336)236-6804. After locating bait just west of Yaupon Pier the crew of the Yeah Right headed out in search of a King Mackerel or two. Not to be let down, as soon as the first line entered the water a King about 20lbs. "skyrocketed" on the propwash bait peeling off just enough drag to get us excited as he dropped the bait and "cackled" his way off to another meal. We continued trolling around AR-425 for a couple of more hours to have several other short strikes and one 18lb. Kingfish. As the forcasted 15 knot winds seemed to lay down to about 10 knots the Yeah Right moved on offshore about 6 miles to find multiple strikes and another King Mackerel in the 20lb range and a couple of Sharks. After releasing two Blacktip sharks about 30lbs each and boating the Kingfish the Yeah Right ventured onward finding a good concentration of bait around Tom McGlammery Reef where Tommy masterfully reeled up another 20+lb King Mackerel. Check out pic's on my site!!! It sounds like the Kings are finally starting to heat up on their annual fall bite(hope the offshore hurricane doesn't mess things up again) Reports of Spots beginning to show up in the river and nearshore. Till Next time, FISH ON!!! Capt. Butch Foster. YEAH RIGHT CHARTERS, Southport,NC. (910)845-2004. www.yeahrightcharters.com
