Oriental, North Carolina - Saltwater Fishing Report
Neuse River, Pamlico Sound
The shallow water redfihs has remained good. Good number and good sized fish are biting a variety of baits and lures. We are finding a few specks and flounder in the mix.
Tarpon have arrived in the Pamlico Sound and are moving toward the Neuse. There is a pile of them and several of them have been caught. I start my tarpon trips this week.
A few giant (40 plus pound) red drum are here as well so get ready for that season....August and Sept to go off soon.
