Morehead City, North Carolina - Saltwater Fishing Report
660 line
We had a very nice family from Maryland on board on a very nice weather day. Put the lines in just north of the rock. Water was green and full of grass. No way to fish there so we moved further north and fished around the 660 line. A lot of boats fished the same area but the bites were slow. Water temp stayed around 71.9 the entire day. The real warm water was way offshore and way north. We ended up the day with 1 tuna, 2 gaffers and a sling-er and 1 chopper blue. The boys had a great time and I really enjoy watching the kids have a good time. Wish the fishing had been better for them but that is fishing. They are coming back in June so hopefully the fishing will be better.

Bio: Captain Bill is a USCG licensed captain with 17 years of fishing experience in the Atlantic Beach/Morehead City, NC area. I retired last year after 30 years in the field of education. I was a teacher/football coach, athletic director, and the last 12 years a high school principal. I am now living my dream of charter fishing full time. I believe and encourage customer participation on the charter. With our charter you get to actually fish not just "ride and reel" unless that is what you want to do. I enjoy sharing my fishing experience with others and will do whatever is necessary to make your trip the best fishing experience you've ever had. The boat is a 33' Grady White Express (2006) and the electronics and tackle are first class.
