Carolina Beach / Wrightsville Beach Fish
Carolina Beach / Wrightsville Beach Fish
Mar 9, 2026 Wilmington
Spring fishing is starting to fire up along Carolina Beach and Wrightsville Beach. Right now the nearshore wrecks are loaded with black sea bass. The bite has been extremely consistent, and limits are coming fairly quickly on most trips. If youโ€™re looking for steady action and great table fare, the nearshore sea bass fishing is about as reliable as it gets at the moment. A lot of bait has moved onto the beaches, including silversides and other small baitfish, which is a great sign for whatโ€™s coming next. Atlantic Bonito have already started showing up 10โ€“12 miles offshore, and as soon as water temperatures push consistently above 55ยฐF, they should move much closer to the beach. When that happens the bite can be fast and exciting with fish feeding aggressively on the surface. Historically, the bonito run is short but intense, typically lasting only 2โ€“3 weeks, with late March through early April being the prime window. Once the bonito push through, weโ€™ll start seeing a strong run of Spanish mackerel along the beaches, followed by increasing king mackerel activity both nearshore and offshore. Offshore fishing has also been productive with large king mackerel already being caught, but this time of year the key is finding the right weather window. Spring conditions can still be a little volatile offshore, so trips further out depend on the forecast. If you want the most consistent fishing right now, the nearshore trips targeting black sea bass are producing every day. And with the bonito run expected any time, the next few weeks should offer some of the most exciting fishing of the spring season. Tight lines!

Fall Fishing Report
Fall Fishing Report
Set 24, 2025 Wilmington
Hey anglers! The fall bite is on fire right now, and weโ€™re seeing some fantastic action both nearshore and offshore. Nearshore Action: โ€ข The king mackerel are still running strong and should continue their run through the end of October and even into November. Live bluefish are your ticket to hooking those bigger kings. โ€ข Red drum are also on a hot streak through the end of October. As we move into winter, theyโ€™ll push into the shallower backwaters to stay warm, so thereโ€™s plenty of good drum action ahead. โ€ข Speckled trout season is upon us, and the specks are showing up in good numbers. Great time to target them! โ€ข Mullet are starting to thin out a bit, but thereโ€™s still plenty around to keep the predators interested. Offshore Highlights: โ€ข Offshore fishing is heating up with plenty of wahoo and tuna being caught as close as 30 miles out. The albacore bite is absolutely everywhere right nowโ€”just head out about 5 miles and youโ€™ll find them hitting every few minutes. โ€ข The offshore bite is pretty consistent year-round if you pick the right weather windows. It can get choppier in winter, but thereโ€™s still great pelagic and bottom fishing on those calmer days. In short, itโ€™s looking like a fantastic few months ahead. Whether youโ€™re sticking close to shore or heading offshore, thereโ€™s plenty of action to be had. Tight lines!
