  1. Fly-Fishing
    I'm taking a trip to Oak Island with some family early/mid October and I'm looking to get away and get my line tight. I'm more used to fly fishing for bass/trout so I have a few questions. A little guidance would go a long way for me. I may be able to bring a kayak, but I'm also not opposed to...

    Well, I got a spur-of-the-moment option to head to the coast for a few days next week so I'm going. I was wondering what's the word on surf fishing around Oak Island? When and biting what? I'm mainly interested in the flounder bite but really anything will make me happy.
  7. Saltwater Fishing
    Does anyone have any news from the OKI area? Just curious what's happening on the surf or inshore fronts. Heading down for the weekend and hope to at least soak a few baits in the surf. We had some action but nothing too impressive about two weeks ago from the beach. A short flounder, a good...

    Alright guys, I had a week at Oak Island last week and got in some fishing between house work so I thought I would give a report. Thursday (5/9): After I got done doing some maintenance around the house all day I hit the beach for an hour before and after sunset. I really wasn't trying. Just...

    I'm curious to see if it is legal to have a fire on the beach at Oak Island. I've done it before with no issues but I'm not sure of the actual law. The best that I could find states: Oak Island allows campfires on the beach with a bonfire permit. The permits are free and can be obtained from...

    Hello, all! I was recently invited to stay with a friend's family at their condo in the Oak Island area. One day, either Sat or Sun, I will likely join them on a charter trip. On the other, I plan to take my Trident13 out. I've fished further up the coast, but never that area. I don't feel...

    Hey guys, Caught this little guy out of the surf this weekend - any idea what kind of shark it is? Just curious, he didn't have too many identifying marks other than his head was pretty broad and heavy (not a bonnet though). He was a fun one though ... Other than that, the report was a...
