New to Forum, first post!
I have an 8 foot Wilderness System Ripper kayak that I generally take out on the local lakes and rivers in Central NC. In a few weeks me and a few others who have kayaks plan to take an overnight trip down to the Cape Fear River to visit Sharks Tooth Island and camp out on Keg Island just south of Wilmington, NC. And of course, I can't be on the water and not fish!
I could really use some advice on what types of fish I will encounter this time of year and what to use as bait/rigs. I was thinking about using bottom rig with shrimp as bait but not sure if that would work or if there was something better! I'm open to any and all suggestions! My girlfriend I know will want to use a bobber with a worm, any comments on if that will work or not?
Lastly I am unfamiliar with the Cape Fear River and fishing that close to the ocean. I'm open to any and all advice!
Thank you very much!
