Sightfish NC - Fly and Light Tackle Guide Service

When the weather is good the sightfishing this time of year is really good. Only a few openings left for March and April.
Soon we’ll start transitioning into summertime patterns for redfish and many of our seasonal species will start showing up.
Few trout, black drum, and flounder mixed in lately while targeting redfish.

Just a few months until the easiest fishing of the year. I still have some May dates open for striped bass fishing on the Roanoke River. With huge numbers of spawning fish migrating to a small section of river it offers easy fishing for all skills levels.
100 fish days are possible with both fly fishing and light tackle spin fishing gear.

A few pics from June and July. It has been super busy summer on the water. I think I’ve been off the water 4 days over the last 7 weeks so I’ve been bad about posting pictures on social media.
Some days fishing has been great and other days you’ve had to earn them in tough conditions and dirty water. But persistence pays off most days with some quality redfish, trout, and flounder. We’ve been catching fish on both fly tackle and light tackle spin gear with artificials…and bait when it’s tough.

I like summer, but my favorite months in NC are August-October. Late summer-fall is usually the most consistent fishing of the year for most all species inshore and nearshore.

Fall dates are starting to fill up so if you’re wanting to fish give me a call before we’re booked up.

Openings-
August:
13,16,17,19,30,31
September:
2, 7-10, 21,24-25,27-29
October:
4-9, 11-12, 20

I’m bad about keeping up with fishing
reports/posts due to being on the water everyday. Here are a few pics from the last week.

Fishing is getting good here on the Carolina coast.
We’ve been catching redfish and flounder everyday lately from Topsail Island and Wrightsville Beach, all the way down to Carolina Beach, Bald Head Island, and Oak Island.
I only have 2 full days and 4 half days open in June, but plenty of July-August dates still available. Many of our seasonal inshore and nearshore species are starting to show up in good numbers and fishing should keep getting better throughout the summer.
