It is summer fishing season here on the Outer Banks. I know<br />

there are a lot of anglers that head to the Outer Banks and bring<br />

their own boats to fi sh out of Oregon Inlet and Hatteras. For those<br />

that come here, the Outer Banks offers plenty of near shore fi shing<br />

opportunities that give the visiting angler a chance to target several<br />

different species of fi sh. You can single out several different fisheries<br />

and still be in site of the land. The fi rst fish to target would be the<br />

ones directly in the inlets or just outside of them. The Bluefi sh and<br />

the Spanish Mackerel are easily caught by trolling with Sea Striker<br />

Clark Spoons or Bowed Up Spoons. You could also use small planers<br />

or inline trolling weights to vary the depth of your trolling spread<br />

to target fish at different depths. I also like to pull one line with a Sea<br />

Striker Sea Bird that will disturb the topwater in the trolling spread. If<br />

you see birds working the water, then troll in or around where they<br />

are working. Remember to check you size and creel limits with NC<br />

Marine Fisheries <strong>Web</strong>page at http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/mf/recreational-fi<br />

shing-size-and-bag-limits .<br />

The next species you can fi sh for are Triggerfi sh, Spadefi sh, Black<br />

Sea Bass, and Amberjack. You can fi nd these fi sh on wrecks and artifi<br />

cial reefs. Before you leave, check your nautical charts for wrecks<br />

and the location of artifi cial reefs. Also make sure you have plenty of<br />

different sizes of lead weights for fi shing these locations because you<br />

may get hung up on the bottom or on wrecks and lose you rigs. This<br />

is just the cost of doing business when you are doing this type of<br />

fi shing. Make sure you bring plenty of bait because sometimes when<br />

catching Triggerfi sh, you will go through a lot of bait trying to hook<br />

these bait thieves. I like using squid or cut Albacore when targeting<br />

these fi sh. The size of the hook you use will be determined by the<br />

size of the fish you are in. It is good to take a few live Croakers or<br />

by Jake Worthington<br />

Pinfi sh if you have a livewell on your boat. Try to send a couple of<br />

them down and see if you can hook an Amberjack. If one hits the<br />

bait, hang on because an Amberjack will give you a good hard fi ght!<br />

The last fi sh you could try for is King Mackerel. Your luck in catching<br />

these fi sh will be dependent on bait present and water temperature.<br />

You can target these fi sh in two ways--that is slow trolling live bait<br />

or trolling Bowed Up Spoons, either with or without strip bait on the<br />

spoons. This fi shery can be hit or miss but if you limit out on Bluefi sh,<br />

Spanish Mackerel and Bottomfi sh then you could give it a shot while<br />

you are already out anyway.<br />

If you are here on vacation and didn’t bring your boat, don’t worry.<br />

Check local fi shing tackle shops, marinas and fi shing centers to<br />

help you select one of these charter fi shing trips while on the Outer<br />

Banks!<br />
