Local Tips & Conditions

The Neuse River around New Bern offers excellent inshore fishing with varied structure and current that holds plenty of fish year-round. Fall conditions have been outstanding, with clear water and active fish responding well to both live bait and lures. Tidal movement plays a crucial role in success – when the tide's moving just right, the bite really turns on. Water temperatures during September and October create ideal conditions for striped bass and other inshore species to feed aggressively.

Our local knowledge of James City waters and surrounding areas gives anglers the advantage of fishing proven spots at optimal times. The combination of drift fishing over structure and targeted casting to feeding fish has been producing consistent results this season.
