Rebel Angler Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 Hey fellas how's it goin. Me and my dad are headed to the outer banks next thursday to do a little camping and fishing. Not much of a salt water fisherman and only fished the obx once or twice. So needless to say, I don't have a clue where to find the fish, what's biting, or what I need to be throwing. Can anybody help us out? Thanks Quote

Can anybody help us out? Thanks My friend, you are going down there to fish at probably one of the best times of the year!!! The bluefish are making their run north right now and I have heard that the spanish mackerel are starting to come through too! I would go just find any pier or bridge where fishing is allowed and get ready. You want to use got-cha plugs tied onto about a 6in 50+ lb mono leader so the fish dont bite through it. Tie that on, throw, and you will undoubtedly catch a fish. now, if the wind is in the wrong direction you may catch nothing, but it looks like weather is going to be nice down there so you should be fine. If you need anymore help just look at what all the other fishermen are doing on the pier and you'll figure it out pretty quick! Im heading down there next weekend to do the same thing. I have had some of the most fun times fishing down there this time of year so im hoping it is another solid year! good luck to you! if you have any other questions just ask Quote
