Pamlico Perch

Nice catch.

Looks like a great day on the water. Those were some jumbos for sure. Weather permitting I'm getting some next weekend.

Forecast I just saw says highs around 40 next weekend but no big system or anything.

Yeah, there's a bunch. And if you venture offshore, a few grander (1000+ #) marlin have been caught off our coast, plus plenty of wahoo, tuna, mahi and mackerel. Inshore specs, redfish and flounder.

That is awesome. My wife was an Army brat and she grew up in Fayetteville, NC but she is definitely not a fisherman. YET!!! My mother-in-law, on the other hand, was a hardcore angler. However, I never got the opportunity for her to show me any of her NC hotspots before she passed away. Therefore, I look forward to finding several of my own. The number of creeks, rivers, ponds and lakes you guys have is amazing. I love to bass and crappie fish. However, my secret passion is flyfishing for big bream. Do you guys do any of that in NC?

Thanks for the PM OptiMystic. I look forward to testing out all the fish your state has to offer.
