Oak Island Inshore Slam: Weakfish, Flounder & Redfish Caught

Action-packed day from the get-go! Summer fishing in Oak Island, NC brought us some great action on the water. I headed out with Brent for a 4-hour inshore trip, launching early in the morning under partly cloudy skies. The threat of rain didn't dampen our spirits as we set out from Fish Factory Road Southeast. Carolina Fly Guy was ready to show Brent some of the best spots Oak Island has to offer.

With our gear rigged and ready, we hit a variety of fishing spots, mixing up our techniques to maximize our chances. We started with some surf fishing, then moved on to try our luck from the pier. As the morning progressed, we even hopped in the kayak to access some prime inshore areas. Our efforts paid off with a nice mix of species. Brent landed a 12-inch Spotted Weakfish, which put up a good fight. We also managed to boat an 11-inch Summer Flounder and a scrappy 9-inch Redfish. While not trophy-sized, each catch added to the excitement of the day. The variety of fish really showcased what Oak Island's inshore waters have to offer.

Oak Island's diverse fishing grounds never disappoint, whether you're casting from the surf, dropping a line off the pier, or paddling in a kayak. The mix of techniques we used today is typical of how we approach these waters to find the bite. We wrapped up the trip with smiles all around, despite the rain that eventually moved in. It's days like this that remind me why I love guiding in these waters.
