Topsail Island fishing report

Hello from Surf City! The spot bite is still a bit slow with small runs from time to time. We are still waiting on the big fall run. There have been a few small catches of whiting and pompano, but nothing major. At night, there have been reports of puppy drum, mostly under the slot, and a few small speckled trout. A few black drum have been reported biting cut shrimp. The inside bite has been a bit better, with flounder being caught near the inlets, and along the ICW in deep holes. The speckled trout bite continues to improve in the New River and the Neuse River tidal basin. We are still waiting for cooler temperatures, so the water in the surf will cool a bit more. Hopefully, as soon as the water cools the speckled trout as well as the flounder bite will improve in the surf and from the piers.





Till next time....
Tight lines!
