STATE RECORD 193 lb TARPON!

A new North Carolina state record for Tarpon was set Wednesday, Sept 17 by Malcom Condie, fishing from Sea View Pier. Check out more of the story and see a picture at www.topsailangler.com.

The weekend has been good fishing form Topsail Island's piers, as well as the surf. We have even caught a few more spots. The water is getting cooler, and more spots are starting to show up. The speckled trout bite should be starting up in the surf any time now. Try grubs or live shrimp floated under a cork in the early morning. Anglers fishing Topsail have this week have caught puppy drum, black rum, pompano ,bluefish ,spanish, mullet, spots, and flounder. A king mackerel has been weighed in almost everyday this week at Surf City Pier. Fishing is starting to look better, nights are cooler, days are cloudy, the water is cooling quickly, and it won't be long until I drag out the waders. An angler fishing Lea Island told us that the large blues were so thick at Lea Island one day this week, they were chasing roe mullets up onto the beach. I don't have an offshore or inside report.

Until next time....
Tight lines!
