I'm looking for a place where in NC where we would need to hike for a few hours just to reach the fishing spot, it could be a lake or a river. We do have Ultra light camping gear and want to stay for 2 nights before hiking back.

Does anyone know of such spots in NC or close to NC?

Thanks for any help 🙏

I just moved to NC, about an hour east of Greenville. I've fished a bit before and wanted to try out some bass and catfish fishing here, but I'm not sure where to start. I've tried some spinners at Shoupe's Landing on the Chowan river, but had no luck. If anyone is willing to share some helpful tips or places to try I'd be so grateful.

New here, a little desperate for advice on the best pier(s) to fish with my dear old dad. We were at the Bogue pier a month ago, seemed okay. A friend said Avon's the best. Would be fishing the first week of November. THANKS in advance.

Caught in Lake Brandt

hi everyone, I am traveling from SC to NC for a quick trip and found a nice airbnb on lake gaston. I have a 9ft inflatable raft/boat with a trolling motor. Is this something I would need to get some form of registration for in NC or no because it will only be 1-2 days? TYIA

I typically visit the Nags Head area once a year. It would be nice to meet locals who fish in the sound (Oregon inlet kayak launch, Manteo, and places further south). If anybody is willing to fish with an out-of-towner let me know. It would be appreciated.

How does one find tournaments in the area? Thank you.

Don't know if anyone can provide insight here but I have been carp fishing at lake Crabtree for many years, spring, summer, fall. Outside.of the occasional off day I would always kill it 5+ good carp if not more. Ive been multiple times this year, and some late last year, every type of condition, Ive caught maybe 2 carp and just a bunch of tiny channel cats. I don't know if something has changed or if I've just caught a crazy strong of bad luck. If someone knows the lake better than I'd do id appreciate any insight.

I love to fish and my recent vacation reignited love of it. I’ve mainly been fishing from the surf and bottom fishing on the pier but I want to try my hand on catching mackerel now.

Im completely clueless on how to go about it since apparently targeting mackerel is more complicated than just bottom fishing one thing I’m told is I’ll need two rods, why do I need two rods and how do I set them up?

Any other general suggestions for a beginner?

Thanks in advance.

Looking for a good river or creek on the south side of Charlotte for good bass fishing, any recommendations?

So I got my fishing license a few weeks ago and promptly lost it. Is there a way to look it up online?

Hey guys,

I wanna take up fishing as a hobby but I’ve never done it before. I live in charlotte and I was wondering if anyone could help me out with where to start.

If it helps sheepshead are my preferred target ATM. I’m also interested in

*bluefish *croaker *mullet *pompoamo *red drum *spanish mackerel

I’ve caught everything but the mackerel and the sheep’s head before but I have no idea how to specifically target a certain kind of fish .

My husband and I will be visiting Morrow Mountain State Park in a few weeks and we both have fly rods. The park map shows Yadkin River and Uwharrie River. Any suggestions on spots for us to visit? I do not currently have waders. Also, what type of fish are in this area and are there any restricted locations? We just moved to NC, so we are complete noobs!

Would anyone be interested in joining an online fishing tournament?

Taking recommendations on where to bass fish! Wanting to catch one before the summer ends :)

Ramp 2 to Ramp 4 and below - how have the crowds and the fishing been?

Hey all,

Newbie here. I’ve been fishing only a few times and I wasn’t the one to set anything up 😅. But I’m traveling to NC to visit family and my nephew (5years old) keeps saying he wants to go fishing. I would love to take him but I’m gonna be honest, I don’t know where to start in regards to rigging anything up. I was told University Lake is a great place to go. I’ve been watching a bunch of YouTube videos on how to tie knots and properly handle a fish. Do you guys have any other resources you could recommend? As well as how I should set up the rig in order to have the best possible chance of catching a fish for my nephew. Any help is much appreciated. I’ll be buying equipment there since I’m only bringing a small carry on.

Thank you!

I’m going to App state this year and wasn’t sure where people tend to fly fish around here? Any suggestions?

Hey All,

I've recently relocated from NY to Charlotte NC. I was wondering if anyone had some good Fly Fishing Recs within 2.5 hours of Charlotte. I appreciate any feedback!

Thanks
