Looking for some tips on the basics for locating red drum and trout on the Albemarle Sound this time of year. I'm new here and have had some limited success but I'm not doing so well lately. What are some of the basics for locating where these fishing are holding this time of year? Should I be concentrating my efforts on the flats near deeper water? Deep holes? Somewhere else? Saw some reds in a small school the other day on a flat but they were not interested in my paddletales. Been fishing around Kill Devil Hills, Nags Head and Oregon Inlet. Thanks!

Welcome aboard Bill. Down here they are holding up around docks and oyster beds. Hope that helps you out.

Thanks! I've heard that but I thought that was more of a summertime pattern. Going to hit some of those today... Thanks again!

Watch that water temp W B, if its chilling down they will be headed to the channels. My go to there was the diesel Z man paddle tails with pro cure shrimp scent applied. Frozen shrimp pieces are good also.

Waiting on you to chime in. That's your old stomping grounds.

Thanks for your response! Hoping to check out some channels soon. Would you suggest channels close to the Inlet or further back around bridges maybe??
