I am heading to New Bern over Labor Day weekend on a fishing trip. Hoping to get some reds and striper. Any tips. tricks, or advice? We went in October of last year and the big fish were already out of the area.

Thanks in advance- Tight lines!!!

Well right now nothing is hitting. This morning our water temperature was 71 so the fish are out in deeper waters. Good luck it could change by then due to weather getting cooler.

Welcome to the stage Charlie. My sons and I are headed to Arapahoe in mid-September to target reds, trout and flounder. I would certainly be interested in how you do. Be sure to check back with us after your trip. Pictures are great! Advice: live shrimp under a popping cork will sure get their attention. If you can get out on a still morning, taking a good sized red on atop water lure is hard to beat. I have a son that lives near you. He is at Fairview. Best of luck to you! Tight lines!
