Here to surf fish where the best place to fish a deep slope
Haven't been there in yrs.
Storms can move things around alot.
Check at bait shop or look for the crowd.
God luck 👍🎣

There are no consistent deep slopes that you will be able to get to surcasting. There is a fair amount of structure you can reach and there are a number of tidal troughs that vary in location. Your best shot at deeper water from shore is Hatteras Inlet at the very end of Post road and there are some shore castable holes on the soundside near Buxton.

Just a heads up the current at Hatteras Inlet can be VERY strong and fishermen have died from underestimating it so be careful or just stay on shore.

Same at Oregon inlet if you decide to try up there 👍🎣

NO need to wade at either of those places. Lots of time the best fishing is just outside the breakers.

I agree with you Flytier, read the beach, find a trough and there’s usually no need to cast more than 30 yards. A lot of times that’ll even get you over that first bar.
