My son, SIL and I had a very productive first couple of days in the two week flounder season here in NC. We limited out both days, with new PB’s for me of 24” and my son of 22”. We also caught slot red drum and 2 of us caught our limit of 4 speckled sea trout one day. Dawson Creek was very productive for us and the bite was on mainly during the first couple of hours after sunrise and before sunset. We caught a lot of undersized fish as well. Was a great time.
Paddle tails in Fried Chicken, Cajun Chicken and Pearl White, along with green and black, and green and chartreuse curly tail grubs were what the fish were going after. We worked big schools of menhaden in and at the mouth of the creek. We didn’t have much luck doing that but lost a bunch of paddle tails just behind the hook.

Nice going guys. Your son matched my PB from North Creek last week at 22" also. Only found 4 trout all week but well over 70 flounder in that 12" - 14" range were brought on board. Had a keeper 7 of the 11 days I was there.

Safe to say I enjoyed NC fishing.

Thanks Fred. Spending a couple of days on a 18 ft boat with 3 of us slinging hooks is a great way to build trust and bond with one another. Here is another picture I thought I had in with the original bunch. Sunrise on the Pamlico

WTG on the PB Plum! Sounds like you had a great time as well. I told the boys we were gonna need to target species where we could keep more than 1 fish/person/day.
