A lot depends on what time of year you are going and if you have a 4 wheel drive vehicle. The southern most dock is in Avon but there are many north of that including Rodanthe and a bunch in Nags Head. Bonner Bridge at Oregon Inlet is another option but would require a fishing license as does any surf fishing.

Pier/bridge fishing requires different equipment than the surf.

If you can be a little more specific I would be glad to tell you anything I can but you might find this to be a good start:

Last week at Nags Head caught nothing all week. Was told the fish went south of Hatteras this time of year.

I've had the best luck using fresh shrimp and bloodworms (live and artificial) using small hooks on a bottom rig.
