It Started off great, then slowed a little as the current changed over, then picked back up for a great finish! It was a Fun fisrt half of the day! Be sure to Watch part 2 of this day as well!

    Great flounder fishing. I’ve never caught a flounder but I’ve never really tried. Pitch some shrimp around and something always grabs them before they get to the bottom. Great video brother

    Man you killing me Jesse. Counting the days and I will be after them in NC. If it’s not so hot I can’t stand it. 96 today and now this storm is coming but I don’t think it will be bad. We need some rain.

      George Petron I Live in Kinston and fish mostly in the Neuse below New Bern. Slocum Creek Dawson’s creek and Hancock Creek. Sometimes I go to the coast. Had a camper at Swansboro and use to fish that area a lot. Pamlico river and bay river. Mostly inshore now. You probably got some killer spots your way. Prayers that you didn’t get it to bad during the storm.

    My husband and I go to the concrete ships alot. Fishing and crabbing at the beach. This video your there at low tide. Current is an issue. Seems like you're there ebbtide. Not Current or wind. The perfect time. We anchor out there on our boat or drive there and pitch a tent. Love Kiptopeak. Four hours to sail across the bay and anchor out. One hour to drive and pitch a tent with a small boat. Love your videos.

    Jesse you are killing me. I live in NC and as you know they closed our Flounder til Aug the 16 I think and I just got me two kayaks so I am ready. I went first time and got blistered by the sun. I had sunscreen but it didn’t work. Learned a lot but have been watching you for a while so maybe I’m a head of the game but we will see.

    • @SouthernReelsFishing
      @SouthernReelsFishing  4 роки тому +1

      Yeah the sun is a killer. Definitely cover up and wear sunscreen. Long sleeves, pants, shoes, and a face mask and hat are a must. I'm ready for them to open the Flounder season in NC. I;m going to do some Pier Videos in the obx coming up soon

      Both are bouncing. I drop it every 20 second or so to check how close to the bottom I am then give it one crank to get the bottom one just off the bottom and go back to jigging.
