Outer Banks Bass Fishing

June 5, 2013

I went to North River today to scout around for a upcoming trip.  I wanted to check the light tackle bite, which has been getting better and better everyday.  I also wanted to hit some banks that I did not fish this spring to see if the bass were there.  The first area I stopped at this morning had white perch schooling.  I picked up the 4 1/2 foot light tackle rod with 4 pound test and went to work.  I ended up catch white perch, yellow perch, brim, and one bass on the little rod.


























I put the little rod down and hit the bank to do a little bass scouting.  I caught a bowfin right off the bat.  The bowfin, also called mudfish or blackfish and is a very hard fighter with lots of sharp teeth. 




 
 




Then the bass started biting.

Outer Banks Bass Fishing

June 1, 2013

Robert, Randy, and I hit North River for a day of bass fishing.  Fishing has slowed a little with the warmer water so we had to slow down to catch the fish.  We had a fun day and the action started off in the morning with a nice fish.







 
 
 
 
The top water bite has no been very consistent so we had to slow down and fish a Jewel Shakey Head to catch fish. 
 
 
 
























 
 
 
This is the Jewel Shakey Head we were fishing.  They are great bait and the head design makes it easy to fish in heavy wood cover.  Straight tail 5" worms were used on the shakey head.

Outer Banks Bass Fishing

May 30, 2013

Eric and I hit the Pasquotank River to see if the fish were still biting.  The bite had slowed, but there were still fish to be caught.  Most fish were caught on Jewel Shakey Heads with a variety of straight tail worms.  A few were caught on floating worms, but that bite has slowed with warm water temps.
