Redfish Action Heats Up: Wanchese Inshore Fishing Report
Hot bite and happy crew! Summer fishing in Wanchese, NC kicked off with a bang as I took Philip out for an early morning adventure on the Pamlico Sound with Above C Level Adventures.

Roanoke Island Inshore Fishing Adventure with Above C Level
What a day out on the water with Joe and their crew! We had the chance to go on a Private 4 To 6 Hour Inshore Fishing Trip with Above C Level Adventures, and it was an absolute blast. June is prime time for inshore fishing around Roanoke Island, with the warm waters and long days creating ideal conditions to target a variety of species. We met up at 4457 Mill Landing Rd early that morning, got our gear ready, and headed out to our first spot. The conditions were perfect - clear skies, calm waters, and plenty of baitfish activity to get the fish fired up. We started out jigging and trolling, covering different depths to see what the Grey Triggerfish were keying in on that day. It wasn't long before we started getting some solid hookups, the rods bending as the fish put up a great fight. As we worked our way around the flats and along the structure, we mixed it up with some deep sea, bow fishing, heavy tackle, and light tackle presentations. The variety of techniques really seemed to do the trick, as we continued to boat fish after fish. The best part was seeing the looks on the crew's faces each time someone set the hook - the pure excitement and joy of landing a feisty Grey Triggerfish is what these trips are all about. If you're looking to experience some world-class inshore fishing around Roanoke Island, I can't recommend the Private 4 To 6 Hour Inshore Fishing Trip with Above C Level Adventures enough. Whether you're a seasoned angler or picking up a rod for the first time, we'll put you on the fish and make sure you have an unforgettable day on the water. The variety of techniques, the stunning scenery, and the camaraderie of the crew - that's what it's all about. So what are you waiting for? Book your trip today and let's go catch some fish!

Captain gave us every chance to reel in Redfish and Trout, providing top-notch gear and sharing his extensive knowledge. Despite the challenging northwest winds, we managed to catch two Redfish. It was still a great family experience, and we’re excited for our next trip!
