    Another untapped NC jigging fishery

    2-2-09 out of Topsail. I bet the ledge we were on had a few thousand of these on it. We got seven fish in seven drops and got the heck out of there looking for Grouper. Also got a 12lb Red grouper on a jig.[IMG][IMG][IMG][IMG][IMG][/IMG][/IMG][/IMG][/IMG][/IMG]

    The next bite on a jig.
    Good job Mike. I heard of cobias on a wreck a few months ago. I guess you never know what you can get.

    Nice going on the drum!! I used to catch alot of those flounder jigging offshore in the winter. They are either there and eating everything in sight or nothing at all. It is a def. a zero or hero thing when targeting drum on the jig. Looks like Capt. Joe came across the MOTHER LOAD yesterday!!!! Congrats on the very fine catch!

    Just over 100' about 30 miles.

    Cobia are another fish you can target with jigs. There will be plenty of them in this same range in the upcoming months. And its always fun when they come up to the boat to say hello.

    I build rods. Originally inspired by Marvin from Bugs Bunny but I think I'm going to call it 'My Wife' cause its 4'11" sexy and tough as nails. Oh yeah, twisted too.
