Oriental, North Carolina - Saltwater Fishing Report
Pamlico Sound/Neuse River
Tarpon fishing has picked up over the last week out of Oriental. The fish have been seen from the Sound up river past Oriental with good numbers being caught on cut bait. Look for this fishing to continue to be good over the next several weeks.
We are also seeing a few big red drum showing ....a good sign the drum fishing is about to kick off!
