bernieNC Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 If it is large specs you are looking for the New River is a lot closer to home. Between my wife and I, over the winter, we put a good dozen in the boat over 26". A couple were right at 28". All swam away happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topshelf 2 Posted April 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Hi Bernie , thanks for the heads up on new river ,sounds like I might have to look in to it a little more . do you put in @ a state ramp ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernieNC Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Think of the New River as two halves, upper and lower. In the winter we fish the upper half and trailer a G3 and put in at the state ramp at the bridge in Jacksonville. During warmer weather I fish the lower half and run the Pathy from home (I’m on the ICW just outside of Lejeune on the Swansboro side). There is a state ramp in Snead’s Ferry for good access to the lower half. Most of the “good” trout fishing is in the creeks off the main river. Hope this helps.
