FishingBald Head Island is close to several wonderful offshore fishing areas, including the Gulf Stream. It comes as no surprise that Bald Head Island offers some of the best fishing in North Carolina! Three of Bald Head's beaches face the Atlantic Ocean, and one faces the mouth of the Cape Fear River. There is also a fishing pier located at the marina's entrance. Frequent catches on the island include Flounder, Drum, Blues, Spanish Mackerel, and King Mackerel. The tidal creeks offer excellent crabbing and cast netting for baitfish. If you want to go clamming, grab a rake and walk out onto the sandbars at low tide. If you're a freshwater angler, Bald Head Island offers several freshwater lagoons with Large Mouth Bass and Tarpon. Be sure not to get too close to the infamous Bald Head Island alligators frequently seen sunbathing along the banks. We have provided Charter Boat Information below, along with a Fishing Schedule and our highly popular North Carolina Fishing Guide. Be sure to also view our Tide Tables for Bald Head Island.
