Fishing Wilmington with Capt. Seth Vernon

April 09, 2021

From the April 7th, 2021 Program, Segment 3:

The Carolina's offer year-round pursuits for the outdoors.  Coastal fishing is just one of those pursuits & fly and light tackle fishing in the Wilmington area.  We head towards Oak Island, Topsail & Wrightsville Beach & more with Capt. Seth Vernon of Double Haul Guide Service.  Spring fills the shad in rivers & redfish & speckled trout inshore.  Gear like fly rods in 7 to 9 weights are perfect for catching big fish with Capt. Seth Vernon.

Vernon shares how time fishing from his skiff goes about.  His skill in finding fish, making the boat work for his anglers & the common challenges for fly fishing in salt water & working on your double haul cast  before your trip.  Fly line management is also something to work on before heading out.

We also learn about Seth's film & brand new podcast, Guidelines.

If you're interested in learning to fly cast or chat about fly gear, then contact or call the fly shop,  Jesse Brown's Outdoors.
