Blackfin Snapper
Hatteras, North Carolina, puts you in prime position to target Blackfin Snapper in the Gulf Stream. This world-renowned current brings warm, nutrient-rich waters close to shore, attracting a variety of pelagic species, including Blackfin. The best time to target them here is typically from late spring through fall, when the water temperatures are warmest. Look for areas with significant bottom structure or floating debris, as these provide habitat for the baitfish that Blackfin feed on. A key tip for Hatteras is to pay attention to the Gulf Stream eddies and temperature breaks. These areas often concentrate fish. The Oregon Inlet Fishing Center is a popular departure point, providing easy access to the Gulf Stream. Be sure to check the marine forecast before heading out, as the weather in this area can change rapidly.
