Grunt
Targeting grunt around Hatteras, North Carolina, presents a unique saltwater opportunity. While not the most glamorous species, grunts are abundant and readily accessible from a variety of locations. Hatteras's location along the Outer Banks means you can find them inshore around docks, bridges, and oyster beds in the Pamlico Sound. They also congregate around nearshore wrecks and reefs in the Atlantic, making them accessible to both boaters and surfcasters to a degree. Spring and fall are prime times as water temperatures are moderate, and the fish are actively feeding. For surfcasters, try fishing around the pilings of the Bonner Bridge or along the rock groins near the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. For boaters, check out the numerous artificial reefs marked on charts just a few miles offshore. Local tip: Fresh shrimp or squid on a simple bottom rig is hard to beat. The grunts around Hatteras tend to be smaller, but what they lack in size, they make up for in numbers!
