Yelloweye Snapper
Hatteras, North Carolina, provides access to the prolific waters of the Gulf Stream, creating a unique environment for Yelloweye Snapper fishing. These snapper are commonly found around deep-water wrecks, rock outcroppings, and ledges well offshore. The peak season typically runs from late spring through early fall when the Gulf Stream pushes warm water closer to the coast. Finding the right structure is key. Many local charters utilize GPS coordinates of known wrecks and bottom features. A helpful tip is to use braided line with a fluorocarbon leader to maximize sensitivity and abrasion resistance in these deeper waters. Popular baits include cut squid, sardines, and live bait. Be aware that offshore conditions can change rapidly, so always monitor the weather forecast and ensure your vessel is properly equipped. Hatteras is a world-class fishing destination with experienced captains ready to guide you to these deep-water treasures.
