April is when I would target. Often they will show on the south point of ocracoke in late March. Usually 2nd or 3rd week of April through middle of May give you a good chance to have the right conditions. Its all about weather. Water temp is key. If the winds go hard from the north or west and push the warm water back out it shuts off. Water temps can drop 10+ degrees in a tide. It can take days (or more like a lifetime) of good sw blow to push the warm water back in. I've been going most springs for last 8 years or so and it is such a mixed bag with the weather that you just go and if the weather cooperates you count your blessings. When it is good it is unbelievable.
