Need some OBX help

Heading to OBX - Naggs Head, near the pier in mid august to sweat my nuts off on the beach. Any suggestions as to what to bring for the surf? Probably do some bait fishing at night from shore and some daybreak plugging. Might look at doing a charter if the budget is there.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Small metal and epoxy type jigs for Spanish Macs and blue fish. You can get northern kingfish (called sea mullet or whiting down there), croaker, pompano, on light tackle same way you can porgies up here. Whiting are delicious. Have fun. Also, head an hour south if you get a chance. It is like the difference between Cony island and Wellfleet.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

Thanks. Going to bring the range surf gear and a 12' bait caster that I can throw 5 oz a long way. See if we can't do some beach shaking.

One other thing to consider... Since you will be up that way it is probably worth checking out the area around Bodie Island light. There is walk in access to the sound side. Not sure what it is like in August, but it is worth checking out or asking about.
