Welcome to J&J Inshore Charters, your fishing adventure starts here!
The fishing has been great the last 10 years here around the Ocean Isle Beach, NC area. Come enjoy a peaceful day on the water where catching fish is only part of the experience. My name is, Capt. Jacob Frick, who is dedicated to sharing a great fishing experience with you. Many folks on my trips have seen dolphins, sea turtles, deer, and bald ealges. I look forward to each and every trip because you just never know what you might see. Come join me for an exciting day on the water.

Just as expected...the action has really heated up. Live mullet minnows and tiger minnows are everywhere. The flounder are hammering any live bait rigged on a carolina rig and artificials in various colors. Clients have been experiecning double digit catches of flounder, a few trout, and the ocassional redfish. Some of the highlights this month was John Waldbillig with a 10lb+ bluefish. Myself landing a nice 5.9lb flounder and a 26" 6.6lb redfish on Bass Assassin's 4" Sea shad in the sand trout color. Alan and Dorrie celebrating there 12th wedding anniversary with us, both landing red drum, flounder, and gray trout. Several other groups have enjoyed success this month with me. The month of May should be awesome! Don't miss out! Check out this

The water has come alive in March. Small fry is hatching out everywhere and it looks like it is going to be an early start to the year. The red drum have been difficult, but the trout and flounder have been very active. My son Jake and I got out on a few occassions and hammered the trout. My clients have enjoyed catching trout, flounder, and the ocassional red drum. I expect things to get more consistent as our water continues to warm.

The inconsistent weather has also made the fishing inconsistent. It will get absolutely gorgeous for a few days and the fish will bite on the tail end just before a cold front hits us. It takes a few days for the fish to adjust to changing conditions before eating again. Our conditions have been up and down every few days making it hard for them to make that adjustment. Get three days of the same weather in a row and game on! Here are a few pics of the days and nights we decided to fish. Also check out Jeffery Weeks new book about the fishing in our area.

Happy New Year!!! The trout are still biting and the redfish are schooled up on the flats. The porpoises and swinging weather patterns are keeping the redfish on the move. We are steadily hunting them down, finding several on the black mud flats one day and only a few in shallow water pools the next. It has been a ton of fun hunting and finding these fish. Catching a few has just put the icing on the cake!! I love it! See ya on the water!

The holiday season has made it tough, finding time to get on the water between shopping, eating, and visiting family has been the challenge. The fish are waiting on us though. The cold water has them packed up into tight schools. It may take a little time to locate a good school, but once you do, game on! I will leave you with two links to youtube slide shows I have made from this past season. Keep in mind that the
red drum slide show has red drum in it that were caught in Janurary! The
trout slide show is from this November. Turn the speakers up and enjoy the music! See ya on the water!

The trout bite has been on fire. Floating live shrimp under a cork or fishing artificails with light jigheads has been the trick. An occassional flounder and some red drum are also being caught in the shallows. See ya on the water!
October 2011
The redfish bite has been strong. Lots of fish in the 23 to 25 inch range biting on mullet and live shrimp. Flounder are abundant and biting on live finger mullet. Speckled trout are starting to show up and are biting on artificail grubs. Water color is good, water temperature is holding around 70 degrees, and the bait is thick. See ya on the water!
We hope to see you again! Check back later for new updates to our website. There's much more to come!
