Local Species Insights: Spotted Weakfish
The spotted weakfish (also known as speckled trout) is one of North Carolina's most popular inshore gamefish. These fish are typically found around grass flats, oyster beds, and deeper channels around Cedar Point. They prefer moving water and often gather near structures where baitfish concentrate. Captain Ryan targets these fish using light tackle, which provides exciting action when they strike.
Weakfish are most active during dawn and dusk, making early morning and late afternoon trips particularly productive. Their feeding patterns are heavily influenced by tidal movements, with the first few hours of a falling tide often producing the best results in this area. Seasonal patterns matter too—spring and fall typically offer the most consistent action for Cedar Point anglers targeting this species.
