Mixed Bag - Morehead City Port

Light North winds allowed for a perfect day on the water in Morehead City. November 1st is a time for trout fishing and deer hunting, but I decided to take a different approach. Parboiled sand fleas and shrimp were all that was needed to put 6 different types of fish in the cooler. This would be a fun and easy day of fishing for anyone, especially for a family with small children. I am really enjoying this cool down and can't wait for the water to get chilly!

Catch Mud Crabs under "stuff", below the high tide line (WEAR GLOVES, oyster cuts are nasty). The purple crabs with spots and striped legs are stone crabs and are illegal to possess.

Catch Sea Urchins on pilings and other structure below the high tide line (WEAR GLOVES, the spines are non-venomous but can leave splinters and oyster cuts are nasty), I recommend using a crab net.
