@@adamsons2890 it really depends on water temps. Most of the time, April is still too cold for really good Sheepshead fishing. The past couple years June has been the turn on month. We’ve lucked up in May with full limits if the summer water temps roll in early but if those water temps are still cold, you’ll be working for a handful of fish. I would say June is one of the best months for Sheepshead.

@ Thanks for the reply. We’ll be at Hatteras in May. From Ontario.

@@thirdparty8596 cut bait (which was mostly cut up Pinfish)

@@fishtasy thank you

@@thirdparty8596 thanks for watching

@leiaespadas8862 Long shank #2 and #4 hooks. Mainly squid and shrimp for bait but sandfleas and cutbait work well too.

They have around 40 sheds... thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! They have around 40 sheds at Roy's... I'm not 100% sure what they do during the winter months (most of the time we quit carp fishing when the temps get chilly). I think in the past they have but don't hold me to it.

You can get better holders than those. They make them more compact that only hold at the reel and work very well. I have some extras if you are interested. Not sure where you are located. I live in clemmons NC . Anyway if you want some pics let me know. Have a nice day

Not sure what the rod stands are... we've had them forever. The bite alarms are from Big Money Beepers. They've done well for us so far.

@@nathancoulter9294 they are from Big Money Beepers

They are delicious.

Mmmm, nah… don’t really care about the money. We break even or win a little almost every time we go to this lake and it’s relatively cheap AND CLOSE! It’s personal preference but I’d rather catch 20-30 dink to average size carp with the possibility of catching a good fish (two nights ago 7 fish were caught here all 20+ lbs and you didn’t win money if you didn’t have a fish on the board over 17.2) than sit all night and catch maybe one or two huge carp. To me, that’s booor-ing. I’ll be honest and completely transparent, we are still learning the tricks and secrets and most of the time we can’t keep up with the guys who’ve been doing it regularly for 10-15+ years because we’re relative newbs with our on/off experience of 3ish years… If we went somewhere like you mentioned we’d be toast and that’s NOT fun. The folks at Roy’s have always been super great to us and having fun while learning a thing or two is what it’s about… for us anyways. Not everyone has the big money mentality. I mean it’s A-okay if you do but it’s also perfectly acceptable to not. Sooo, yeah… I’ll stick with my “mud hole.” 😂

Yep, lol. Sand Fleas and then one of us had a fiddler crab out.

Ours is 23.5 feet. If you ever think you might go offshore or want to take more than four people at a time I would recommend a 26 foot one.

It’s easier to find if you go to the photos tab on their page. Post date is 4.28.24

Unfortunately that hole is not going to be there much longer....We have hammered the fish there in the past, especially on a slack tide. Over the last few weeks the dredge working the area has been dumping sand in it and is quickly filling up

They’ve got a few options of Superior there.

@@fishtasy thanks I'm trying to find some hopefully cheaper than Amazon haven't fished in years most of the lakes I knew of are gone now lol

@@barryhess720 not sure where you’re located but David’s Market in N. Wilkesboro has Superior flavoring and tons of other bait stuff.

Soybean / fish food on this day

Chow

I know a lot of ponds in NC quit with chow cause of the heat. I usually fish Lawson's or hilltop or prevettes

@@claytonwilliams5738 they still allow chow at Roy’s but we weren’t using chow on this day. When I say fish food I mean like catfish pellets…

Thanks, Roy’s is one of our favorites.

Obviously you’ve never been to Wards!

@scottbowman5021 I hadn't but Roy's bite just as good

@@JasonCurry-hd6rv might be a good lake but you can’t fish 4 rods at Wards lol! You catch 50 plus with 2 poles

Roys??? Biting mud hole 😂😂😂

We’ve seen dogs there before.

Thank you!

Highway 49 Sporting Goods is my first pick and I have also used Bait on 8 as well. Highway 49 is more convenient for us though.

Yes, it is delayed harvest and that means single hook, unscented artificial baits (which is what we were using), so I’m not sure what you’re referring to on “lure restrictions.” We get checked by game wardens on this stretch of river as well as the Stone Mountain State Park stream 9 times out of the 10 times we go and always get the all clear on our licenses and bait. As far as being wet, we were as wet as the fish were that evening 😂

@@fishtasy good to hear! It sure looked like a rooster tail at the end. Sorry to bother then

@@trevorknowles6739 you’re all good. It was a rooster tail but the kind with a single hook not a treble.

Please do! That would make our day.

Hoping we should be down there Fri June 7 as long as the weather holds up

Thanks!

Thanks! This one was on squid.

@@fishtasy YW! Keep fishing and keep posting 😁

Thanks!

We started seeing it around 10pm and it dimmed out for a bit and then about 2am it flared up pretty good again and then came and went throughout the night.

That's the truth! Thanks for watching!

I know Surf City pier has a blanket license so as long as you’re fishing on the pier, you don’t need any extra licensing. I think Sea View pier is the same but I would call and ask just to be sure.

This past weekend a bunch of dogfish, a few black drum, seen a couple flounder come up (but can’t keep those yet), a few pompano are starting to show up, and always mullet (aka northern kingfish), and bluefish are really starting to fire up too. May/June is a great time as long as the weather is decent. I highly recommend watching the pier cams on surfchex.

@@fishtasy Thank you

I would say the Bonner Bridge Pier would be about the best place.... I have never been that early so I don't know how the bite would be.... but if they can be accessed from shore....it would be right there.

Roy’s Fish Lake is the name of the pond. It’s in Roaring River, NC

Do you do any Striper or Hybrid fishing or just crappie/perch?

@@fishtasy I’ll be taking up striper trolling shortly. I plan on pulling Alabama rigs. I can catch anything that swims, fishing is the only thing I’ve ever been REALLY good at. I’m a good paramedic, a pretty fair blacksmith, but I’m an excellent fisherman. Once I get rolling y’all ought come fish with me. I guarantee you’ll like the price! I’m from Denton, NC.

Yes they are put back into the pay lake. This is technically tournament fishing. We pay a certain amount to fish at this particular ‘enclosed’ pond and money is won for highest weight by winning “pots.” Some of the pay lakes have mats, and some do not (like this one). If a lake doesn’t have the provided landing mats, no one brings their own. The owner of the lake takes care of the fish health… whenever you take the fish to the scales to be weighed, some ponds treat the fish before it’s released but the lakes are maintained by an owner year round. Even if this wasn’t the case, carp are invasive to North American waterways and are encouraged by the wildlife commission to be removed. Bow hunting carp is a popular sport over here.

@@fishtasy it’s crazy to me that a lot of people bow hunt them! As a carp angler from the uk it’s so different to the USA it’s insane! Every lake requires mats and carp care.

@@Alexwillsher I believe it’s largely due to the fact that they are so invasive over here, destroying native fish populations. Pay lakes have just found a way to monetize an otherwise bad situation. Plus, since the pay lakes are all enclosed ponds, the carp in privately owned lakes aren’t interfering with native species populations in the waterways. European carp fishing is similar to how American anglers fish for native trout.

have you guys ever looked into pole/rising float fishing for carp? Japanese and Koreans only use this method. You will catch more and have more fun. check it out!

Amen!
