The North Carolina Outer Banks are an offshore fishing dream. Their remarkable geography and underwater topography make them a fishing mecca and the jewel of the east coast. Outer Banks offshore fishing is heightened by the proximity to the continental shelf. The ledge (of the continental shelf) is only about 30 miles east of North Carolina’s Oregon Inlet and Hatteras Inlet. At the shelf, the water depth free falls from 100 fathoms (600 feet) to 1000 fathoms (6,000 feet). This mixing of deep water with warm shallow water is a gamefish’s dream. Young, fresh baitfish move offshore and become easy meals for opportunistic gamefish!
Outer Banks offshore fishing is also improved by the warm-water Gulf Stream that flows northward from Florida. The Gulf Stream brings warm water and nutrients to the NC OBX coast. In opposition to the Gulf Stream, the cold-water Labrador current flow southward from Newfoundland down the east coast. Where do the meet? You guessed it…the NC Outer Banks! You can imagine the rich diversity of sport fishing the Outer Banks enjoys!
“Graveyard of the Atlantic”
But wait; there’s more. The Outer Banks is also known to mariners as the “Graveyard of the Atlantic.” Thousands of shipwrecks dot the coast providing prime fish habitat in this already nutrient (and bait) rich environment. To say that Outer Banks offshore fishing is epic could be an understatement. You truly can’t appreciate it until you’ve seen it with your own two eyes.
