Holden Beach Fishing

Many varieties of fish are abundant in the waters surrounding Brunswick County and each of the local beaches has at least one full service fishing pier. Bluefish and spots can be caught in the fall and Spanish mackerel and spots are available in the spring, as well as shrimp and drum which are caught in the spring and summer. The salt marshes offer winter trout, channel bass and croaker, where oysters and clams are abundant along the Intracoastal Waterway and back bay areas. Ocean access through several inlets led to the Gulf Stream where red snapper, grouper, tuna and more are plentiful.
Recreational fresh-water fishing licenses are required by law and you can obtain a license from the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission at 888.248.6834. For more information about fishing in our area, visit www.ncwildlife.org.
