As of October 26, 2024, the fishing scene around Wilmington, North Carolina, is looking promising, especially with the cooler weather setting in.

### Weather and Tidal Conditions
Today, you can expect a partly cloudy sky with temperatures ranging from the mid-60s to the mid-70s. The sunrise is at around 7:30 AM, and sunset will be at about 6:15 PM. Tides are crucial, and for today, the high tide is expected at 9:30 AM, followed by a low tide at 3:30 PM.

### Fish Activity
The fish activity has been quite vibrant in the area. Red drum action inside the waters has been steady, with slot-sized fish and some over-slot fish showing up at the jetties. Anglers have been successful using live mullet and cut baits, especially around hard structures like docks and oyster bars.

Speckled trout are starting to show up more frequently, particularly in creek mouths, grass lines, and oyster beds. Topwater plugs, jerk baits, MirrOlures, and soft plastic swim baits have been effective for catching these trout.

Spanish mackerel and bluefish action is picking back up, with anglers having success trolling Clarkspoons and mackerel trees along the beachfronts and jetties. Nearshore waters are also seeing false albacore and some big schools of bluefish in the 20-30 foot water depths.

### Best Lures and Bait
For red drum, live or cut mullet on Carolina rigs are almost a sure bet. For speckled trout, topwater plugs, jerk baits, MirrOlures, and soft plastic swim baits are working well. Spanish mackerel and bluefish are hitting Clarkspoons and mackerel trees, while live baits pulled along the beachfronts are also effective.

### Hot Spots
Some of the best spots to fish include the jetties, where you can catch slot-sized red drum and some over-slot fish. Creek mouths, grass lines, and oyster beds are hot spots for speckled trout. The beachfronts and nearshore areas are ideal for targeting spanish mackerel and bluefish.

In summary, with the cooler weather, the fish are becoming more active, making it a great time to get out on the water around Wilmington. Make sure to check the tidal conditions and adjust your fishing spots accordingly. Good luck out there
