Successful Memorial Day fishing the beach for Spanish. Palm Tree Island was packed today and Mase was way worse. Hope everyone is safe on the water.

Had a great morning off of Oak Island today. Caught 7 kings, 2 big Spanish, and 4 big hammerhead sharks. Missed over 10 fish too. Some of the best nearshore Kingfishing I have experienced in the Spring time. Give me a call for a trip.

Had a great first family boat morning on this Good Friday. Slick calm ocean and even caught a few fish for the kids. Making memories and training the kids to run the boat.

WB boat ramp was completely filled at 7am so we trucked down to trusty CB for our morning on the water.

Excited to be apart of this awesome new 37VH Freeman, Pura Vida. I will be running a few select trips on the boat during this season. With Grouper season starting May 1st 🤞, we are booking trips now. Please message me directly if you are interested in getting out on this beast. My dad, Rod Bierstedt, will be the other captain running the boat this year.

Always continue to learn from your peers. Anytime I'm at one of these fishing schools and I don't have a seminar, I sit in on something that interests me. .post

Hope everyone enjoyed the snow day as much as our family and friends have today. The boat and truck are covered in snow wishing for warmer weather.
