That is the rod/reel I caught that bull red on. It is a Fenwick Eagle GT, medium action, med fast tip with 15 pound Power Pro Slick 8 Timber brown color braid and a Shimano Stradic 2500FJ. Awesome setup.

Red drum in the slot size of 18-27 inches are some great table fare. Lots of ways to cook them and doesn't matter which one you pic, it will turn out great.

The fishery on the lower Neuse River from New Bern all the way down past Oriental holds some great fishing. All that stretch is considered to be saltwater, except for a few creeks that enter the river. You will find loads of stripers, red drum, flounder and speckled trout. Lots of other fish that are saltwater oriented also fill the bag.
