As I sit here in Charlotte, between the New River I canoe and catch smallmouth bass in and yours, I will say I hear very little about the fishing in the coastal New River . There seem to be no local reports in the CLT, RDU, or ILM papers and not much on the internet. As always, look for deep holes in the main channel, cut off sections and any structure such as piers, etc. depending on target species. Good luck!
