The waters around Cedar Point and Swansboro offer diverse fishing opportunities throughout the year. Summer flounder are particularly abundant during warmer months, with fish ranging from keeper-sized 15-inchers to trophy specimens exceeding 20 inches.

Red drum patrol the shallow flats, especially during spring and fall migrations, while speckled trout remain active year-round in the grass beds and around docks.
