Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 11:3 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

Next New Moon in ~16 days on 9th November
Full Moon is generally a productive time for fishing - especially night fishing. Bright nights mean that many predators feed more actively during the night. During full moon the gravitational pull is in line with the gravitational pull of the sun, affecting all wildlife and increasing feeding behaviour.
  • Distance to earth:
    380,340 km
    Proximity:
    59.5 %
We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.

Fishing Overview Laurinburg

Fishing in Laurinburg, NC centers on classic Sandhills water: shallow, tea-stained ponds, small city lakes, and nearby blackwater creeks that offer consistent action almost all year. Largemouth bass and panfish are the primary draw, with catfish and chain pickerel giving anglers dependable backup plans when conditions turn tough. This is a highly bank-accessible area, so you don’t need a big boat to catch fish.

Seasonal patterns around Laurinburg follow water temperature. In late winter and early spring, bass and crappie stage on the first depth breaks, creek channels, and any wood close to slightly deeper water. Slow-rolled spinnerbaits, lipless crankbaits, and small jigs score well until the spawn, when soft plastics like stickbaits and creature baits fished around shoreline brush, laydowns, and shallow pockets shine. Crappie congregate on brush and bridge pilings; 1/32–1/16 oz hair or tube jigs under a float are reliable.

By summer, most fisheries in and around Laurinburg warm quickly, pushing the best action to low light. Dawn and dusk are prime for topwater bass on Dragon Park Lake and similar ponds. Walk-the-dog baits, buzzbaits, and frogs over grass and around shallow wood are highly productive. Midday, shift to Texas-rigged worms, shaky heads, and jigs pitched directly into shade—overhanging trees, docks, culverts, and beaver huts. Catfish bite best on warm nights; cut shad, chicken liver, or commercial stink baits on Carolina rigs soaked on channel edges and the deepest holes in local ponds are tough to beat.

Fall brings a strong shallow bite as baitfish migrate into the backs of coves and feeder creeks. Cover water with squarebill crankbaits and small spinnerbaits in the 3–6 ft range, targeting any isolated stump or patch of grass. Panfish school tight in this season; a simple red worm, cricket, or small jig under a fixed float is deadly along riprap, rocky corners of dams, and the first drop off the bank. Winter fishing stays viable thanks to the region’s generally mild climate: downsize to finesse presentations—3–4 inch soft plastics, small jigs, and slow presentations near the deepest structure available in each pond or lake.

Habitat and access near Laurinburg is dominated by small- to mid-sized manmade lakes, farm ponds (where access is granted), and offshoots of the Lumber River system. In the darker, tannin-stained creeks, focus on outside bends, logjams, and undercut banks for bass, bowfin, and pickerel. In clearer ponds and lakes, fish riprap dams, submerged roadbeds, and any visible wood. Shoreline vegetation—water willow, pads, and sparse grass—often holds bluegill and bass in just 1–3 ft of water.

Practical tactics are straightforward. Carry two or three rods: a medium-heavy casting rod for jigs and Texas rigs, a medium rod for cranks and spinnerbaits, and a light or ultralight spinning rod for crappie and bream. In this region, natural colors rule—green pumpkin, junebug, black/blue, and shad patterns. For bank fishing, travel light with a backpack, a compact tackle tray, and a small landing net. Work methodically: fan-cast an area, change angles, then move 20–30 yards at a time until you contact fish. For kayak and jon-boat anglers, quietly parallel the bank and pitch to every piece of cover; these smaller waters fish “spot specific,” and a single laydown can hold multiple bass or a full school of crappie.
