Fly Fishing in Bald Head Island

This summer I am taking a vacation to Bald Head Island, NC around July 4th. Naturally, despite the fact that I'm going with my girlfriend, I am going to try and fish as much as possible. I have an 8wt rod which I have used on canadian lakes but have never taken it to the salt. My questions are. Is this rod going to cut it? Is there any good salt-water fly fishing there? Does anyone know anything about fly fishing in this location? I have tried the internet to recieve some answers here, but with little luck. Any help would be appreciated...right down to what fly's I should be bringing.

GBurg,
What sites on the internet have you tried? I recommend you go to [url=http://www.intracoastalangler.com:63212]www.intracoastalangler.com[/url:63212]

If you call them (ask for Seth or Stuart), they'll be able to tell you everything you'll need to know.

I hope this helps.

I will be sure to get in touch with them. Thanks for the help!
