I don't have much experience there, but buddies who do like a couple of shorter creeks (like Batchelor) slightly upstream on the Neuse. they mostly fish the deep holes with minnows the last couple of months.

Some good info and the guy who started it has followed up over the winter fishing the area pretty heavily.
