Interactive Map of MacKay Island National Wildlife Refuge.

From their site;

Bank fishing and crabbing is permitted year-round in the following areas: the Marsh Causeway (SR 615), the bridge over Corey's Ditch, the Great Marsh Trail, and along Mackay Island Road from SR 615 to the dike gate. From March 15 to October 15 all areas of the refuge are open including the impoundments (pools) beyond the dike gate. These areas may only be accessed by hiking, bicycling, or by boat from Currituck Sound. Striped bass, catfish, perch, and occasionally flounder can be caught from the bridge over Corey's Ditch. Largemouth bass, bream, and catfish are the most commonly caught species in the other areas.

Boating is allowed on refuge waters from March 15 to October 14. The Great Marsh provides an excellent area for canoeing and kayaking. A small boat ramp, located near the dike gate on Mackay Island Road, is also available for access into the marshes.
