Giant bluefin season officially closes at 11:30 pm today; however, that does not slow down the bluefin charters. We are allowed to keep any fish under 73" and there are a bunch of fish under that threshold out there. Yesterday, we released 4 bluefin about 68-70", caught a nice wahoo about 30 lbs, and a few king mackeral. Not a bad day at all. Still time to get in on the bluefin action

Bluefin tuna are here

The bluefin tuna have arrived, and our season is open. Come experience, the thrill of hooking into the fish of a lifetime. The season will not be open long, so, don’t delay, book your trip today.

    We had a wonderful trip. Clay put us on the fish. Everyone caught multiple large fish. We were all active pulling in fish the whole time. Everyone was happy with the trip. I highly recommend Clay an experienced hard-working captain who provided my grandsons and their great grandfather with a very fun fishing trip.

    We did a sunset boat trip, had a great time with a beautiful view. Capt. Bob was informative, funny and friendly.

    Trip: Sunset Trip

  • ★★★★★
    After a long week, I was looking forward to a nice, relaxing night on the sunset cruise. I could tell from Captain Bob’s texts prior to the cruise that he had a good sense of humor and was a great guy. He did not disappoint. He was good company, and we have a very relaxing evening. Very grateful that I was able to do this, and will definitely book Captain Bob next time that I’m in OBX.
