About Your Guide

Parks Jones

Independent Guide 21 years of exp.

I take great pride in knowing where to catch the fish. I have over 40 years of experience professionally fishing. I started tournament bass fishing at the age of 10, won my first tournament at 15, and went full-time pro at 19 on the B.A.S.S. And FLW tour. Now I fish Redfish tournaments up and down the East coast and have several redfish wins. I have a custom-built Simmons to get you where the fish are fast, safe, and catching! Let my attention to detail and experience help you catch more fish on your next fishing adventure.

About Your Trip

Based out of the Oak Island, this is your ticket to a memorable time on the water.

Come on aboard with Capt. Parks, whose main priority is to get you on some fish. He specializes in light tackle, and fly fishing, depending on the species you’re targeting. Speaking of which, you have the option of 4 to 8-hour trips, where you’ll be fishing for the likes of Spanish Mackerel, Redfish, Flounder, Spotted Seatrout, Tarpon, or Bonito, depending on the specific season and the day’s weather.

Your adventure begins on board a 22’ Simmons Custom boat that can fit a maximum of 4 anglers. The boat is fitted with a wireless trolling motor and power poles .

When it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle, everything you need is included in the price.

I have a blanket fishing licenses to cover everyone onboard. You will not need a fishing license.

You’ll be able to keep any legal species caught during the trip.

All Children are welcome aboard and fish for free under the age of 13. I look forward to helping get the young ones started early.
