trip description for Nearshore Fishing Trip in Harkers Island

Head out with Captain Joe and get ready for an exciting day of fly fishing in the fish-rich North Carolina nearshores! Nearshore fishing trips in the waters just off the coast of Beaufort are a great way for anglers to chase after some exceptional game catches without going too far from the dock. These inshore and nearshore waters are home to a nice selection of popular Mid-Atlantic varieties. On this 4 to 10-hour trip, Captain Joe will take you from Beaufort to neashore areas just off the North Carolina coast. In these waters you'll be going after Bonito, Cobia, King Mackerel, Little Tunny, Redfish, and Spanish Mackerel. You can go after these fish using either light tackle or bottom fishing. Whatever fish you want to go after, Captain Joe will get you set up with the best method and bait! You'll be fishing aboard a 23’ Sea Ox center console with a capacity for 5 people. Equipped with a 150 HP Honda engine, this boat will get you where the fish are biting! It comes with a bimini top, a fish finder, and live well to let you cruise in comfort. Captain Joe will provide all rods, reels, tackle and live bait. All you need to bring are sunglasses, sunscreen, and any snacks or drinks you might need. Come on out with Captain Joe! Read More

trip description for Bluefin on the Surf in Atlantic Beach

In the late fall and early winter months, something crazy happens on the beaches of the Outer Banks: Bluefin Tuna, migrating up the coast, come in close to the shore to gorge on menhaden in the shallow water! Captain Justin, one of the most versatile and experienced captains on the Crystal Coast, has been targeting these migrating fish for years and would love to share this incredible opportunity with you if you're in town between November and December. This is a seasonal trip laser-focused on finding, fighting, and reeling in one of the Atlantic's, biggest, fastest and most impressive fish, the Bluefin Tuna, in meer feet of water. With Captain Justin, you'll head out for a short ride from the dock to the oceanside surf waters. He'll come prepared with all the necessary gear, including top-quality rods and reels, trolling equipment, and most importantly, plenty of expertise for tackling these massive fish. Captain Justin will clean and package your catch for you if you catch some smaller keepers, but it should be noted that any commercial-size fish (73inches or bigger) will be kept by the captain per federal regulations. On the day of the trip, you'll go aboard Captain Justin's 30' Contender center console—a perfect boat for finding, chasing, and landing Tuna. It's equipped with two 300HP Yamaha engines, so you'll spend less time cruising and more time fishing. You'll be set up with everything you need—but when the rod is in your hands, it's just you versus the fish! To make the most of the day, make sure to bring the essentials: Polarized Sunglasses, Hat, Weather-Appropriate Clothing, Sunscreen, and a Camera! Read More

trip description for Nighttime Redfish Trip in Sealevel

The NC inshore is prime territory if you want to hook up big-league Redfish! Join Captain Justin on the inshore waters off of Sealevel, NC, and search for big Reds, Speckled Trout, and even Flounder—all at night! At night, fish behave very differently, and many become more aggressive feeders once the sun sets. You'll chase these fish using classic light-tackle techniques and a combination of live bait and lures. Redfish are one of America's most popular saltwater gamefish for a reason, and they're a blast to catch for seasoned anglers and novices alike. You'll be fishing from Captain Justin's fast, comfortable 27' ProLine center console. She's powered by twin Suzuki engines with a combined 500 horsepower. This versatile boat is perfect for fishing the different conditions around Sealevel, and is super comfortable as well. On board, Captain Justin has a fishfinder, GPS, a live well, and an ice box for your catch! On this adventure, all you need to bring is some appropriate clothing, food, and drinks. There's no sunscreen needed on this night trip. Captain Josh will provide everything else including rods, reels, bait, and tackle. Everything you catch on this adventure will be released to protect the delicate balance of the estuary. This trip should be incredible! Read More

trip description for NC Mackerel Trip in Morehead City

Get ready to chase down some of the Atlantic's tastiest and most exciting gamefish in the blue waters off of Morehead City, NC with Captain Jeffrey. Mackerel—both the smaller Spanish and the larger King species—are widely known for their crazy fighting ability and are a challenge for any angler, no matter how experienced. These fish will leap high out of the water trying to throw your hook, and they'll test your drag reel as they head for the horizon at top speed. These fish often school, so you'll troll at a medium depth, looking to attract them with a variety of lures and baits. Once a Mackerel grabs your hook, get ready for the fight of your life! These fish are fast and will fight you for every inch of line. You'll get off the dock aboard your guide's 24' Carolina Skiff—a great type of boat for fishing everything from flats to estuaries to nearshore waters. It's powered by a 200 HP Suzuki engine, so you'll be on the fish in no time at all. Captain Jeffrey will come prepared with everything you need for a great day, including rods, reels, bait, and tackle. He's an expert in these waters and will do everything he can to get you hooked up on a personal best! Bring along proper clothing, sunscreen, and a pair of polarized sunglasses to maximize your time on the water. Read More

    We had an awesome time with capt. Joe. He worked extremely hard to put us on the fish. Water conditions weren't to our favor, But we will be back next year. Can't wait to fish with our new found friend again. And have another great day on the water. ☆☆☆☆☆

    Daneil is an amazing captain. He made sure that we got a large variety of fishing experiences, we caught so many that we loss count of how many fishes were caught...we just had such an amazing day. My 17 yr old grandson slept nearly the whole way home. Highly recommend him

    Captain Grey was outstanding. Under typically iffy December conditions on Pamlico Sound he put us into trout and drum. I've fished with 4 other charters over the past decade in the Carolinas and Captain Grey was best.
