About Your Trip

Head out with Captain Joe and get ready for an exciting day of fly fishing in the fish-rich North Carolina inshores!

Inshore fishing trips in the waters throughout 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 3/4 or full-day trip, Captain Joe will take you
from Beaufort to the inshore areas like the Beaufort Inlet, the Bogue Sound, the Core Sound, the Newport River, or the North River. In these waters you'll be going after Redfish, Spanish Mackerel, and Speckled Trout. To go after these fish you can use a few different methods such as light tackle, bottom fishing and trolling. 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. Book your trip today and let Captain Joe take care of the rest!

Captain Joe has been fishing the waters of coastal North Carolina his entire life, with over 30 years experience. He has traveled the Eastern seaboard as a professional waterman, working in commercial and recreational fishing most of his life. His knowledge for the species he pursues is never quenched, and he's always striving to increase and refine his skill set.

Captain Joe strives to give you the experience of a lifetime. Whether it be light tackle or fly, near coastal
or in the marsh, from the boat or the beach, he’ll put you on the fish. The sizzling heat of your fly reel being peeled to the backing at lighting speeds or freight train runs of old in the Pamlico Sound on a spinning reel; Whatever your choice of quarry Captain Joe will hook you up!

Captain Joe’s family has been in the tidewater region since the beginning of the Virginia Colony. His great Grandfather was a registered guide on the Pamlico River guiding thrill seeking anglers to their challenge of the world class Red Drum fishery in the early 1900’s. Captain Joe carries on his family heritage of vast local knowledge steeped in coastal folk lore and incorporates that into your customized fishing experience.

If you're looking for a passionate fisherman who can tell you generation-old tips, fun facts and stories about the waters you're fishing, this is the guide for you!

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. ☆☆☆☆☆
