About Your Trip

Get out there with Captain Ricky and enjoy a fun day on the waters of the Oregon Inlet—one of the best inshore fishing grounds in the Outer Banks. This trip is perfect for folks that would rather stay in sight of land. Troll for hard-fighting Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish, and cross your fingers that you spot a Cobia or a big Red Drum! In addition, you can also bottom-fish for Flounder and jig for inshore panfish such as Croaker, Sea Mullet, Spot, and Weakfish.
