About Your Trip

We will usually run about 20 miles offshore to where the higher relief ledges and wrecks can stretch for miles. Big depth changes offshore usually mean more schools of bait and more predator fish chasing them. I like to maximize fishing time so we will usually start on the inshore edge of where the best action has been and work our way further offshore. King Mackerel are the majority of what we will catch, with Amberjack, Barracuda, Mahi and possibly a Sailfish mixing in. This trip is for those who love to be far out to sea for an extended period of time. I will clean your fish and bag the filets when we get back to the dock.

About Your Guide

Captain Ger

Independent Guide

I first started fishing in Wrightsville Beach when my Dad used to take me to Johnnie Mercer's pier when I was about seven years old. Back then it was made out of wood, and I still remember the feeling of walking down that pier and looking at the waves below through the gaps in the boards. I started fishing offshore as I got older on boats that belonged to good friends, and after a lot of growing up and figuring out what I wanted to do with my life, I finally got a boat of my own back in 2002. I got my license shortly thereafter and have been making my living on the water ever since. The most rewarding thing about being a charter captain is taking people offshore for their first time and seeing how excited they get when they reel in their first fish, and then reel in another one, and another one.

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
