About Your Trip

If you ever needed a reason to get out and explore the beautiful water and amazing fishing off of Harker's Island, NC, this is it. Captain Jason has fished this area for his whole life, and knows how to create a perfect fishing experience for every type of angler, from veteran fish-fighters to families with kids. On this trip, you'll go after all the North Carolina sportfish, including Redfish, Black Drum, Spotted Seatrout, Cobia, Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel, Black Seabass, Flounder, Sharks, Bluefish, and Bonito. Suffice to say that if it swims, Captain Jason will help you hook it.

You'll get off the dock aboard Captain Jason's 22' Kencraft Bayrider skiff, powered by an ultra-reliable Yamaha 150 HP four-stroke engine. Because this is an inshore/nearshore trip, you can expect to be on the fish fast, so be prepared to start fighting quick! Many of the species you'll be targeting are widely known for their fighting abilities, so make sure to bring your A-game. Captain Jason will bring everything else, including rods, reels, bait, and tackle.

To maximize your experience on the water, please remember sunscreen, proper clothing, and a pair of polarized sunglasses to help you hone in on fish. Get ready for a great trip!
