About Your Guide

Harvey W.

Independent Guide

Hi! I'm Captain Harvey Wall. I'm a Charter Captain in Ocean Isle Beach NC and the owner of Salty Dawg Fishing Charters.

If you're going to fish with me for a few hours then I'm sure you will want to know a little about me. I'm a North Carolina native, a U.S. Army veteran, a graduate of the U.S. Maritime Academy, I hold a Master's License from the U.S. Coast Guard, and I'm a member of the Pro Staff for Bass Pro Shops

With many years of experience as a recreational fisherman, tournament fisherman, and Ocean Isle Fishing Guide, I can provide an enjoyable and memorable day on the water for novice anglers to experienced anglers and solo trips to family fishing trips.

My Service Area
I am based in Ocean Isle Beach (or OIB as everyone calls us), which is just north of the NC / SC state line. I fish the island beaches of Brunswick County NC: Ocean Isle Beach, Holden Beach, Sunset Beach, Calabash, as well as the South Carolina beaches in Little River SC, and North Myrtle Beach SC. It sounds like a big area, but it's just a short boat ride along these barrier islands and beaches in Brunswick County NC.

The Fish We Will Catch
My Inshore Fishing Charters offer opportunities to catch Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and Black Drum, and many other species. My Nearshore Fishing Charters target Spanish Mackerel and King Mackerel when trolling and, my Nearshore bottom-fishing charters mostly target Sea Bass, Flounder, Bull Drum, Cobia, and an occasional Grouper. My Shark Fishing Charters, which are very safe and are a lot of fun, target various species of sharks from 10 to 60+ pounds. Lastly, one of my most popular trips are my 2 hour Kids Fishing Charters, which target fun, easy to catch species like Puffer Fish, Whiting, Pigfish, Pinfish, Croakers, etc... The kids are in constant action for 2 hours and the limited time keeps them from being in the elements for too long.

Charter Captain Qualifications
I am a North Carolina native and I've fished NC from the mountains to the Coast my entire life. I began fishing as a kid an fishing inland and I progessively grew as an angler throughout my life. My current qualifications to be your Captain are:

Graduate of the U.S. Maritime Academy
Masters License from the U.S. Coast Guard
Certified in First-Aid and CPR
Began as a Fishing Guide in NC in 2000
Full-time fishing guide / Captain
Member of the Pro Staff for Bass Pro Shops
U.S. Army Veteran - former Paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division

If you have any questions about any of the fishing charters I offer, please feel free to message me.

Thank you for checking out my bio page and I'm looking forward to meeting you and helping you to have a great day on the water!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to 1,600+ quality, vetted fishing and hunting guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
