About Your Trip

Climb aboard with Captain Jason for an unforgettable day chasing North Carolina’s most iconic freshwater fish. Designed for up to two anglers, this trip takes place on a 17' Nitro bass boat, perfectly outfitted for fishing the area’s top lakes and reservoirs. But this isn’t just a fishing trip—it’s a memory-making experience. With a camera in hand and a passion for storytelling, Captain Jason captures every moment so you leave with more than fish—you leave with a custom photo book and a day you’ll never forget. After all, “Don’t just catch fish—catch memories.”

Throughout the trip, Captain Jason will guide you to the best bite while photographing your time on the water—from hooksets and high-fives to quiet moments under the morning sun. At the end of the day, you’ll receive a beautifully crafted photo book filled with highlights from your trip, preserving the adventure in a way that’s as unique as the day itself.

You’ll target a variety of species based on season and conditions, including hard-fighting Blue Catfish, aggressive Channel Cats, schooling Crappie, and both Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass. Whether you’re vertical jigging for slabs, slow-drifting cut bait for cats, or working crankbaits and soft plastics along brushy shorelines, Captain Jason will dial in the right tactics to match your goals and experience level.

All rods, reels, tackle, bait, and fishing licenses are included, and Jason’s got top-tier gear ready to go. All you need to bring are drinks, snacks, and weather-appropriate clothing. This two-person setup is perfect for couples, friends, or parent-and-child pairs looking for a relaxed, hands-on, and truly personal day on the water.

With Captain Jason, you’re not just chasing fish—you’re creating something you can look back on for years. Let the stories (and the photos) speak for themselves.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass.

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, 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.
