Pirates Life 4 Us Fishing Charters offers child and family-friendly fishing trips in the beautiful inshore waters of the Emerald Isle and Swansboro area. Fish for Red Drum, Flounder, Speckled Trout, with trip times and durations to suit you.
Captain Tim runs every trip with a focus on fun and learning how to bring in fish all by yourself. He aims to provide not just great fish, but great memories and skills which will stay with you for the rest of your life!
You will be fishing aboard a 24’ Bay Rider center console, freshly-built in 2019. The boat can carry six anglers safely and can reach speeds of 52 knots on the way to the fishing grounds.
But the thing that makes Pirates Life 4 Us special isn’t the boat, it’s the crew. Capt. Tim runs a family charter business. He works with his kids on most charters, and he’s proud of it. Getting children involved in fishing, seeing their faces as they haul in their first fish, passing on the skills to make them great anglers – these are the things he loves about his job.
Every trip is built for the group at hand. If you’re all seasoned sportfishers, he and his crew will work hard to bring in a real record-breaker. Out with friends or with the family, and just looking for some easy catches? He’ll get you reeling in fish after fish and having a great time doing so!
Captain Tim gets a brand new motor every 5 years, and this year he got a new Yamaha 250 SHO engine!
Whatever you’re after, Capt. Tim has you covered. All tackle, baits, lures, and licenses are included. So jump aboard and get ready for an action-packed day of fun inshore fishing!
