If you are looking to fill the cooler with delicious fish and get your dinners sorted out, give Fillet And Release Fishing Charter a try. They can cater to anglers of all skill levels and will gladly accommodate even the most die-hard fishing enthusiasts!

All you have to do is choose a trip that suits your schedule and hop onboard a 36' Phoenix offshore sportfishing boat. Its twin 370 HP Cummins engines will power you to the hottest grounds in the area, while the top-notch navigational and fishfinding electronics will save your time while you're looking for a big one.

The boat features a flybridge to spot any top-water feeders. It also has a private toilet for your maximum comfort, a fighting chair, outriggers, and downriggers. Finally, it is rigged with a livewell which will be loaded with bait to make sure nothing can resist your hooks.

Explore the beautiful waters of Carolina Beach and get your hands on anything that lives from 1 mile all the way up to 50 miles offshore.

Head a bit further out for Mahi Mahi, Cobia, Amberjack, Grouper, and Snapper. If that's not enough, venture 30-50 miles out for some trolling/bottom fishing action, adding Black Seabass to the list.

All trips include the use of gear, tackle, lures, and bait, as well as fishing licenses. The trip doesn't include the Mates tip its customary for 20% or more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Best charter ever!
4 Hour Trip (AM) on August 17, 20251 adult2 children

I usually do a father/sons dishing charter everywhere we go on vacation. This year during our trip to Carolina beach we decided to do a four hour. We knew nothing of the crews or boats down here, but happened to talk to the mate on the fillet and release one night while we were walking around and he was awesome. We booked with them and it was an amazing trip. Captain got us on Spanish mackerel and the boys slayed it for hours. About 36 fish on board and they learned a ton about the area and fishing from both the captain and the first mate. These guys are the best, you Won’t go wrong with them!

8 Hour Trip- Live Bait on August 16, 20255 adults

If you’re looking for THE BEST captain and deckhand in Carolina beach, then look no further than the Fillet and release. Cpt. Jeremy put us on the fish and made us feel like life long friends. The deckhand, Hunter, was absolutely amazing. Not only did he make sure we were always taken care of, but he went above and beyond anything we could’ve expected. He taught me so much about the equipment and extremely knowledgeable about fishing and techniques. I couldn’t say enough about these two guys and everything they did for us. If you want an amazing experience on a beautiful boat, then Fillet and release is the boat for you. Amazing day and will definitely be back to fish with these guys again.

Awesome Father and Son 5 hour trip.
5 Hour Trip (AM) on June 24, 20262 adults

They put us on good fish. My son caught 2 big Grey Sea Trout that just missed trophy citation size by a couple ounces. He caught half a dozen other fish and a shark 3-4'. I caught 5 sharks all in the 3-4' range. Together we caught probably 24 fish between us.
