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.
Spend your day battling various types of Sharks, such as Tiger, Blacktip, Spinner, Blacknose, Sand, and many more. Check the bite nearshore for Spanish Mackerel, Kingfish, and Bluefish. 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

4 Hour Trip (AM)
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
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.

6 Hour Trip – Live Bait
Had an awesome day on this fishing boat! The crew was knowledgeable and super friendly, guiding us to a hot spot where we hauled in a bucket full of Spanish mackerel. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and perfect for a fun day on the water. Highly recommend for a fantastic fishing adventure!

This crew was very professional and friendly. Welcomed my family and had the day planned out based off our conversation on the phone. Took us out, put us on a ton of fish! Got our limit of Amber hack in under an hour! Put us on a ton of Spanish mackerel and even took us to a great shark spot. Will book again with this crew!

8 Hour Trip- Live Bait
With Seal's "Kiss From a Rose" blasting over the boat's speakers, Captain Jeremy navigated the waters towards honey holes that yielded 16 fish during our 8hr trip. Amber Jack, Barracuda, King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel and Bonito were all caught. Great experience and 10/10 would do again.
