I was born a fisherman. Born and raised in South Eastern NC. My backyard was always water. I Bass fished golf course ponds as a youngster, and fished inshore, nearshore, and offshore with my dad and grandfather. Fishing is in my blood. The outdoors is my office. I love sharing all I have learned throughout my life with all of the folks that come to visit South Eastern NC. I am an adventure charter. Although fishing is a big part of my charter, we also have a lot of customers who enjoy the tidal pool excursions with their kids. Clamming and crabbing the back creeks around Wrightsville Beach, or shell walks along our uninhabited barrier islands that we are blessed to have. As a North Carolinian, a husband of 17 years, and a father of 3 boys, I promise to take the utmost care of you and your family and treat you all as an extended part of mine! Hope to see you soon.
