Calabash Fishing Fleet has hit upon a winning combination — awesome charters and experienced guides who know the waters of North Carolina like the back of their hand. Based in historical Calabash, which is often referred to as one of the 'Sea Food Capitals' of the country, they're just waiting to take you on an adventure you'll remember for a long time!

You'll be spending your trip aboard his 'Navigator,' an impressive 65'foot DMR arrow yacht that has a walkaround that can comfortably accommodate up to 40 anglers.

She's decked out with top-of-the-line navigational equipment, so you'll be on the fish in no time. She also has a fully enclosed toilet, which means you'll be traveling in comfort and style.

And where will you be going off to? Depending on the trip you choose, you'll either be fishing for anything from Black Seabass to King Mackerel and Grey Snapper nearshore, or heading up to 30 miles offshore to battle pelagic VIPs like Mahi Mahi or Wahoo.

Fancy a combination of the two? Then go for the 3\4 day trip, which offers both nearshore and offshore fishing — you can fill your freezer and enjoy the fight of reeling in big game fish at the same time.

Whether you're an experienced angler or are just discovering your sea legs, Capt. Robert welcomes you aboard. Want to make your fishing trips a family outing to remember? Children of all ages are welcome, with lifejackets provided in all sizes to ensure the safety of every guest.

Your guides will provide you with top-quality Penn rods and reels. You'll be catching live bait on your trip, so you know it'll be fresh and tasty for whatever species you want to reel in.

All that's left is for you to book with Calabash Fishing Fleet and let 'Navigator' sail you towards an adventure you

June fishing trip
4 Hour Trip - Nearshore (PM) on June 19, 20254 adults5 children
We had an unforgettable experience with the Calabasas Fishing Fleet! From the moment we stepped on board, the crew was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and genuinely focused on making sure everyone had a great time. They made sure we were always in the action and catching fish—even the kids got to reel in some sharks, which was an absolute highlight! The staff went above and beyond to make it fun, safe, and memorable for all ages. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an exciting ocean fishing adventure!

Great Charter For Bottom Fishing
4 Hour Trip - Nearshore (AM) on May 14, 20256 adults1 child
My family signed up for their “up to 40 person” four hour charter trip. There were 12 fishing, including our group of seven” on the boat that day. They trolled 4 poles for about 45 minutes and we bottom fished the rest of the time. Fun family memory, great boat, and great crew. Maybe they offer other charter experiences for am more targeted game fish day, but the larger boat with up to 40 people is primarily a bottom fishing experience. Wish that had been more clearly stated in the web listing. Overall, nice experience though.

You can't get any fresher fish then catching it yourself! And having the mates fileted it is even better. Well worth the money. Go and get fishing. They will teach you if you don't know how. It's great. Very relaxing...love the whole crew Rose
