Captain Big Fish
Captain Big Fish
When you're thinking of the North Carolina coast, one thing comes to mind: extreme fishing. With the Gulf Stream whizzing past, these waters are home to incredible nearshore and offshore fishing opportunities. Take advantage with Captain Big Fish. Operated by Captain Monty Childers, try your hand at a range of fishing. Having fished since he was a little boy, he gets the same thrill watching you reel in anything from a Mackerel to a Mahi.
Step aboard a 37' Grady White center console and get ready to make your dreams come true. Powered by three 300 HP Yamaha offshore engines, you'll reach a speed of up to 35 knots, getting you on the fish faster than the rest. She also comes equipped with Garmin navigational equipment. You'll have a private bathroom on board, an essential on longer trips, especially as you make use of the free water on board.
You'll take advantage of the live bait well on board, with bait prepared before your trip, and outriggers will also help you troll. On the reefs, try jigging and bottom fishing, while further out, wait for the reels to start screeching and jump to the rods to start reeling in a big one. Expect to go after Snappers, Groupers, Mackerels, and Cobia when hitting the nearshore. While offshore, you could catch anything from a spectacular Sailfish to a delicious Mahi Mahi.
Head up to 65 miles offshore to be at one with the marine life around you. The biggest fish live here and you'll be amazed as you gaze upon these monsters. With snacks provided on board, you're in for a treat throughout with Captain Big Fish. Let the captain know if you want to go scuba diving, and then all you need to do is bring your license, some sunscreen and towels. Settle in for a fun-filled fishing experience and book now.

We had an amazing time on this charter! The fishing was incredible—we caught at least 20–25 Spanish mackerel, and there was almost always a rod bent. Monty kept us on the fish all morning and made the trip fun, entertaining, and enjoyable for everyone on board. Alex was outstanding—friendly, hardworking, and always there to help with baiting hooks, landing fish, and making sure everyone had a great experience. If you’re looking for a charter with an experienced crew, lots of action, and a fun atmosphere, this is the one to book. We made great memories and can’t wait to come back for another trip. Highly recommend!
Our half day trip with Captain Monty was one for the books. We left the dock early in the morning and caught a beautiful sunrise on the water. Within the first hour we had hooked up on a handful of fish. We ended the day with a dozen fish and lots of good memories. Captain Monty and his mate were very professional and great people to get to know throughout the day. They took great care of us throughout the trip. I highly recommend him for anyone looking to book a charter in the area!
Thanks Guys for the awesome review…we try really hard to catch fish…but most of all we want yall to have fun!! Thanks Captain Monty
We didn’t have great weather but we still had a great experience. We caught a couple fish. Captain Monty tried his hardest to get us on the fish but they weren’t biting for us or anyone around us. First mate Alex busted his butt to change out lures and tactics. Great personalities. 100% recommend best captain in Wilmington
