Second Sport Charters
Second Sport Charters invites you on a memorable fishing day on the prolific waters of Carolina Beach! Let Captain Daniel Harris show you the way to the best offshore bite in the area and come home with a brag-worthy catch.
You will be fishing out of 'Barbarino' – the captain's 37' Topaz sportfisher with twin 375 HP Caterpillar engines. The deck is spacious enough to easily accommodate up to 6 anglers and have them fishing at the same time.
Quality Shimano and Penn equipment will wait for you on the boat, as well as bait and a fighting chair, for when you hook a big one. Outriggers will help to extend your fishing reach, and there's a cooler on board to keep your catch fresh.
The boat sports an air-conditioned cabin with plenty of seating, a kitchen, and a private toilet. This means you'll travel and fish in full comfort. Barbarino is a lean fishing machine, perfectly suited for offshore fishing.
Capt. Daniel offers a wide array of trips targeting different species, so there's something for everyone. You'll mostly chase Spanish and King Mackerel and Bluefish on half day trips. Snappers, Amberjack, and the occasional Grouper are popular on 3/4 day and full day trips.
If you'd like to join the big leagues, book the offshore trip for favorites like Mahi Mahi, Triggerfish, Black Seabass, Sharks, and more. After the trip, the captain and the first mate can clean and fillet the catch for an additional charge.
Children of all ages are welcome on the expeditions with Capt. Daniel, he will provide the life vests for everyone. All you need to bring is food and drinks for the group, and leave everything else in your guide's capable hands.
Join Second Sport Charters for a day of fishing fun and games! Who knows, maybe your next trophy awaits in the offshore waters of Carolina Beach!

Christian Mathews5.0VerifiedAwesome trip
Half Day Trip (PM) on May 20, 2026 • 6 adultsCaptain and first mate where awesome. Caught 24 fish. Enough fish for 13 person dinner!! Great group of guys. Highly recommend to anyone.
Joseph Pacek5.0VerifiedGreat 6hr trip off Carolina Beach!
3/4 Day Trip on May 3, 2025 • 4 adultsI enjoyed a fantastic six-hour trip out of Carolina Beach in May! The boat was in excellent condition, and Captain Dan and First Mate Ken were exceptional. This trip was a special birthday celebration for my 70-year-old father, who has limited mobility. The crew went above and beyond to accommodate his needs, as well as ours. We caught plenty of Spanish mackerel, and Ken kindly took the time to fillet the fish so they were ready to cook right off the dock. I highly recommend this charter if you're looking for a great experience in Carolina Beach!
Tara Sevilla5.0VerifiedGreat Experience!
Half Day Trip (PM) on July 7, 2024 • 6 adultsNow, let me preface this by saying this wasn’t what we expected BUT that was at no fault to the crew. We’d just never fished like that before, some (me) had never fished on a boat. That being said, the captain told me the day before that they caught 24 fish on Thursday, but hadn’t seen any the 24 hours since allowing me the opportunity to cancel and be refunded if I wanted to. It was for my boyfriend’s birthday, we were already there, and we weren’t going to cancel. The first hour there weren’t any fish and it was looking grim, but subsequently, we caught 9 fish :) Cameron was super helpful and friendly, he gutted and filleted our fish as well, and the Captain was great also. Highly recommend them!
Elizabeth Anderson5.0Verifiedfun day fishing
Half Day Trip (AM) on October 23, 2025 • 3 adultsWe had an absolute blast out fishing with these guys! We may not have caught the biggest fish, but we caught a lot and they filleted everything perfectly. We would recommend them to everyone.
Shelley Lappert5.0VerifiedBest fishing trip yet! Highly recommend this charter!
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 7, 2024 • 4 adultsWe charter a lot when we visit CB but this was by far our best trip out! We had well over ten pounds of fish once it was filleted (Cam did an awesome job! It was a fun bonus feeding the pelicans the scraps!) we were celebrating our husbands birthdays and it was a fantastic day! Great stories and great company made for a fantastic day!

Andrew Dozier5.0VerifiedHalf day bachelor trip!
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 7, 2022 • 5 adultsCaptain Daniel and his first mate, Cam, were great. They got us from dock, straight into some fish and back to the dock in one piece. The first mate helped us as much or as little as we needed. Planning on booking again soon!

An adventure for sure!
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 18, 2022 • 5 adults • 3 childrenDue to weather conditions, we only caught a few small fish. But the experience was still great! The crew was very nice and made us comfortable instantly. Cameron worked hard to give us the best experience possible. The whole family had a great time!
