“Best Day Ever”
4 Hour Trip – Trolling (AM) on July 3, 20263 adults2 children

We had an amazing time on Wet N Wild fishing charter! From the moment we left the dock, Captain Dylan and Tyler were friendly, knowledgeable, and worked hard to make sure everyone had a great experience. My friend and I took our kids out, who ranged in ages 16, 8, and 7. The 1st Mate Tyler was amazing with the kids and Captain Dylan knew exactly where to find the fish! We ended the trip with an great amount of catchs and memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re looking for a fun, successful day on the water with a professional crew, this is the charter to book. We can’t wait to come back for another trip—highly recommend! The kids said “Best Day Ever”

Awesome Trip
8 Hour Trip – Trolling on April 22, 20264 adults

We took a 8 hour trip. The boat was fantastic with a cabin that would challenge your living room for amenities. The boat had the muscle to get you to the fish quickly. As soon as the baits were in the water, we were hooked up and the action was continuous.We caught King Mackerel, Bonito, Amberjack, Houndfish, and Wahoo. In all, I counted a total of 29 fish. The Wahoo was 61” long and weighed 56.8 lbs. Captain Dylan and First Mate Tyler handled the boat and landing of the fish perfectly. This was the best day of fishing I have ever had.

8 Hour Trip – Trolling on July 17, 20264 adults

Dylan and Tyler were great. The trip was seamless and very successful. The two paired well to give us a great trip. Dylan putting us on the fish and Tyler was a master at getting the lines in the water and on time to make the catches possible. Can’t thank them enough for the wonderful day they gave my family.

Captain was very knowledgeable and friendly. Kept us out of storms and on the fish. First mate was great, helped us above and beyond. We caught barracuda, King mackerel, and bonita. 2 fish were mount worthy. Will definitely be fishing with Wet and Wild again!

Great Crew
4 Hour Trip – Trolling (AM) on June 14, 20263 adults

We had a group of six who went out for a 4-hour trip. We were able to catch fish when all of the other boats in the area were struggling. This, despite that Captain Dillon mentioned we were trolling through schools of fish, they just weren't biting. We managed to have a great time, land some fish, and enjoy a great day on the water. Thank you to Captain and Tyler for a great experience.

I'm a native Floridian, Army Veteran and lifetime fisherman. My Dad took me fishing with him when I was barely big enough to cast & reel! We shared a passion for fishing and I was able to do the same with my 2 sons. Now as a charter Captain, I get to share it with people of all ages and backgrounds from all over the world! In April 2002, I started Big Game Charters, LLP. in NC. Our goal is provide 110% customer service on every charter. I am very competitive and want to catch the most, and the biggest to fill the cooler.
