Full day with Captain Joe
Full Day Trip on April 3, 20212 adults

We did a full day with Captain Joe and his son DJ. The forecast called for decently clear waters, but that certainly changed. We all made the best of the trip, and it seems like every boat wasn't having much luck that day, which I feel is expected the first weekend in April. We still had fun and I think they did a great job navigating and putting us on the fish that they did. We are certainly looking forward to eating what we caught and appreciate them cutting the fish for us!

Reported catch:
Black Seabass

6 hour trip with Captain Joe
3/4 Day Trip on August 14, 20212 adults1 child

Was a great trip, didn't waste time getting to the fishing spot. Joe knew right where to find the fish. Had one in the boat in less then 15 minutes. Was great at sharing his knowledge. I didn't think there was so much difference between fresh and saltwater fishing. I learned alot in the short trip. Will definitely make a return trip. Highly recommend Joe for your next trip.

3/4 day (8hr) trip w/ Captain Joe
Full Day Trip on July 28, 20194 adults

We had a great experience with captain Joe! This was us fours first time deep sea fishing and it was my 23rd birthday, one I’ll never forget! We caught 11 Spanish Mackerel for the day, the beginning was slow but onto plan b he went. Not to mention the beautiful ocean sunrise we got to see along with tons of jelly fish and a 7-8 foot shark! At the end we even got to tie off to someone else’s boat and go for a swim. Overall recommend captain Joe he even cleaned our fish! It was a lifetime experience we’ll all remember.

Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

Captain Joe Jenkins began fishing the coast of NC in the 1980s, mainly out of Topsail Beach, NC. Growing up catching Flounder, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, and other inshore and nearshore species. This led to venturing offshore and quickly getting hooked on King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Grouper, Snapper, and billfishing! After an 8 year detour in the US Coast Guard, Capt. Joe has been fishing in the waters around Charleston, SC and Wilmington, NC ever since!
