OBX Fishing Outfitters
Come aboard OBX Fishing Outfitters and make the most of the Outer Banks’ rich inshore sounds. These Sound waters are full of delicious fish and crustaceans. Fill the boat with fresh Shrimp, Crab, and fish in what promises to be an authentic local experience! Soundside fishing as well!
Captain Jamie Parker was born and raised on the OBX, he spends more time on the water than on land. He’s a commercial fisherman during winter and runs this charter during the summer season. He hopes to share his lifetime of fishing knowledge with you, helping you have a successful day on the water and making sure the kids rake in plenty of delicious treats.
His 34’ custom-made Deadrise downeast boat is fitted for all intents and purposes. Up to 6 guests are welcome aboard the spacious deck to try their hand at filling the boat. You’ll have the chance to try out trawling for Shrimp and pulling the Crab pots too. Bring your own drinks and snacks aboard and settle in for a thrilling day out.
There’s fun for the whole family aboard with Capt. Jamie. Bring the kids along and get them engaged in a healthy and educational activity.
At the end of the day, once you get back on land, you can visit a seafood market nearby that can steam your Crabs! There’s nothing left for you to do but come aboard and settle in for a real North Carolinian water adventure. Let OBX Fishing Outfitters show you why the Outer Banks are world-renowned for outdoor fun!

2 Hour – Crabbing/Shrimping (PM)
Perfect Trip
Our second OBX excursion for our fishing group of 6 was crabbing and shrimping with captain Jamie Parker and first mate Fischer. A first for us. Was an awesome all-hands on deck experience. The water was a little rough but we learned so much about the area and the crabbing and shrimping industry. We caught enough to feed our house of 11. May have been pinched a few times but the temporary pain was weakness leaving the body. We took our blue crabs and shrimp to Outland Seafood (recommended by Jamie) for seasoning and steaming in prep for our evening seafood boil. Perfect trip.

3 HR SHRIMP/CRAB (MID DAY)
Exceptional Charter Experience
My family and I took a three hour shrimp and crab charter and have nothing but amazing things to share. Jamie and his son Fisher were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and enjoyable to be with. They have a pristine boat equip with a cooler available for guests to bring refreshments. Jamie walked us step by step through the crabbing and shrimping process and with left with enough food to feed a small army. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for an amazing experience!

3 hr AM FISHING
An Authentic Outer Banks Experience
We had a blast on board with Jamie and his son, Fisher. There was myself, husband and three kids (19, 19, 16). They got our poles in the water and easily maneuvered the waterways to find more fish. We only caught one Speckled trout, however, they gave us what they had in their crab pots. So much crab! And then Jamie gave us some shrimp they had caught the previous day so we definitely didn't go home empty handed. Thanks for a great time!

Amazing Day!
I booked this trip for 6 adults- my siblings and dad to celebrate my sister's 50th birthday. The excursion with Captain Jamie was a truly great experience. He was so accommodating, informative and fun. The boat was clean and had more than enough space for all of us. We learned so much about the area and caught a load of crabs for dinner! This trip exceeded our expectations...highly recommend!!

Capt. Jamie and son were great. He helped us to change our adventure from fishing to crabbing and shrimping due to the impending weather, and conditions not being great for fishing. We caught 59 pounds of shrimp and four blue crabs, and learned a lot. Everyone enjoyed it!
