    Full Day Trip on June 3, 2025 • 3 adults

    We had a great experience with Chasin Tyde Charters in OBX! My dad, brother, and I went out with them and had a perfect day on the water. From the moment we stepped on the boat, the crew made us feel welcome and at ease. They were knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. We caught a ton of fish (drum, bluefish, triggerfish, flounder, and seabass) to the point that our arms hurt at the end of the day. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable for the whole trip. Whether you're an experienced angler or just looking for a fun day on the water, Chasin Tyde is the way to go. Highly recommend!

    Great Day Inshore in OBX

    3/4 Day Trip on October 5, 2024 • 3 adults

    I recently had the pleasure of fishing with **Chasin Tyde Charters** out of Manteo, NC, and it was an experience to remember! Captain Tom Dileo and first mate Tom were exceptional in every way. They knew exactly where to take us, and within no time, we were right on top of the speckled trout and redfish bite. Their knowledge of the backwater sand bars and grass flats was impressive, and their expertise ensured we had a productive and action-packed day on the water. The 26-foot boat, while equipped with basic amenities, was spacious and a perfect fishing machine. There was more than enough room for our group of three, even though we’re all big guys! The Meat Hog Rods and Diana reels provided were top-notch and in excellent condition, making for a smooth and enjoyable fishing experience. If you're looking for a great fishing charter in the Manteo area, **Chasin Tyde Charters** should be your top choice. Captain Tom and first mate Tom know their waters and go above and beyond to deliver an outstanding fishing adventure!

    Amazing!!

    Full Day Trip on July 25, 2025 • 2 adults

    We had an absolutely amazing day fishing with Tom and his dad! It started very slow but they kept working really hard to get us on fish and it payed off big!! Limited out on Mahi and caught a few Cobia!! I have been on many fishing charters and have never had a crew work as hard as they did. Highly recommend! Will definitely be fishing with them again!

    3/4 Day Trip with Chasin’ Tyde Charter

    3/4 Day Trip on May 15, 2023 • 3 adults

    My dad, my brother, and I went out on this 3/4 day trip and had a great time! We caught about 20 fish, including speckled trout, blues, a Spanish mackerel, and a flounder. We only kept enough for a delicious dinner due to size restrictions, but it wasn’t for lack of trying! Tom and Tom were extremely knowledgeable and took us to numerous locations around the sound, staying out even past our allotted time to try and get us a few more fish. Communication was excellent before and during the trip, and we spent a lot of time fishing with beautiful views of the sound and Bodie Island Lighthouse. We’re already looking forward to booking another trip next year!

    ChasinTyde Charters

    3/4 Day Trip on July 27, 2024 • 4 adults

    Fishing was slow for us when we went. Poor weather conditions and unusual wind pattern made the fishing hard. ChasinTyde were persistent on getting us fish. We tried several spots and methods. They got us on to fish, and even stayed out with us another hour since the fish took so long to cooperate. I would recommend ChasinTyde Charters to anyone, and I will be rebooking them in the future!

Just had an amazing time. The boat is one of the best that we have been on. The captain was awesome. He put us on the fish from the very start despite some challenging weather conditions. The crew were patient and knowledgeable and we caught so many fish!! I really enjoy fishing with these guys and this was our second trip with them. We will be back next year. Thanks again for just a great trip.

USCG certified OUPV Captain. My love for fishing started when I was old enough to hold a fishing rod. Growing up fishing lakes, rivers, creeks, piers, and surf with my Grandfather and Father. Once introduced to the ocean at a young age I was 'hooked.' I want to share my passion, knowledge, and love for fishing with as many people as I can. As a father of two boys, I am blessed to spend my time on the water sharing my passion for fishing with them, as well as our guests on the ChasinTyde.
