You'll have lots of fun exploring the inshore waters of Wanchese, North Carolina and chasing many different species that dwell in the area. Your Captain will give you all the help needed for making a good catch and see that you have the best possible time on the water. Join him and have a memorable fishing trip in Wanchese!

The boat you'll use is a 20' Maycraft center console with plenty of space for up to 4 guests.

Some of the many species that you can chase on your trip are Flounder, Redfish, Sheepshead, Cobia, Striped Bass, and Speckled Trout.

Awesome trip!
2hr. Fishing trip 4pl.(max) on July 10, 20262 adults

We had a great time with Captain Mike. We caught our bait and moved to catch a big trout, a skater, and a crab. Many bites and he was fun to talk to and knowledgeable. Will go back to him next time we are here.

Great capt, great day of fishing
Half Day Trip (AM)4(pl) max. on September 29, 20253 adults

we booked our trip shortly before a storm was on its way in, capt mike called me and gave me the option to cancel my charter because they didnt have much luck the day before, and the weather was making conditions worse. we decided to still go out, we limited out on trout, mike knew where to take us to have a good chance on a bad day and we struck gold. Awesome dude, get out there and fish with Mike!!

Reported catch:
Speckled Trout
