Best Captain Ever!!!

2 hour Kids Trip on April 1, 2026 • 2 adults • 2 children

Captain John was awesome. My boys had an absolute blast on the charter and that’s really what it’s all about. Each of them got to feel the rush of pulling in the biggest fish they’ve ever caught, which made it even more memorable.

He was great with the kids, kept things fun, and made sure they were always engaged and having a good time. You can tell he knows what he’s doing and genuinely enjoys it.

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’ll definitely be calling him again next time we’re back in Ocean Isle.

Great Trip with Captain John

Half Day Trip on May 24, 2026 • 4 adults

Captain John was great on this trip.  We were expecting rain and rough weather but He kept us away feom the rain and rough waterways.  He was very patient with baiting hooks and helping us to get some fish in ghe boat.  we hooked up with some nice founder but not able to keep them.  we will definitely go out with Captain John next time we have the opportunity!.
