In Debt Charters is located in Nags Head and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Capt. Christopher will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 4 to 8-hour trips, mainly fishing for Redfish, Seabass, Tilefish, Speckled Trout, and Trigger Fish, depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, drift fishing, jigging, and spinning. There is also the opportunity to go offshore for Mahi, Dolphin, Tilefish, and Billfish. It starts early because we have to run 20-30 miles to get you there, please see the offshore trip price.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 23' Bulls Bay boat that can safely take up to 4 anglers. The offshore trips can be run out of the Bulls Bay, but the conditions have to be right, we also offer a 30' topaz for this trip which will make it for a better opportunity to fish.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Your trip will include all the necessary fishing licenses for the day.

Perfect fishing trip with our kids
2hr 23' Bullsbay 2hr 5-7 pm trip on July 31, 20263 adults1 child

This trip really exceeded our expectations. Chris was so great with our kids and finding an area for them to stay busy catching lots of fish. You can’t beat the personal attention that our kids got for fishing instruction and how to use the equipment. Chris was extremely personable and pleasant and it was all around a fabulous trip. Also the westher and the spot were beautiful. So glad we did this!!!! Thank you!

Chris is the man!!!
3hr trip available morning on August 25, 20262 adults

My wife and I had a great morning either Chris. We handcuffed him a bit because one of us is prone to seasickness but he was understand and accommodating. We managed to land a few fish and missed a couple of big ones, not Chris’ fault. Will definitely book again. Don’t bring bananas on board!

First time family fishing
2hr 23' Bullsbay 2hr 5-7 pm trip on July 29, 20262 adults2 children

We have never fished before in our lives. We showed up at the dock and were greeted by our guide. He was very kind and patient. He explained how to cast and he put the bait on our hooks. We were all able to catch, and by our choice, release a bunch of fish. The fact that the kids want to come back next year says it all. I highy recommend it!

Wonderful experience!
2hr 23' Bullsbay 2hr 5-7 pm trip on June 10, 20262 adults2 children

We had so much fun on our fishing trip. Chris was amazing with our boys! It got super windy, so we didn't think we'd have much luck, but tucked into the sound out of the worst of the wind. We ended up catching pin fish, croakers, grunts, trout, and even a flounder. Great way to end our vacation. 10/10 recommend In Debt Charters!

Captain Chris is the real deal. His knowledge of the water, sights, sounds, wind, weather, and where the best fishing would be was exceptional. extraordinary trip.
