Absolut Fishing Charters
Absolut Fishing Charters is located in Manteo, North Carolina and offers to take you on a trip full of fun and excitement. Captain Jed is an Outer Banks native and a seasoned professional mariner. Join him aboard the Absolut for some backcountry fishing. He will use all his experience and skills to make your day the best possible!
Your adventure starts on a 22’ Swan Point center console that can safely take up to 4 anglers. The boat runs on a 200 HP Suzuki engine and uses GPS and fishfinder navigation electronics. It also comes with a wireless trolling motor and livewell to give you the edge over all the fish you'll be targeting.
We will be targeting Speckled Trout, Bluefish, Flounder, Redfish, and Cobia, depending on the season and conditions.
The captain provides all other rods, reels, and tackle, as well as live bait and lures. He'll even supply you with drinks and cover everyone on board for fishing licenses. Don't forget a cooler to take your catch home.
This is a great family adventure!
Book today and have an incredible fishing experience with Absolut Fishing Charters!

BIG FISH
Captain Spencer is the man!! I was on a mission for my first red drum and within ten minutes of line in the water, we were hooked up with a “citation” fish!!! Didn’t know what that meant until it got close. Another awesome thing which might or might not have been his plan all along was we never caught the same species which was so cool to catch so many different species and the fights they put up. I will be back for sure!!!!

We enjoyed the fight of these big drum and a couple Blue fish along with great conversation and some great food recommendations. Highly recommend for great fishing, great convo and just an amazing experience! 5 stars!
