2 Hour Sound Charter
1/4 Day Trip (PM) on June 28, 2024
Considering our charter was only 2 hours, Captain Drew made our experience very worthwhile. Captain Drew was very knowledgeable and wasted no time in getting us on some fish. We caught multiple speckled trout which were later filleted by Captain Drew. Aside from skill, Drew was a very personable Captain and truly a funny guy. I highly suggest this charter to anyone as it was the highlight of our OBX experience.

Captain Drew was a hoot!
Evening trip on September 12, 2024
Captain Drew was a hoot! He is incredibly personable and made our experience enjoyable during times we were reeling in the fish and otherwise. He’s very knowledgeable about the area and everything related to fishing. His experience speaks volumes.

I am a native of Dare County and have been fishing since I was a young boy in Manns Harbor. I fished primarily in the Croatan Sound in small skiffs when I was a little boy and had my first paying job in the commercial fishing industry at age 15. My commercial work in the sounds of Dare County includes crabbing, shrimping, and gill net fishing. Offshore, I have worked on commercial longline boats catching primarily tuna and swordfish. Being on the waters of the of dare county is where I am most comfortable and very happy, especially with a fishing pole in my hand. I have a great respect for nature and the coastal environment where I work and spend time with my family and have spent my whole entire life.
