There's a fish with your name on it in Emerald Isle, and Reel Pirates Fishing Charters And Adventures will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Will can tell you all about them.
Depending on the season, you might hook into Flounder, Kingfish, Redfish, Spanish Mackerel, Spotted Seatrout, Weakfish, and plenty more. During the trip, you might be spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Trips with Reel Pirates Fishing Charters And Adventures are child-friendly, so feel free to make a family day out of it! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Fish caught during the trip are yours to take home, so long as they're within the legal limit. The crew can even clean your catch for you. Have a cooler ready in the car!
Your day begins aboard a 24' Kencraft Bay Rider with a capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself. Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for a good time!
It's never a bad idea to bring snacks, drinks, sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor and glass bottles. Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

Half Day Trip Inshore(AM)
We had a nice inshore fishing experience with Captain Will. Super hot and humid day with a very tough bite, but Captain Will worked hard to get us on some fish. We will definitely book with Reel Pirates again when in Emerald Isle. Thank you Captain Will!!

Eco -Tour AM
This was our second trip with Captain Will and it was amazing! We have two young kids and he was attentive and flexible. We asked to do a little bit of an eco tour and a little bit of fishing. All of our boxes were checked. Our 5 year old reeled in two trout at once! We can’t wait for our next trip this summer!

We have gone fishing with Captain Will twice now and had great experiences both times. The first time the fish weren’t bad ting but we caught a ton on the latest trip. Both trips were equally enjoyable. He’s very patient with kids and adults too. We are planning more trips in the future!

Captain Will was very accommodating for our 4 fishermen. He took us straight to catch our bait for the day, then to our first stop to wet the hooks. Within 5-10 minutes we had our first fish on. Within an hour we had hit our daily limit.
