Kentucky, USMember since 20265.0VerifiedFun for all ages…..
Family Fun Charter on June 12, 2026 • 5 adults • 3 childrenI booked this 2 hour fishing trip for my son and family. Captain Sam Bell contacted me right away to go over the trip details. Captain Sam is a great teacher, guide, and has great communication skills. The boat ride was very calm and enjoyable. My son enjoyed fishing off the boat. He also liked the stop at island. We caught 2 fish and 2 hermit crabs. I would definitely recommend Captain Sam and this trip if you are just wanting to try out fishing in the sea.
Tom Walker•Ohio, USMember since 20265.0VerifiedFish in the boat!
Half Day Fishing (AM) on June 22, 2026 • 6 adultsCaptain Sam was great! He put us on bluefish right away and caught a couple dozen in about an hour. We then motored around the sound looking for Red Drum but no luck. That’s fishing! We did see a sea turtle which was pretty cool. We had a great morning trip overall. I would highly recommend Captain Sam for anyone looking to do a fishing trip out of Avon, NC.

Mallory Hall•Ohio, USMember since 20255.0VerifiedCaptain Sam was aewsome!
Half Day Fishing (AM) on April 2, 2025 • 5 adults • 1 childWe had a great half day trip! Sam was amazing with communication before hand with any questions we had. He was flexible with our start time and had us on the fish almost immediately! Everyone caught multiple blues! Too many to eat so we tossed a lot back. Sam filleted the fish after our trip so we can try them for dinner! All in all, and great experience for myself, my husband and our kids!

Half Day Fishing (AM) on July 30, 2025 • 5 adults • 3 childrenI booked a fishing charter with Captain Sam for my 14 year old son Sam who’s been dying to catch fish on our vacations. The family tagged along (12 & 10 yr old sisters, Mom & Dad) and everyone had a great experience! Captain Sam was awesome, he knew where to go, what to do and got us on fish right away. I highly recommend booking with Tightlinz Charter!
Marr BoardRepeat angler•North Carolina, US•Member since 20232 trips5.0VerifiedNice 1/2 Day
Half Day Fishing (AM) on June 2, 2025 • 5 adultsWhile we hit a slow day, we still caught a few to bring home for a mess. Totally not Sam’s fault, the fish just weren’t cooperating. Was a fun day just the same. Sam was very personable, has clean boat with easy access. Would recommend.
