Based out of Sneads Ferry, Atlantic Blue Charters has everything needed for a fun-filled day fishing these waters!

Capt. Drew is obsessed with fishing, and he'll go above and beyond to show you an outstanding experience. You'll be using techniques like bottom fishing, trolling, and spinning, depending on what you're going after. As part of their 4 to 12-hour trips, you can target species like King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Seabass, Grouper, Spanish Mackerel, and Wahoo, depending on the current season and weather conditions.

You'll be fishing from a 34 caymas boat with enough room for up to 6 anglers at any single time. Only boat in the topsail/sneads ferry area with a seakeeper 2!! With the seakeeper and the hual design. It makes for a very very smooth and dry ride. Having the seakeeper will make a rough day feel flat! It also includes a toilet, ice box, and wireless trolling motor. The price of your trip includes all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you'll need for a productive day on the water. As for fishing licenses, everything will be taken care of by the captain, so you don't have to worry about it.

Everything that is in season and of legal size is fine to put in the icebox! Capt. Andrew runs trips together with his first mate, who's there to help you with whatever you may need. Mates work off of tips, 20% customary. Due to high fuel cost a 10% fuel surcharge will be added to offshore and Gulfstream trips. This will be dropped once fuel price drop as well. There will be complimentary drinks aboard for your convenience during the trip, but feel free to bring your own drinks or snacks if you prefer. Non-glass bottle beer is fine, no hard alcohol please! Kids are welcome aboard, so bring them along and come enjoy some family time together.

Join Atlantic Blue Charters for an unforgettable day of fishing!

    Understanding and knowleable Captain

    12 Hour Trip – Gulfstream on June 25, 2026 • 6 adults

    Our fishing day sarted out with 3 fish on, on the first troll. but with two inexperienced customers on board, we had to return to shore because they were very seasick. I do believe the fishing day would have been monumental if we could have stayed. But 4 fish, with probably a combined weight of 200lbs in 1 1/2hrs of actually fishing i won’t complain and will definitely be back and suggest.

    Wow, Great Trip

    3/4 Day Trip – Offshore on May 29, 2026 • 2 adults

    We caught some nice big King Mackerel trolling. Then bottomed fish where the bate hit the bottom and you had a bite. We caught lots of nice hog fish and sea bass. Many other kinds of fish and my wife caught a 4 ' leopard shark....Andrew is a GREAT captain and knows where the fish are and how to catch them..Best fishing ever. .

    Half day trip with Capt Drew

    Half Day Trip nearshore (PM) on August 11, 2023 • 4 adults • 3 children

    Our experience started off with some upcoming bad weather in the forecast but Capt Drew was very informative and helpful in rescheduling a day that would be safer on the water. Upon arrival Capt Drew was on the deck ready for our arrival. During the trip the fish weren't biting much but fish are very unpredictable. Capt Drew new I get seasick easily and tried his best to accommodate that. We trolled mostly to try to avoid anyone's getting sick but since the fish weren't biting much we switched it up and stopped the boat. The kids started catching some smaller fish and having a blast. I would highly recommend Capt Drew as he was very friendly, personable and professional. While fishing he chatted with the kiddos about the fish and fishing experiences he's had ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Best birthday ever

    Half day trip offshore (am) on May 30, 2024 • 3 adults

    We went out for my daughter’s 17th birthday and it was the best birthday ever!!! Drew was fantastic in making sure she caught some big fish. He was great in making sure everything was what we were expecting and he listened to what we said. I would recommend going out with him as you will not be disappointed! We look forward to booking again with Drew.

    Great day on the water & plenty of fish for a few dinners!

    Half Day Trip nearshore (am) on May 25, 2024 • 4 adults

    I’m certain that this fishing trip will be the highlight of our little vacation. The captain was knowledgeable and so friendly. The first mate was so helpful and even provided on board entertainment. We caught King Mackerel and Spanish Mackerel. We will definitely book with them again the next time we are in town.

I grew up fishing in the Topsail area. Fishing has always been my passion ever since I was young. As a child, getting out on the water with my dad was the best of times. For this reason, I always loved the opportunity to take people out to show them why I love fishing these waters and to just enjoy some time with family and friends.
