Running angling trips out of Nags Head, Capt BC Sportfishing invites you to check out the local fishery in style.
Capt. Buddy aims to tailor every trip to your specific needs, so let him know what you’re after! Depending on the trip and species, you’ll be using techniques like bottom fishing, trolling, and kite fishing. You’re looking at an 11-hour trip where you’ll usually go after the likes of Marlin, Dolphin, Wahoo, Sailfish, and Tuna, depending on the weather and time of year.
The Capt BC is a Buddy Cannady with an overall length of 60’ and an 18’ beam. The signature BC flare and the 1000 H.P. Cat engine generate a speed of 29 knots. She was built in 1999 by the legendary Buddy Cannady for himself to be run as his personal charter boat out of Oregon Inlet. This would end up being the last boat he built for himself and ran until he retired from the charter industry.
She has since spent her time fishing in the Gulf Stream off of Oregon Inlet and Virginia Beach. The salon is made for comfort and relaxation. It is heated and cooled and has amenities such as a TV, DVD, XM radio, refrigerator, and microwave. She is equipped with state-of-the-art electronics, tournament-quality tackle, and a spacious cockpit and outdoor mezzanine.
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.
There will be a first mate on board to help you with anything you need. Tips for good service are always appreciated.
Want to bring the rest of the family along for the ride? Kids are welcome aboard, so you’re free to make it a family adventure.

I would highly recommend Capt BC Sportfishing! My family had a fantastic day on the water with Captain Buddy and his deck mate West on the Capt BC boat. Both men were professional, knowledgeable, and shared our excitement for the catches made. The boat was spotless and had a comfortable inside cabin. They had all of the equipment needed for our deep sea fishing trip. Once we reached the first location, Captain Buddy immediately had us on a school of Mahi. We maxed out in under an hour! We will be eating fish for months. Then we went on the hunt for sailfish. My husband had a blast catching and reeling in a white marlin. Captain Buddy and West made our first deep sea fishing experience memorable! We can't wait to do it again!

Awesome Day with Captain BC Sportfishing Our group of six had an unforgettable day with Captain BC Sportfishing. We ended up catching 11 tuna, and the action kept us busy the whole trip. The captain knew exactly where to take us, and the mate was incredibly helpful and professional throughout the day. Both were experienced, easy to talk to, and really made the trip fun and smooth for everyone. Can’t recommend them enough great crew, great fishing, and a day we won’t forget. We’ll definitely be back!

Captian Buddy and his Mate Wes did a wonderful job filling our day of fishing. He found us fish to catch and kept our day filled with reeling fish in. We caught our limit of mahi mahi and we did have a huge marlin on. Highly recommend Captain Buddy for a fun filled fishing adventure! We cant wait until next summer.
