Carolina Beach has a fish with your name on it, so let Tide On Inshore Charters help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Davison can tell you all about the local fishery.

Fishing around here will often see you targeting Redfish, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Sheepshead, Striped Bass, and more, depending on the season. On these trips, it's common to bottom fish using light tackle. You can keep any fish you catch, assuming regulations allow it. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Talk about bang for your buck!

Your boat for the day is a 19' Tidewater bay boat that holds up to 3 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but be sure to ask about it beforehand so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, which means all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach! It's always wise to bring sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask.

Your trip with Tide On Inshore Charters is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

Great captain
3 hour trip (copy) on April 4, 20261 adult1 child

Davidson’s a great captain. My son and I went fishing and while the fish were a little early in the season, we made the best of it. He was very accommodating for young children.

Captain had the boat in the water and the live well full of bait 10 min early…prepared! Boat is comfortable and ran like a sewing machine. Captain is knowledgeable and patient and willing to teach anything you are willing to learn. Great day will be doing that again very soon!
