If you’re ready to have fun fishing in Oak Island, we’ve got you covered with Quality Time Fishing Charters. Your guide for the day is Captain Billy, bringing aboard years of sportfishing experience.

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Bonito, Black Drum, Great Barracuda, Cobia, Grouper, Black Seabass, Kingfish, Spanish Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Snapper, and anything else that bites. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Capt. Billy welcomes anglers of all ages, including kids, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. It’s recommended to bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and a hat. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Capt. Billy will bring you aboard a 32’ Midnight Express with room for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work. The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain.
