Excited to go fishing in Bolivia, NC? Look no further than Reel-Bad Intentions Fishing Charter! With Captain Adam at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.

Around here, it's common to catch Flounder, Speckled Trout, Kingfish, Spanish Mackerel, Redfish, Sheepshead, Black Drum, Black Seabass, and more with any luck. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself light tackle fishing, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Adam can also take up to 2 guests Flounder gigging.

Families who love fishing together 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. Don't forget to bring snacks, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

You'll be dropping lines from a 25' Center console with a capacity for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.

No need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group; the captain will provide it. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Great time on the water.
Half Day Trip on July 9, 20262 adults1 child

We were in town for vacation, decided to book a charter. Captain Adam was amazing. We had a great time, we enjoyed being out on the water and seeing a different view of everything as we cruised the waterways. My son had an absolute blast, would definitely recommend this charter. Very knowledgeable and interesting captain, learned a lot, caught some fish, and had a great day on the water with some family! Thanks for everything!

Fantastic Experience!
Half Day Trip on July 15, 20264 adults

Adam provided a fantastic trip for this goup of four! He took time to ensure a successful trip by beginning with a convenient pickup location, helped locate and catch a large variety of fish, had a great boat that was well equipped, and was extremely personable and a joy to be around! We will definitely book again and highly recommended!

Captain Adam was Great
Half Day Trip on June 9, 20262 adults

We caught a couple of blue fish and a skate, but couldn’t seem to land anything else on the boat. We blame the tide because the captain did his best to lead us to more fish. We had a great time nonetheless. Even a so so day fishing is better than a good day at work. We would definitely use him again. Nice boat and even nicer captain.

Response from Captain

Capt. Adam runs trips out of Bolivia, NC, aboard a 25' Robalo center console. These waters are known for Redfish, Kingfish, and Flounder, and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're bottom fishing or trolling. With many years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
