Make the most of your time on Bald Head Island and go fishing with Wilmington Fishing Expeditions. Your guide for the day is Captain Jeffrey, which allows you to benefit from years of experience.

These waters are known for Redfish, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Sharks, Sheepshead, Tarpon, and more – with any luck, you’ll find out for yourself! Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep.

Capt. Jeffrey will bring you aboard a 17’ Maverick Flats boat that holds up to 2 passengers. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat. Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain.

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. It’s recommended to bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and a hat. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, come aboard with ILM Fishing and get hooked!

3/4 Day Trip

can't recommend enough

VERIFIED

Just wrapped up two days of fishing with Jeff and cannot say enough about how truly exceptional a guide this dude is. He set us up with shots at fish from bell to bell both days. Sealed the deal on a handful of quality reds with his guidance. He is both fishy and personable as hell (these two are often mutually exclusive). Runs a top notch skiff that he poles with a deftness that only comes with a whole lot of time on the platform. Dude has a fire in him for what he does and it so clearly shows. Can't wait to fish him again.

Fantastic fishing experience with Capt. Jeff

My nephew and I had an amazing day with Capt. Jeff. We met him at 6:30 am and returned to Bald Head Marina at around 11 am. We caught one blue fish and at least 8 speckled sea trout. Jeff’s boat is very comfortable. He knows the waters around Bald Head very well. Jeff is very nice and personable. We had a great experience and will likely repeat it next summer. I highly recommend him.
