Kahuna Fishing Charters
Kahuna Fishing Charters
We specialize in big-game offshore fishing! All twelve months of the year, it's all we do other than days when the weather keeps us at the dock. Deep winter is the best time to catch a Giant Bluefin Tuna, and that's what we do best.
Depending on the season, you might hook into White Marlin, Blacktip Shark, Bigeye Tuna, Bluefin Tuna, Skipjack Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, and whatever else is biting. You'll target your catch by spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Reed can also have you kite fishing.
Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!
You'll step aboard a 60' Offshore sport fishing with room for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work. Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain. Please note there is an additional 6% sales tax.
It's recommended to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

mate was awesome and super knowledgeable and informational, captain was great put us on the fish which kept the whole day exciting, caught my first sailfish with them and will definitely be booking with them for my future trips!
Due to no fault of the captain or first mate, it just wasn't in the cards for us to catch tuna when we went. There were only a few charters that ended up scoring one. However the captain and first mate made sure we at least finished with fish in our cooler. After trying all day and striking out, we moved on to catch more than enough tile fish to eat for months! We appreciated his persistence and effort to try and get us a Tuna. Next time, we hope. Thanks to Reed and Justin.
The captain and mate were knowledgeable and helpful. This was the first time I have caught yellowfin tuna. Compared to other saltwater trips I have made this was the best boat and crew I have been with. All 5 people in our group caught tuna and we will use them when we go again. If you want to catch tuna take this boat.
we limited out on fish, a Large grouper that we let go and one tuna

Your captain
Nags Head, North Carolina, United States
I'm a 3rd generation fishing captain and owner-operator. I have been running trips out of Oregon Inlet, North Carolina, since 1993 and have fished all over commercial and charter. My crew and I take pride in our strong network of boats in the Oregon Inlet fleet, and we all work hard to stay on top of the best fishing option for the conditions. My crew and I have been featured on two seasons of the National Geographic channel's 'Wicked Tuna Outer Banks' hit series, where we finished 3rd place overall for the season against some tough competition like the 'Hot Tuna' and other cast members! We just wrapped filming of Wicked Tuna Outer Banks, season 6, aboard the Kahuna! We had an excellent Bluefin season, and I can't wait for everyone to watch! I can't reveal any details about the season yet!
