There’s a fish with your name on it in Wanchese and Outer Banks Outdoors will help you catch it! Captain Matt has been guiding duck hunters and fishing the waters of the Outer Banks for the last 25 years from the back bays of the Currituck Sound to the Gulf Stream.
His love for hunting, fishing, surfing, and the outdoors brought him to the Outer Banks of North Carolina for a summer and he never left! He found his home in a truly year-round sportsman paradise! He lives on the Outer Banks with his wife and son and looks forward to spending the day on the water with you!
Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Black Drum, Flounder, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, Redfish, and anything else that bites. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light tackle.
You’ll be casting lines from a 25’ Parker walkaround with space for up to 6 passengers. The East Way is perfect for shallow water fishing on the Outer Banks. She has state-of-the-art Garmin electronics with radar and side-view sonar. The 300hp Suzuki outboard is mounted on a porta bracket for the shallow water Trout and Drum fishing our sounds are known for.
All the essentials needed are provided by the boat. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, along with lures and your fishing license for the day! It’s recommended to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), drinks, and food. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid glass bottles.
Now, time to hit the water with Outer Banks Outdoors!

2.5 Hour Family Adventure (Noon)
Captain Matt was wonderful and extremely knowledgeable. His guidance with our children made for a wonderful experience for everyone. The 2 and half hour trip was the perfect amount of time for the kiddos to enjoy themselves and not get bored. Captain Matt was able to put us on some drum, allowing our 9 year old the experience of reeling two of them in. Highly recommend anyone with children looking to experience a fishing charter to book with Captain Matt.

6 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM)
The ocean was rough on our trip. But we fished the inlet and the sound. Capt. Ches recommended that we fished the sounds. Safety was priority. We still caught fish. Capt Ches went above and beyond our expectations of fishing for several types (at least 5) of fish, since we couldn't go out to sea..the waves made my wife sick. 4 foot swells was really rough. Considering the conditions, we still caught fish! We will definitely call on him again to take us out. V/R, The Flippins
