If you're ready to start fishing in the Outer Banks, we've got you covered with South Bound OBX Outfitters. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Christopher knows them forwards and back.

There's no guarantee when you're fishing, but just some of the species you can catch around here include Speckled Trout, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, Flounder, Weakfish, Largemouth Bass, White Perch, Yellow Perch, Bull Shark, Sheepshead, Striped Bass, Bluefish, and more if conditions are right. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Capt. Christopher is happy to have kids aboard, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Your trip begins aboard a 20' KenCraft center console that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

You can't go wrong when you bring sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be some bottled water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Our boat is trailered, this allows different options depending on weather and where the fish are biting. Locations are Manteo, Manns Harbor and Stumpy Point.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with South Bound OBX Outfitters!

First but NOT last fishing trip!
2 Hour Quick Fix - 1:00 PM on June 30, 20264 adults

Our family of four, including two teenagers, had an outstanding experience with Captain Chris on our very first family fishing trip on a boat. He was professional, knowledgeable, and made the day enjoyable and memorable for all of us. Since I am prone to motion sickness, he checked on me throughout the trip to make sure I was comfortable, which I truly appreciated. We had a successful day on the water, catching stingrays, trout, and drum. Captain Chris was patient, personable, and created a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere that put everyone at ease. We highly recommend Captain Chris to anyone looking for a top-notch fishing charter. We look forward to booking another trip with him in the future!

Captain Chris was great, would recommend!!
Half Day Trip on June 4, 20262 adults

My son and I decided we would do our first fishing charter this year for his college graduation. Captain Chris was great all the way around. we had hoped to catch some fish for dinner but they just were not biting, which happens. The weather leading yp to our trip was not great but we got great weather for the trip. Despite not catching dinner, Capt Chris found us something to catch, stingrays! We had a great time and could not recommend Capt Chris enough. Friendly, knowledgeable, and personable.

Great day on the water
Half Day Trip on May 28, 20262 adults

We had a wonderful experience on our fishing charter trip and really appreciated the care and effort put into the day. The owner was personable, kind, and very communicative, making everything easy and enjoyable from start to finish. He worked hard trying different fishing spots to give us the best experience possible. We even caught a couple bluefish and had a great time together as a family. We’d absolutely book another trip again and highly recommend this charter to others.

Good fishing, exceptional Captain
Half Day Trip - 1:00 PM on May 29, 20262 adults

Captain Chris was helpful, down to earth and personable. He was incredibly accommodating to my wife’s inexperience and my experience in different kinds of fishing. He was a great teacher and helped us understand the fishing, the conditions, and even the culture of the Outer Banks, and never once had a whit of being condescending. All in all, the most genuine fishing guide that I have ever gone out with. Would recommend him to anyone and everyone.
