Make some memories in Sneads Ferry and go fishing with Onslow Bay Waterman Charters. With Captain Kevin at the helm, you’re in knowledgeable and experienced hands.
You’re likely to fish for Black Drum, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Black Seabass, Blacktip Shark, Vermilion Snapper, Gag Grouper, Mahi Mahi, Grunt, and more, depending on the season. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! 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 vessel for the day is a 24’ Center console with a capacity for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, along with lures.
There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain. A few items to bring include sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Now, come aboard with Onslow Bay Waterman Charters and get hooked!

Half Day Trip – Inshore
The boat was nice and Kevin was amazing! There were five of us including two young girls with almost no fishing experience and rest with very little. Kevin helped us with the bait and the equipment and we reeled in about 25 fish from about 10.species over our four hours. We kept 3 drums 3 sheepheads and 2 croakers for our dinner for 9 of us. We spent time fishing under the bridge where we really reeled em in then spent some really nice time in the beautiful inlet water for a different experience. Would recommend to anyone especially those without much experience.

Captain Kevin was outstanding and provided a great half day of onshore fishing for our party of 3. He kept us on fish and sent us home with plenty! He was also very informative, entertaining, and a super nice guy. I highly recommend Captain Kevin to anyone seeking a great day on the water!
