6 Hour Trip – Live Bait/Trolling on September 5, 20262 adults2 children

Second year in a row fishing with Captain Fox and AJ, and they are guys are awesome. Took my two boys out with them again this year and we had an absolute blast. Fox worked his ass off to keep us on fish, and AJ was absolutely Johnny on the spot all day. The guy never stopped moving—baiting hooks, getting lines back out, taking care of the fish, and making sure we always had hooks in the water. He was on top of everything from start to finish. What I really appreciate about these guys is that they don’t just take you out, drop some lines and call it a day. They work. When something isn’t producing, they’re changing things up and trying to find the fish. You can tell they actually care whether you have a good trip. Two years in a row with sprain Fox and AJ, and there’s a reason we came back. We’ll definitely be fishing with Fox and AJ again. I highly recommend these guys to anyone looking for a great day on the water.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 Experience with FoxSea Lady!
3 Hour Trip (AM) on July 14, 20262 adults2 children

We had an absolute blast on our trip with FoxSea Lady in Carolina Beach! Right from the start, the captain proved how much he cares about his guests—he contacted us beforehand to move our trip to a different day so we could avoid rough seas and have the best possible experience. It paid off big time! We caught a ton of fish and even landed a shark! The captain and first mate were warm, helpful, and kept us entertained the entire time. They made sure everyone in our family had a great time and felt completely taken care of. We would 100% recommend FoxSea Lady to anyone visiting Carolina Beach. We can't wait to book with them again!

THE BEST TIME!
4 Hour Trip – Reef - 1:00 PM on July 4, 20262 adults

We seriously enjoyed our trip from start to finish. It was hot and beautiful the whole time. Fox and AJ are great down to earth guys who know what they’re doing and have fun while doing it. Caught all kinds of different fish. Itty bitty to a baby shark (doo doo da doo)😂 We pull into dock and get to watch two huge sea turtles! Then to end our fishing trip, we caught a Trigger fish and AJ cleaned for us while Fox called a great restaurant, Stoked, who cooked it for us! Tasted amazing! You can not have more fun on any other boat! Thank you gents for the great laughs, the shark jump scare, and the slimy stuff AJ all day😂 See you all soon!

Highly Recommend Fox Sea Lady Charters!
4 Hour Trip – Reef - 1:00 PM on June 29, 20262 adults1 child

We had an absolutely fantastic day on the water with Fox Sea Lady Charters! From the very beginning, their communication was excellent, making the entire booking process easy and stress-free. Captain Fox was awesome, super friendly, calm, welcoming, and incredible with our kids. He made everyone feel comfortable and safe from the moment we stepped on the boat until we returned to the dock. The boat itself was spotless and fully equipped with everything needed for a great day of fishing. A huge shoutout to First Mate AJ, who was absolutely fantastic! He was friendly, welcoming, easy to talk to, and just an all-around pleasure to spend the day with. He worked hard to make sure we had a great experience and even cleaned and filleted all of our catch before we headed home. We booked the 4-hour charter and spent time trolling as well as fishing the reef. The trolling produced plenty of Spanish mackerel, and we even landed a huge king mackerel! Once we moved to the reef, the action was nonstop, we were catching fish one after another, and everyone had a blast. This was one of the best fishing charters we’ve been on, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book with Fox Sea Lady Charters again, in fact, we can’t wait to plan our next trip. If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly, safe, and successful day on the water, we highly recommend them!

5 Hour Trip - 1:00 PM on June 6, 20262 adults1 child

8-80 the foxy sea lady is the boat to be on!!! great boat, amazing fishing, but best of all was the crew!!!! Fox and Aj took care of us like we were family. They made the experience fun and educational for my kids and i think helped me get 2 new fishermen hooked!! They are willing to give the customer what they want but if you are smart enough to let them be the pros they will do all they can do to put you on fish and most importantly keep you safe. We will see them again soon. Great fishing,great fun, and great stories!!
