Looking to make some great memories in the beautiful Outer Banks fishing a 53’ Carolina Sportfishing boat, we have great affordable rates in the OBX!

Blue/ White Marlin, Sailfish, Bluefin/Yellowfin/Bigeye/Blackfin Tuna, Mahi, Wahoo, and many more Big gamefish can be caught in these waters:

Reely Catchy Sportfishing is equipped with the latest tackle to handle all offshore and nearshore species. This includes Tiagra 130W/80W/50W and Penn 70 VIIS when specifically targeting Tuna on the troll. We use a mix of Shimano Talica ’50s, Tiagra ’30s through ’80s, Ocean Runners, and BFC’s for daily trolling use which will handle everything from Mahi, Tuna, and Billfish, including the Blue Marlin.

Our bottom fishing package includes everything from electric reels to lightweight Ocean Runner 12 IIs with Shimano Trevala rods.

For bailing Dolphin we use high-end spinning tackle that includes Shimano and St. Croix rods coupled with Shimano Stratic and Saragosa reels from 4000 a 10000 class.

Additionally, Reely Catchy Sportfishing can deploy a green stick to target Tunas when they get shy on the troll, an experience that is totally unique for most charter groups.

Children are welcome, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Child-sized life vests are available. Don't forget to bring snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

You'll be casting, trolling or live baiting lines from a Ray Davis 53' Sportfishing boat that holds up to 6 passengers — equipped with outriggers, downriggers and a fighting chair to crank in the big one.

Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is included.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is set and all you have to do is reel, our mate works for 20% or better tips. Please be sure to tip the crew. Let’s make a lifetime of memories fishing the best place on the East Coast with Reely Catchy Sportfishing!

Zach and the crew were great. We pregamed our trip months in advance for my son's bachelor party weekend. Unfortunately, weather intervened, and we couldn't go out. That's why I am writing this review. The guys were disappointed, same as us. And while they could have taken us to bob around in some calmer waters and taken our money, they did right by us. They wanted us to have a great experience with them...and they still do. I can tell you we will be back, and we will 100% be giving our business to these guys. They earned it.

Nice boat, great captain and 1st mate
6 Hour Trip — Beginner on May 12, 20253 adults2 children
We chose a 4 hour near-shore excursion in the morning. Captain and crew were ready to go on time and extra friendly. Had multiple bites but only caught one keeper. We didn’t get skunked so we call it a win, that’s why they call it fishing 🎣. Captain went out of his way to make sure our seasick daughter got back to calmer waters and was then able to participate. 10 out of 10. Great fun and fishing!

8 Hour Offshore — Intermediate on June 6, 20254 adults
We popped in for the weekend and did a 2 day with the great captain and crew! They were knowledgeable, friendly and good fishermen knowing exactly where to take us. One of the days the captain didn’t have a first mate so we helped out but he did an incredible job of making sure we had fun and still caught fish! We’ll definitely be back!

The captain took the time to discuss with my husband what we was hoping to fish for, and the crew worked hard to provide a great environment, kid friendly, and everyone caught fish. Will be back!
