Captain Chris took my family and I out in relatively tough conditions for reds. It’s been scorching heat for days, little to no wind, and the activity reflected that. It was a tough go for a minute, with trash fish and crabs plaguing us, but Chris kept his head on the swivel, and constantly moved us in search for fish. Fish are always biting, regardless of the conditions, and he knew that. It was just a matter of figuring them out. He got us on the reds, and in conditions like that, I’m confident he can get target fish in the boat regardless of the circumstances. I would highly recommend Chris for a trip. He is a young, high energy captain, with nothing but knowledge akin to captains who’ve been fishing for 20 years. It is evident he enjoys just being out there on the water, excited and passionate to pursue the fish he’s been after since he was a kid. With that being said, I would still give Chris 5 stars with zero fish on the line. It is extremely evident he is knowledgeable, and even experts have their days, but it is still fishing in the end. I’ve been on boats catching plenty of fish with captains who are cocky and standoffish. I would rather a day on the boat with Chris and no fish than a rude, salty captain any day of the week. Keep up the good work, man.
Went out for a 1/2 day trip on Coastal Flats with Captain Chris. 2 of my adult daughters and my Son-in law were with me. Captain Chris was awesome and put us on the fish !! Pulled in some nice Bull Redfish. He knows the area and is an excellent Captain. Whether going fishing or taking young kids for a nature ride, I highly recommend Captain Chris !!!
Capt. Chris led a great charter. Hit the water around 7 am and hit our limit on redfish in no time. Released a few more reds and some nice flounder as they were out of season. Capt. Chris definitely knows his way around these waters as we bounced around quite a bit when the bite slowed down looking for the fish. All equipment on board was top of the line and the boat ran great. Overall a great time and would recommend to anglers of any level.
An awesome outing. Captain Chris is extremely knowledgeable of the area. He put us on fish early. Looking forward to fresh fish meal this evening. Most impressed with his professionalism and the cleanliness of his boat. I would definitely recommend him for a fantastic trip.
We had a great time on this fishing charter in Hubert, NC! Captain Chris was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. We caught 2 redfish and even a stingray, which made the trip exciting and memorable. Captain Chris really knows the area and worked hard to help us have a successful day on the water. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun and relaxing fishing trip!

thank you guys! I am glad you enjoyed it!
