Catch and Cruise NC welcomes you to the stunning waters of Wilmington. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Gabriel 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 Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Amberjack, Bluefish, Skipjack, Mahi Mahi, Gag Grouper, Wahoo, Blackfin Tuna, Vermilion Snapper, Scup (Porgy), Bull Shark, 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. For the more adventurous among you, there's bow-fishing.
Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. And, you can't go wrong with snacks!
Your vessel for the day is a 29' World Cat that can carry up to 6 passengers (4-5 for best comfort). It has outriggers, downriggers, all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.
Don't forget to bring sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be some bottled water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own drinks. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks provided on board.

Top comments from our kids (ages 4-12): “I give it a 10 out of 10 stars!” “I loved catching that chonker of a Drum fish.” “Dad, that was the most fun I’ve ever had fishing.” Despite not having the best weather for the trip, Gabe and Brett made the trip memorable. The kids loved going fast on the boat, learning about the different fish and the different baits to catch them. Their excited smiles were well worth it. Thanks again!
Catching sharks made our grandson trip to the beach memorable. Captain Gabe had great patience with 6 inexperienced fisherman. A good day for all. He filleted the fish and gave pointers for a feast. Ideal for all ages. Our ages spanned 6 to 72. Just book and enjoy the day.
Gabrielle was awesome! 10/10 recommend taking a trip with him and going fishing. He was attentive and kind and we all caught sharks and multiple other species of fish! 9ft Tiger shark was lurking around us and was truly an amazing experience
our captain gabrielle showed that he loves fishing no matter the circumstances that come about . although we experienced some gnarly weather , our captain worked hard all day to put us on the bite. we enjoyed our day with gabrielle and would highly recommend his charter service.
Nate was our ships captain, he was young, but he knew how to navigate the local waters. We caught a good collection of fish, he was accommodating to our individual needs, and a great time for our day on the water. Very realistic about what we would catch and where, and overall we had a great day on the water. Would highly recommend
