If fishing in Carolina Beach is on your bucket list, look no further than Live-N-Good Charters. With Captain Jacob at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.
Depending on conditions, you might hook into Redfish, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Striped Bass, Bluefish, and whatever else is biting. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light tackle.
Capt. Jacob welcomes children aboard, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Also remember to bring snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!
Your vessel for the day is a 20' KenCraft skiff that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has all the essentials. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it.
A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. Time to make it happen, with Live-N-Good Charters!

2 Hour Trip – Fun Fishing on June 26, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 childrenCaptain Jacob was absolutely amazing! He was super patient with us, kept in constant communication before our trip, and worked around our schedule, which we really appreciated.

4 Hour Trip on August 6, 2026 • 4 adultsCaptain Jake was early , courteous and ready to go when we got there. He was extremely friendly and dun to meet. We went out to catch bait and git the spots.
