Knot Wish’n Custom Charters is an inshore light tackle specialist guide service operating out of Virginia Beach, VA. Climb aboard for a fun-filled, affordable fishing trip with a friendly atmosphere and an experienced guide.

Your boat for the day will be a 23’ Parker center console. This sturdy vessel is perfect for family groups thanks to her high sides and makes for a stable ride both at speed and when fishing. She has room aboard for up to six guests, so bring all your friends and family along!

The boat has GPS, a fishfinder, and Captain Todd Beck’s three decades of local knowledge guiding you to the best spots.

Capt. Todd specializes in short, family-friendly charters going after tasty fish like Trout, Redfish, and Spanish Mackerel. If you’re looking for something more hard-hitting, just let him know. You can target Cobia, Bull Redfish, and King Mackerel depending on the season.

Whatever you’re after, Knot Wish’n Custom Charters are, well, custom! You can choose what you want for your day. And with three different starting times, you can also choose when you go. Just bring your food, drinks, and any other personal items, and get ready for a great fishing trip.

Super Captain

4 Hour Trip – Ocean (PM) on June 27, 2024

This trip was to introduce my 13-year-old grandson to saltwater fishing. Captain Todd knew this and instantly took my grandson under his wing, explaining the how and why of everything we/he was doing. From how to set the different lines, check for grass on the line and how to unhook the fish and then let him do it as he coached him. My grandson can't stop talking about the trip which is exactly what I had hoped for. If you're a seasoned fisherman or want to do what I did with your family, Captain Todd is your man. He's been doing this for 19 years and knows the area and where the fish should be. Rember, it's fishing and sometimes the fish don't cooperate. BTW, we caught plenty of fish. Icing on the cake. I would definitely recommend captain Todd to anyone who is looking for a good time on the water. Already planning something for the fall. Dennis Andersen

3 Hour Trip – Rudee Inlet (AM) on March 19, 2025

Capt. Todd is the kind of guide you appreciate. Professional, thoughtful, and ready to make suggestions. He knew where the fish would be. We caught 3 fish and had some bites. It was cold weather, so the fish weren't as active, but that's the chance you take. It was a lovely morning none the less. When it is on the cooler side I recommend an afternoon trip.

Father son trip

3 Hour Trip – Rudee Inlet (PM) on March 22, 2025

Booked Todd after a last minute change of plans for a father and son trip. We had a blast. Even though it was windy, Todd was able to help us have a great time on the water and we even managed to reel in some decent sized fish. With Todd’s instructions, my son was casting like a pro in no time. I would highly recommend Todd.

My wife and I went on a quick 3 hour Inlet Charter and had an amazing time! The captain put in us some nice reds. He was extremely down to earth and enjoyed sharing his knowledge of the local fishery and restaurants. Would definitely recommend it.
