Spend the day with Triple Trouble Fishing and get hooked on fishing in Wilmington!

You're likely to go after Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Black Drum, Bluefish, Skipjack, Black Grouper, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Scamp Grouper, Grunt, and more.

On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. For the more adventurous among you, there's spearfishing.

Capt. Selby is happy to have kids aboard, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Your fishing machine for the day is a 27' MayCraft pilothouse with capacity for 6 passengers. It has downriggers, a fighting chair, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is included, 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.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

You could keep reading this, but wouldn't you rather be fishing with Triple Trouble Fishing?

    Great Trip!

    Half DayCharter/ 4 hours - 6:00 AM on May 29, 2026 • 5 adults

    We really enjoyed our time out fishing with Captain Selby and Matt. The captain got us out over the fish, and Matt was extremely attentive, move very quickly to remove fish from hooks and re-bait. While we weren't able to catch anything to bring home, we caught plenty of fish to keep us busy and have a good time.

    Spanish Spanish and more Spanish

    4 Hour Trip - 11:00 AM on October 9, 2026 • 5 adults

    We had a great trip. Trolled the beach and caught a ton of spanish mackerel. The fish were stored on ice and then fileted at the dock. We cooked it up that night and had a delicious meal for 10 people. We can’t wait to do it again.

    Rock solid trip

    4 Hour Trip - 11:00 AM on June 28, 2026 • 5 adults

    My wife, two sons, and my oldest son's girlfriend caught some rays, caught some fish, and caught an all-around good time from the Capt and his excellent deckman Matt. He used multiple baits and checked out several hot spots to keep the action flowing. I strongly recommend TT.
