3/4 Day Trip - AM
Cap. Chadwick was great! He knows the waters and knows fishing. My buddy and I brought our two young children and they had a great time between catching Shark and 25-30lb Amber Jack! I would recommend South End anglers to anyone looking for a great day on the water!

A cold front blew in right before the trip and kind of slowed the fishing down, but Chad still found the fish. We took home enough for supper, and caught some really pretty speckled trout and huge flounder.

My family of 4 had a great trip w/ Capt. Chadwick this weekend. The ocean was a bit to rough so we stayed inland and fished in much calmer waters trying a variety of techniques and landed a trout, a few drum, and a few other species. He really knows his stuff and was a pleasure to hang w/ for a few hours. Our trip was only supposed to go until 10am but we stayed out until 11am so we could net a few more keepers. Capt. Chadwick also fileted the fish when we go in. They made a nice dinner for the 4 of us!

Captain Chadwick was awesome. We has great weather and ended up getting some quality Spanish Mackerel. Captain Chadwick was determined to find us the fish that’s exactly what happened. I would highly recommend Captain Chadwick/South End Anglers to anyone looking for a great time in the Topsail Island area.
