Captain Froggy’s Charter Fishing is a sought after charter located in Wanchese, NC. Captain Froggy provides professional fishing trips that sell as hotcakes. If you want to place your bet on one charter to take you out and turn your day into a great fishing adventure, book your spot.

Wanchese overlooks some of the finest fishing spots in the area. Pamlico Sound lies nearby, and the waters of the Atlantic Ocean are a boat ride away. This means that Captain Froggy knows how to put you on a variety of fish. You can easily be having the catch of your life with him onboard.

You’ll go fishing aboard a 25’ Carolina Skiff center console that can take up to six people. She is powered by a 250 HP Suzuki 4 Stroke engine and can reach speeds of up to 35 knots. In her lifetime, Here Fishy Fishy has taken numerous customers out on the water and provided memorable fishing excursions to many kids.

The boat is rigged with the standard safety and navigational equipment, and also has a flybridge, live bait well and an ice box. For more precision and better catch, she is equipped with outriggers and downriggers. Whether you want to trolling for Spanish Mackerel or simply cast a jig for Redfish and Flounder, Captain Froggy knows how to go about it. He’s also a grandfather of nine, and simply adores when kids come along.

When you step onboard, you’ll be greeted by the captain and his first mate. You’ll get rods, reels and tackle, lures and live bait. No need to worry about the licence, it’s been taken care of, so sharpen your grip - all the fish you catch is yours.

Depending on the season and fish biting, you will encounter the likes of Striped Bass, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Redfish. Cobia and Tuna are not an uncommon sight. These fish swim at different distances from the shore, and that will determine what you’ll catch. One thing is sure, though - Captain Froggy’s Fishing Charters is a safe choice whatever water you fish.

    This trip takes place in the ocean. You normally stay relatively close to the shore, and target Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish, Cobia, and Redfish. It provides variety, so if that suits you, this might be just the perfect morning action. The gear is onboard, pack your stuff, and come along.

    A bit later start time, but still plenty of bite. You head out to the ocean, and usually target Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish, Cobia and Redfish. If you only have four hours and still want some variety of fish, this is an excellent match. No need to bring the gear, it's waiting for you onboard.

    This trip takes you out to the ocean. You'll target many species of Shark. Since most are protected, it is catch and release only, unless we are fortunate enough to catch Cobia along the way. It is great fun, good hard fights, and often lots of action.

Born and raised right here in coastal North Carolina. I have fished ever since I was old enough to walk. Fishing and hunting are my passion, and I am blessed to be able to do it as a living. I am a grandfather of 9 and love kids. There is nothing like seeing the smile on a kid's face when they catch a fish.
