If you're thinking of North Carolina, excellent sportfishing, and a friendly captain who wants you to have a great fishing trip, you're thinking Leverdrag Charters.
Hop aboard their 26' Seafox center console, capable of holding 4 anglers comfortably at the same time. She's powered by a 300 HP Yamaha engine, giving her enough juice to develop a cruising speed of 24 knots. Outriggers, downriggers, and a live bait well are available on board, to ensure your trolling can go without a hitch, so you can just focus on catching the fish.
The fish targeted on this charter are very varied, and you can pick out what fits your fishing style and desire. If you're up for some shallow-water action, species such as Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish, and others are available. For those who prefer the deep blue, you can go after King and Spanish Mackerel, Great Barracuda, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, even a Sailfish if you come across one.
Captain Joe is a seasoned fishing veteran, and his preferred technique is trolling. He won't shy away from other styles though, light and heavy tackle, drift fishing and spinning are all on the menu. The charter provides all the necessary fishing equipment. Customers are advised to bring sunscreen, a long-sleeved shirt, and polarized sunglasses.
Fish cleaning and filleting is available free of charge. A fishing license is included as well. There is no minimum age policy for children and Captain Joe encourages young anglers to come aboard. Pickup is available from hotels, but customers are advised to get in touch with the charter to confirm if pickup is available from their location.
The Captain and crew are fully vaccinated against Covid-19.

Captain Joe was very personable easy to hang out with and fish! with very knowledgeable along with just being an overall good person to be with. Me and my wife went out on the water for the first time to go saltwater fishing and before our trip he made sure that we were comfortable and understood what we were getting into. At the end of it all after a bunch of good conversation, we made a new friend and he even cleaned the fish for us. Not only cleaning the fish. He also taught us how to clean the fish. Really great guy definitely gonna go again.
Thanks Langston. Glad u guys had a good time. . It was a pleasure having yall . See u next time . Capt Joe

Absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish. The fish weren’t biting much that day, but Joe worked hard to keep us on them and we still managed to catch some nice fish. Very knowledgeable, professional, and made the experience enjoyable the whole time. We created memories we’ll be talking about for years. If you’re looking for a top-notch fishing charter with excellent service and an unforgettable experience, this is the one to book. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely
Thanks Barb . It was a pleasure having you guys out fishing . I look forward to seeing yall again soon . Capt Joe

Joe was great! He got my 8 y/o daughter on appropriately sized fish and kept them coming throughout (lizard fish, Spanish mackerel, and blue fish). she had a blast catching her first and subsequent fish. He was happy to accommodate my stomach and move to calmer waters which really salvaged the trip for me too!
THANKS NELSON . I WAS GLAD TO BE APART OF YOUR DAUGHTERS FIRST FISH , IT WAS A PLEASURE HAVING U GUYS OUT FISHING .. I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU GUYS AGAIN . THANKS AGAIN CAPT. JOE

I booked a 4hr morning fishing trip for 5 of us (a 14yr old and 4 adults). We had a beautiful morning sunrise as we set out and Captain Joe's boat was very nice and accommodated all of us well. He definitely knows how to find us fish because we were reeling in Spanish Mackerel within the first 15 min of trolling. After 3.5 hrs of being on the water, we had caught 31 Spanish Mackerel (15lbs)! Captain Joe was very entertaining and made our trip memorable. I can see why he's got so many 5 star reviews. I would highly recommend him as your captain for your next fishing excursion!
Thanks Holly . You guys where awesome . I look forward to see you again soon . Thanks again Capt. Joe
Let’s be honest here! It’s the dead of summer in WB and the niece and nephews have fished since young.. they know .. if there are no fish it’s not the CPTs fault. So going into this with a 16 YOF 15 YOM and 10YOM (with arm cast) I was very lucky. Little did we expect first reels released and fish catching .. it was non stop at times..: and we won’t complain.. yes we couldn’t keep those fish or eat them but the kids went in knowing that and were just happy to catch and release! We did catch two mackerel we took home for fish tacos that were amazing. Thank you Cpt Joe!
Thanks Abigail. It was a pleasure having you guys on board . See u next time ... Capt. Joe
