We had a wonderful time onboard. Although we skunked out in the Cobia we still managed to catch 22 Spanish Mackerel and 2 Blue Fish. Our day started with a once in a lifetime experience traveling through the world famed Oregon Inlet. We were on fish as soon as we dropped the lines in the water and 1st Mate Wyatt was knowledgeable and walked is through what to look for when hooked and how to bring the fish aboard. He also gave us insight to the history of winter duck hunting in the area and some ecosystem challenges happening at the local beaches. This will be a treasured memory for the entire family. I’d highly recomend Captain Elliott, 1st mate Wyatt, and the Roanoke for any fishing charters, you won’t be disappointed.

Perfect — that detail will make the review stand out. Here’s the updated version with your catch list added in:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

From start to finish, my experience with Roanoke Sportfishing was excellent. The booking process through FishingBooker was smooth, and the directions to the boat were clear and easy to follow. Parking was convenient, and finding the dock was no problem at all.

Captain Elliott was professional, welcoming, and made the whole trip enjoyable. He made sure we were comfortable, explained everything clearly, and knew exactly where to take us for the best fishing opportunities. His knowledge of the area and dedication to making sure everyone had a great time really stood out.

We ended up catching a great variety of fish — barracuda, bonita, mahi, tuna, and Spanish mackerel — which made the trip even more exciting. The boat was well kept, the gear was ready to go, and the entire experience felt organized and stress-free.

Whether you’re an experienced angler or just looking for a fun day on the water, I would highly recommend booking with Roanoke Sportfishing. I’ll definitely be coming back the next time I’m in the Outer Banks!

We initially had reserved for the day after we went but an approaching storm was going to prevent us from going. Captain Elliot was very kind and reached out to us ask if we would like to go early. We were stoked and made the trip. We left port, grabbed a bunch of baitfish and headed off to find our cache of fish. Roanoake sports fishing did not disappoint! Within two minutes of reaching our fishing grounds we were slaying 20 lb amberjacks which put up a great fight. We filled our quota and trolled for awhile on the way back to wanchese catching false albacore. Needless to say the boys and I had a wonderful time and recommend Captain Elliot’s tower trip. 10/10!!!

6 of us headed out on 8/11 after catching some live bait in the harbor. 1 hr run to the navy tower 25 miles offshore put us on some nice 30lbs amberjack which was a lot of fun for everyone. Trolled for dolphin and bigger creatures for 45 mins at the end. Weather was nice and the boat more than capable. Capt and crew were attentive. A nice combo trip for someone wanting more than inshore fishing but not wanting to do a 12 hr full offshore trolling trip.

We originally had a morning trip planned. However the wind would not let us go fishing that day. So we jumped on an afternoon trip couple days later it turned out to be a fantastic trip. We limited out on Black Seabass, and limited out on Mahi-Mahi. The Captain and First Mate did an exceptional job ensuring we were reeling in fish at all times, besides when we were traveling. I would highly recommend and would use them again in the future!
