We had a trip with Will in late July 2021. He took us to a couple locations and kept us on the fish all day. We caught a lot of speckled trout and redfish. He was informative, funny and handled our group well. The boat had plenty of room for the 4 in our group. I would definitely recommend Will for a day out in the bay.
We had an absolutely great afternoon with Captain Will. My brother & I have been vacationing in OBX since we were little, and he and his wife are now full-time residents of KDH, so we thought taking a charter out on the sound would be a great way to find some cool boating areas for them in the future and also get some time with a local for some insights on the island and maybe some hidden gem restaurant recommendations! We got all of those things with Captain Will and more! I’ve taken my brother and sis-in-law fishing with me before, but couldn’t convince them to get on a line… they both reeled in a catch for their first time and were thrilled. Our group pulled in some massive Red Drum, a Speckled Trout, and some skate- all of which were released cleanly and hook free. Captain Will was so knowledgeable about EVERYTHING, was super fun to talk with, and had great stories. His boat was very clean, comfortable, and spacious- we had more than enough room for four adults with multiple bags and coolers. He also sells really cool Tshirts and sun shirts- my brother bought one and it’s great! I’m planning another trip back up to OBX this summer with my 10 year old and the first thing we’ll be doing is booking another charter with Captain Will! Thank you, Captain, for such a wonderful afternoon! (and for letting me snuggle my cute fishy really quick haha!)
He didnt even have all the lines in the water yet and we were catching fish!!!! 15 minutes into the trip we hooked on to a giant Red drum . Fought it for an hour between the 5 of us taking turns . Ended up netting it and getting it on the boat . It was 47in long and 50lbs !!!!!!!
My son, daughter-in-law and 3 grandkids all caught bluefish, some were their first fishing adventure. Though the fish weren’t cooperating, Will searched and kept it fun. memorable experience. Best for the whole family.
Captain Will put us on fish early on tough day . A comfortable and relaxed experience on a comfortable boat. Definitely recommend Reel Thang !
Weve been on Capt. Will’s boat and he delivered again. Got us on fish. Kept working to make our trio a success .. and it was!
