Great time, lots of fish
5/5
Capt Terry knows the area very well and he put us on fish the entire 4 hr trip. The highlight was a 37 lb red drum. Caught black drum, trout and a score of other fish. Other boats that went out at same time didn’t have as great a day as we did! Highly recommend Capt Terry.

Hardest working captain in Nags Head!
5/5
High winds and chop in the Croatan Sound made getting on the fish a real challenge. However, Captain Chris continued to adjust tactics and locations until we got on a honey hole of big Black Drum. What a fun time it was to fight those bull dog fish!!!

Great Captain and amazing with kids!
5/5
Great guy to fish with. Very informative and great to talk to in general! The Captain was honest about our chances on what was biting but once we had fish in the cooler he was hands down willing to try to fish for different species. We ended the day with 7 Speckle Trout, 1 sheep’s head and 1 black drum on a 4 hour trip and made it exciting for my step son every step of the way! I will definitely be booking future trips with them, thank you for the great experience!
