Oak Island Speckled Trout Fishing Charters

This is a full day of fishing where you will spend 8 hours on the inshore waters targeting Flounder, Redfish, Sheepshead, Stingray. Trout, and other local species. You will have enough time to change a few productive locations during this trip.

*** Meet in downtown Wilmington, NC (about 1 hour from OIB) *** for a 6-hour winter Striped Bass trip on the Cape Fear River. We’ll fish artificial lures only around bridges, docks, and river structure for hard-fighting stripers (typically 2–10 lbs). This is catch-and-release only. All gear, lures, and licenses included. Family-friendly—no experience needed.

This 6-hour trip will give you more time to catch fish and enjoy nature. Target Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Redfish, and many more. One thing is for sure – you'll have a lot of fun with Capt. Tripp.

Spend the entire day on the water, chasing bull Red, trophy Trout, and a ton of tasty Flounder in the bays and nearshore waters around Carolina Beach.

3/4 day charters are geared toward the more hard-core anglers who are willing to wait out the fish or want to venture nearshore on calmer days for trolling and reef fishing. These charters are great for catching King and Spanish Mackerel as well as Cobia when those species are running in the area.

The 3/4-day trip is perfect for those that want to spend some extra time on the water. Lasting for 6 hours, it gives guests the opportunity to spend most of their day on the boat fishing. This trip is perfect for those that want to try different styles of fishing. For example, you can begin the day fly fishing or bait fishing, and then switch the styles depending on your preference throughout the day.

Inshore/Nearshore fishing, targeting specific species based on our best chances to have the most fun and successful day on the water. We'll be using an array of fishing techniques, from trolling, jigging, casting, and bottom fishing. I can take preferences on specific species to fish for. I will be honest and advise if that's a good target for the time of year.
