Fish Whistle Chartering 

Perfect day, perfect trip! Captain Randy & 1st Mate Nick gave us an anniversary trip to remember!! I can’t say enough about this team. Captain Randy has all the skill & knowledge you’d expect from a guy born & raised on the water and dedicated to a life of professional fishing. 1st Mate Nick, on top of his quality as a top-notch sidekick, is as down-to-earth as they come and easily balanced keeping 5 lines in the water while telling stories of life with his wife & young children, sharing WONDERFUL recipes for our catch (ask about his wife’s recipe for Spanish Mackeral-you can thank me later), and making this husband & wife rookie fishing team look like a couple of seasoned pros!! Nick seemed more like a good friend than just someone running a business. I’ll be back! I’m already checking my calendar for my next trip! Gotta catch some tuna!! Can’t wait for our next trip with you guys!!

We booked at 6 hour live bait trip. We wanted a boat that would get us out to the big fish fast and this was the one. We caught our limit (8) Amberjacks, one Cobia, and one Barracuda. We had three teenagers in the group including one that had never been out and the mate Brandon was great with them. Don’t bother looking at other boats, I am sure they are great too, but Fish Whistle is the way to go!

We had a great time even tho some of our crew got sea sick, the captain was very friendly and made sure everyone was comfortable! The captain and crew anwsered all of our questions! We can’t wait to book again!

Our fishing trip was such an incredible time! We were fortunate to have calm waters and clear blue skies for both days (an 8h and a 4h trip) which made for beautiful fishing weather. The Captain and Mate were friendly and skillful in getting us situated on board and teaching us about how they look for certain fish species. We landed Amberjack, King Mackerel, Bonita, and Spanish Mackerel to keep, as well as catch and release of two big flounder. If you want a cheerful trip with folks who know the area well and are skilled, safe, and energetic then this is the charter to pick. We would definitely get back out on the water with them any time!

I wanted to surprise my grandparents with a fishing charter for their anniversary and I couldn’t have picked a better crew to do that with. Captain Lomax and his First Mate Nick were absolutely phenomenal. Nick made sure my grandma had plenty of chances to catch her own fish and even held the rod for her to be able to reel them in. The Captain and Nick really work well as a team together and are very knowledgeable about everything you’ll be doing. The boat was awesome and we caught more fish than I expected to, including a Bonita! Everyone had such a great time and now we want to make that an annual trip for us! Don’t book anywhere else, this is definitely the best crew in our area.

We had an awesome half day out trolling on a beautiful Sunday morning. Captain Randall and his first mate Nick. We left on time a 7am. Shortly after getting out of the inlet and setting the lines we were catching fish. One thing I noticed was that about 3 or 4 other charter boats were following us when we were circling the fish. When we'd change spots and start catching again there they were again. We caught 14 Spanish Mackerel, some good eats. The boat was a great size for going out your first time, it had all the essentials and was big enough where we didn't get tossed around too bad. Looking forward to eventually doing a full day out or going out for Mahi season in the future, it was a ton of fun.

We had a great trip out catching dinner for the next couple nights! Captain was very knowledgeable when it came to the fish we were catching and waters we were in. The boat was perfect for getting out to the spots fast to ensure more time reeling in fish!

I had a great time, and though we didn't catch many keepers, we had a wonderful day on the water, the captain and 1st Mate were very friendly, helpful and kept us entertained and everyone in our group and a terrific time and hope to go again next year!!

These were the most professional guides and they taught us how to catch, lure, and clean. If you want a great experience and the ability to learn as you go this is the charter for you. Best memory of our entire trip…worth every dollar spent! Our first time on the ocean fishing and they made us want more. Cannot sing their praises enough! We will certainly book them again.

We recently had the pleasure of going on a fishing trip with Capt'n Randy and First Mate Grady on the Fish Whitsle, and let me tell you, it was an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, they provided top-notch service that truly elevated the entire adventure. First off, their accommodation of picking us up and dropping us off at Bald Head Island Marina was a game-changer. While there was a fee involved, it was well worth the convenience and saved us a lot of hassle. The process was seamless, and it's evident that Randy and Grady prioritize their customers' comfort and convenience. But let's talk about the fishing itself – that's where Randy and Grady truly shine. These guys are not only experienced, but they have an uncanny knack for locating fish. It was like they had a sixth sense about where the fish were congregating. This translated to an incredibly productive day on the water. From reeling in various species to experiencing the thrill of the catch, every moment was exciting and fulfilling. What impressed me the most was their ability to keep the day lively and engaging between the fish biting on the rod. Fishing can sometimes have its slower moments, but Randy and Grady were masters at keeping the energy up. Their anecdotes, stories, and insights about the area and the marine life added an extra layer of enjoyment to the trip. It never felt like a dull moment. Their professionalism and passion for what they do were evident throughout the trip. They were attentive to our needs and preferences, always ready to answer questions or offer guidance. It's clear that they are not just fishing guides – they are true enthusiasts who genuinely care about making the experience unforgettable for their clients. In conclusion, if you're looking for an exceptional fishing adventure, Randy and Grady are the guys to go to. From the convenient transportation arrangement to their impressive fish-locating skills and their ability to keep the day fun and engaging, they provided an all-around amazing experience. My trip with them at the Bald Head Island Marina was one for the books, and I can't wait to book another excursion with them in the future!
