Fishng with Captain Tommy is a must when visiting the Outer Banks. We have gone with the Hatterascal the last few years and it has gotten better every year! This year we caught “only” around 20 bluefish and Spanish mackerel which gave 8 of us about 2 dinners worth! His stories and knowledge about the island is second to none. The kids (12, 15) were entertained and pulling in fish. It was such an enjoyable day on the water and we are looking forward to next years trip already!

Captain Tommy with Hatterascal Charters gave us an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish. He was professional, knowledgeable, and made the entire trip fun and stress-free. You can tell he truly cares about his customers and knows these waters like the back of his hand. The boat was clean, well-kept, and everything was top notch. We caught plenty of fish and made memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re looking for a great charter with an experienced captain who works hard... Meer

Captain Tommy was friendly and professional.  He was very patient and helpful with getting our children to reel in the fish.  He answered all of our kids questions.  We had a lovely trip.  The captain was flexible about our timings and making sure we stayed out a long as we wanted but turned back when we wanted to get back.  We caught quite a but of fish despite it being the low season of fishing.

This was my wife’s and I’s first time doing a private charter and captain Tommy was very knowledgeable about the waters he has fished in his entire life. He was very patient with my wife and I. He explained and had a answer for every question we had. It was alot of fun. He made sure we caught fish on this trip. There was some dead spots, but captain Tommy quickly reacted to the situation and got us back on it quick. We even seen dolphins out there. And captain Tommy made sure got to see them... Meer

This fishing expierence was great! our kids got a little sea sick so we went to the shallow waters and caught mackeral and blue fish. This charter was accomodating to my young family. The captain was super nice to my 2, 7, and 12 year old. The boat is spacious, has cover if weather comes in or shade from the sun, a toilet, and plenty or seat area for kods to take naps in the shade. Check them out!
