I grew up on the Outer Banks fishing, surfing, and hunting. Taking advantage of what the ocean or the sound has to offer is a daily endeavor living here! Running a full time fishing charter has always been a dream of mine and I will give 110% to make sure everyone has a great time!

Kids First Saltwater Fishing Experience

Captain Chris worked really hard to put us on fish and keep my 10 and 6 year old boys busy. He was great with the kids and made sure to walk them through the process. Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely fish with him again!!!

What’s included in the trip price

Rods, reels & tackle

Occasionally we will catch our own bait at the start of the trip before looking for targeted species. Some days we just need extra to be successful. It’s an easy hands on process and enjoyable for everyone.

Fishing License

Everyone on board is covered with a fishing license for the duration of the trip.

How cancellations work

Free cancellation up to 3 days prior to trip

You may cancel your trip free of charge up to 3 days in advance. However, since your selected date is less than 3 days away, you may only cancel if it is unsafe to travel.

What the listing policies are

Pickup not included

Transfer to/from departure site is not included in trip rates.

Child Friendly

Some kids that love to fish do great on 4 and 6 hour trips. Through experience I’ve found 2 hour trips are best for younger children. I recommend kids be at least 5 years of age.

Catch and Release Allowed
