We had the best time on the Inshore Lizardfish Charter. Richard and RJ were so helpful and friendly. My kids and I had never really fished before so we just wanted to give it a shot while we were visiting NC… We got so much more than we expected from this fishing trip. We learned about the local ecology, the ICW, and about the area. They’re both so knowledgeable and genuinely happy to share their insight. We all caught lots of fish, and one of the kids caught a massive Black Drum. We stopped at an island to try to get some shark teeth and RJ had the most amazing eye for finding them! We’re so happy to have met these guys. This charter far exceeded our expectations!! Highly recommend!

We flew in from out of town and faced multiple delays and even cancellations. Despite all that, Lizard Fish Charters was incredibly understanding—they told us not to worry and went above and beyond to reschedule our trip. Even with their own vacation plans, they made sure we didn’t miss out, which truly impressed us.

Once on the boat, the experience only got better. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and went out of their way to ensure we had an unforgettable time. Best of all? Everyone caught plenty of fish! Their expertise and top-tier customer service make them a standout.

If you’re within 100 miles of this area, do yourself a favor and book with Lizard Fish Charters. We’ll absolutely be returning—and we can’t thank them enough!

Spending the day on the local inshore channels, rivers and sounds of the Crystal Coast was a perfect way to elevate our Emerald Isle family vacation!  Despite high waves that kept us from venturing deep sea offshore, Captain Rick and First Mate RJ did a perfect job with making my family feel right at home on their well-equipped boat while navigating the beautiful waters of the area.  Fishing from several different spots, we pulled in a variety of great fish including sea bass, croakers, hogfish, blue fish, lizardfish, puffer fish and even a large flounder!  We capped off the day with bonus time hunting shark teeth on one of the inshore islands.  Captain Rick and RJ were super friendly while working very hard to make sure our group had a fantastic time!  Highly recommend Lizardfish Charters Offshore!

I couldn’t have asked for a better trip! I had a big ask for Capts Rick and Kristen and they absolutely hit a home run with every detail! They were safe with the kiddos, they helped the kiddos catch lots of fish and treated them with respect and overwhelming kindness. Capts Rick and Kristen were supportive of our younger and older kids alike, and they even helped the adults get some fishing time in!! I can’t wait to get out with them again!

We went for a day of snorkeling, shell hunting and just cruising. Captain Rick was great and Kristen gave us plenty of great history of the area. Highly recommended.
