    First but NOT last fishing trip!

    2 Hour Quick Fix - 1:00 PM • 4 adults

    Our family of four, including two teenagers, had an outstanding experience with Captain Chris on our very first family fishing trip on a boat. He was professional, knowledgeable, and made the day enjoyable and memorable for all of us. Since I am prone to motion sickness, he checked on me throughout the trip to make sure I was comfortable, which I truly appreciated. We had a successful day on the water, catching stingrays, trout, and drum. Captain Chris was patient, personable, and created a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere that put everyone at ease. We highly recommend Captain Chris to anyone looking for a top-notch fishing charter. We look forward to booking another trip with him in the future!

    Captain Chris was great, would recommend!!

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    My son and I decided we would do our first fishing charter this year for his college graduation. Captain Chris was great all the way around. we had hoped to catch some fish for dinner but they just were not biting, which happens. The weather leading yp to our trip was not great but we got great weather for the trip. Despite not catching dinner, Capt Chris found us something to catch, stingrays! We had a great time and could not recommend Capt Chris enough. Friendly, knowledgeable, and personable.

    Great day on the water

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    We had a wonderful experience on our fishing charter trip and really appreciated the care and effort put into the day. The owner was personable, kind, and very communicative, making everything easy and enjoyable from start to finish. He worked hard trying different fishing spots to give us the best experience possible. We even caught a couple bluefish and had a great time together as a family. We’d absolutely book another trip again and highly recommend this charter to others.

    Bluefish (Tailor)

    Amazing Fishing Trip!

    2 Hour Quick Fix • 2 adults

    We had the best time fishing with Captain Chris! He was so nice, attentive, and made the whole experience so enjoyable. We are relatively new to fishing, and he was great at helping us along and making sure we were having fun and getting the most out of our time on the water. My daughter and I had such a great time and made some wonderful memories together. We absolutely loved the experience and would definitely go fishing with him again!

    Good fishing, exceptional Captain

    Half Day Trip - 1:00 PM • 2 adults

    Captain Chris was helpful, down to earth and personable. He was incredibly accommodating to my wife’s inexperience and my experience in different kinds of fishing. He was a great teacher and helped us understand the fishing, the conditions, and even the culture of the Outer Banks, and never once had a whit of being condescending. All in all, the most genuine fishing guide that I have ever gone out with. Would recommend him to anyone and everyone.

    After checking the weather Captain Cobb moved our trip up a few days and it was a beautiful morning. He put us on some Spanish mackerel and bluefish and worked hard to keep us busy. We will use him again. It was a great overall experience.

    I took my son and his 2 friends (neither of whom had fished before) & Chris was phenomenal. Worked to get us on fish, patient, explained the techniques and what we were doing and got us on some great fish. I’ve been coming to OBX and fishing for 20 years and Captain Chris is as good as they come. We’ll definitely be back. No one better.
