    Great time fishing!

    2 Hour Trip – Sunset5 adults

    I booked the 2 hour sunset trip with my son and his 3 buddies that are stationed close by. Capt. Wayne was awesome! Friendly, easy going and attentive to everyone fishing. There were 5 of us and we all caught multiple fish, including sea robin, pig fish, spot, croaker, trout and even a puffer fish! They weren’t big fish, but the guys had a great time catching multiple. It made for a friendly competition. I think there was a tie for the most at 13 fish! We will definitely book again and go on a longer trip next time. Thank you!

    Tough day but we got ‘em in the end!

    6 Hour Trip2 adults

    Captain Wayne was awesome! We had a tough day battling the red tide, but he never lost confidence that we’d eventually find the fish. He stayed in touch with at least a dozen other guides, and none of them had seen a single cobia all day. Still, Captain Wayne wasn’t about to give up. We covered a lot of water, and in the end, his persistence paid off. He put us right on the cobia, we caught our limit, and had an absolute blast doing it. If you’re looking for a guide who’s willing to put in the work to make your trip a success, Captain Wayne is your guy!

    So fun!

    2 Hour Trip – Sunset2 adults1 child

    I took my family on a sunset trip for a couple of hours and it was a blast! My kids are young, so wanted to make sure the trip wasn’t too long and that we’d catch fish they could handle. Captain Wayne delivered on this and more. He and TJ were great with my kids, which also allowed my wife and I some time to enjoy the sunset and experience. All told I think my kids caught more than I did, and that’s just fine with me. I highly recommend this charter!

    Captain Wayne and TJ make it happen!

    6 Hour Trip3 adults

    Fair conditions today and the Cobia were elusive but Captain Wayne put us on the fish. Captain Wayne found a huge pod of Cobia. He and TJ hooked 4 fish in minutes. We had our 2 keepers and fished for another hour catching 1 more nice fish. Highly recommend Captain Wayne for your next Cobia trip.

What's biting with Chasin’ Wake Charters in Hampton

While some pelagics are making their way to warmer waters as the weather threatens to change, warm-blooded Yellowfin and Bluefin Tuna are here to stay. Battle these beasts and land plenty of meat.
