5 Hour Trip – Nearshore Trolling

Captain Brandon was awesome from the beginning. He responded to my questions right away. Tyler was great and was down in the action with us all day. The two of them made this trip. It also didn’t hurt that we caught over 38 fish. They cleaned them, put on ice and sent them home with us. Great job and we will be back for more!

We was on the fish as soon as the bait stopped. We was pulling the fish in on all sides of the boat. Some fish was big and some was small. We even caught an eel! The was the highlight of the trip. Awesome day on the water. Can’t wait to go back ! Thanks for all the good memories!

Thank you, Kerry. It was a pleasure taking you and your family out. I hate the weather didn’t cooperate to get your daughter and son-in-law out. Hopefully we will have a better window next year. Thanks again and look forward to seeing y’all again

Captain Brandon and his mate kept us busy for our entire trip. It didn’t take long for us to snag our first fish once the first line was in the water. By the time we got our fish off the hook the other three lines in the water were hitting. My wife and I had a great time out on a perfect weather day and an ocean that was as flat as could be. I look forward to heading down to Carolina Beach again and fishing with Captain Brandon.
