Captain
Patrick Heretick

Member since October 2016 Manteo, United States
Background
Captain Patrick Heretick is nautical by nature. He spent summers and weekends during his formative years on the Chesapeake Bay, learning the ins and outs of fishing and instilling a great passion within him. Patrick has a degree in Marine Technology and has had his offshore Masters Six Pack Captain's license issued by the United States Coast Guard for over ten years. He possesses in-depth experience as a professional off shore fisherman and spends his time fishing the marsh waters and inlets of the Outer Banks - where he's lived for over a decade. Patrick has dedicated his life to the water and is well known for his angling abilities and profound knowledge. There is no one better suited to guide you among these beautiful waters and cater to your specific fishing desires.
Techniques
An ocean trip would consist of casting and sight fishing. In the sound or inlet I typically cast jig heads and artificial baits in the grass flats. In the channels and sloughs I prefer using live bait.
