Great 3 hour trip! Captain Will was great, super knowledgeable. Even with the hot weather and a slow bite Captain was still able to put us on some fish and send us home with a little dinner. Caught some nice keeper Speckled Trout.

We took a 3 hour fishing trip with four kids ranging from 6 to 11 years old. Captain Will was patient and made the kids feel very comfortable. Everyone had a great time and we will definitely use Reel Thang Charters OBX in the future!

Three anglers, ages 11,44, and 74 had a nice day on the Sound with Captain Will. We caught a variety of fish and were able to take some home to eat. We will definitely book another trip with Captain Will in the future.

We had 4 people go for a 6 hour trip. The captain was fantastic. Boat was well equipped and had plenty or tackle and bait. We caught trout, red drum, croaker, and a couple stingrays.
