    Awesome Trip!

    For Aaron • 6 adults

    Our trip with Capt Andrew was great. His communication before the trip was excellent. He recommended going out in the ocean vs inshore based on recent success. He was very knowledgable and easy going. Genuinly wanted us to catch fish and tried many different areas and methods. We eneded up catching a few and overall had a great time. Highly recommend!

    Response from Captain

    Thank you sir. No lack of trying today, hope to see you and the boys again! Really enjoyed it!

    One my best days fishing

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore Fishing (AM) • 3 adults

    Andrew was great. He put together a father and son trip we both remember forever. Very informative, learned a lot, and fished for different fish doing different styles. My son even bird’s nested the reel and he acted as if it was no big deal and patiently fixed it, most importantly, he didn’t make my son feel bad. I will be booking with him in the future.

    Reported catch:
    Black Seabass
    Sheepshead
    Speckled Trout
    Black Drum

    Successful Day…

    6 Hour Trip Inshore fishing (AM) • 2 adults

    Captain Andrew was great! He was knowledgeable, helpful, and pleasant. The boat was perfect for the type of fishing we were doing and the 150 Hp Yamaha performed well. My wife and I caught 7 Blues, 3 Sheep’shead, and 1 Spanish mackerel, and lots of rock bass we returned to the water. Andrew cleaned and bagged our catch at the finish of our day. We didn’t catch a lot of fish or any big fish, but he did everything possible to put us on fish! It is called fishing, not catching- right?😊

    Reported catch:
    Black Seabass
    Bluefish (Tailor)
    Spanish Mackerel
    Sheepshead

    Half Day Trip with Captain Andrew

    6 Hour Trip Inshore fishing (AM)

    Full Disclosure - Captain Andrew is my son. Andrew has been an avid fisherman ever since he learned to walk. Other than the four years when he played D-1 Football in college he has been on their water every chance he gets. You would be hard pressed to find someone with more varied experience. Geographically he has fished in the Bahamas, in the Gulf of America and inshore and offshore North Carolina from Swansboro to Manteo. He knows how to target every species of fish and he knows what is running. He loves seeing the enjoyment his clients get out of reeling in fish and they normally return to the dock with a cooler full. I have fished with other guides and they were good too but I never had the success that I have had with Captain Andrew. He is in high demand so if you see a date agreeable to your schedule book it before someone else does. Suggestion - ask about his night trips. Few guides do those but Andrew does them and night time fishing is frequently some of the best fishing.

    Reported catch:
    Speckled Trout
    Black Drum
    Flounder
    Spanish Mackerel

What's biting with Reel Addiction Charters in Morehead City

It's still a great time to be going offshore after Marlin. Areas like the Swansboro Hole and Big Rock should be your main targets during late fall.

Quick Limit of Flounder in an Hour

Sep 2, 2026 • Morehead City
There weren’t really any pictures to take from this flounder trip with my brother and I unfortunately. Culled through our limit with two really nice fish in about an hour and back to the ramp. Come take advantage of the short window with these heavily depleted exotic species! It is weird whenever I fish for these they don’t seem that depleted!

Limit of Triggerfish, Short Day Trip

Aug 19, 2026 • Morehead City
Well while my boat is getting finished up in the shop we had a pretty day out there on my buddies boat (somewhat) and went out there doing some grocery shopping. Plan was to leave early limit on triggers as quick as we could, and mess around with some deep water fish. Felt naked out there without a trolling motor but they were snapping good enough to make short work of them today 2-3-4 at a time. Unfortunately since the wind was not doing quite what they said we just limited on triggers and got back around 2. Short day with some good eats!

Kids' First Old Drum on a Calm Night

Aug 12, 2026 • Morehead City
How the night started vs how it ended… blew a bearing in the trailer an hour and some change before my charter was supposed to show up on the way to the ramp from getting bait. Wasn’t a red hot bite, but these kids caught their first Old drum on a pretty night!

Half day fun!

Apr 10, 2026 • Morehead City
Pretty Half day trip today. Probably caught about 25 gray trout and a handful of bluefish before moving on to find some sheepshead/black drum. Fishing is starting to get good, very excited for this warm weather to push the fish in some fun to target places!
