Fishing Reports

Trout bite has been insane

Feb 20, 2024 New Bern

Been fishing in a lot of different areas and it remains the same. 30-100 trout everyday all on artificial baits.

1/2 inshore

Jun 21, 2023 New Bern

Great day when the weather man say 100% chance of rain. We stayed dry all morning long while catching some nice fish.

Myers Trip

Jun 19, 2023 New Bern

Fun and challenging morning on some fish with the Myers crew today. We had schools of fish swimming around the boat that just wouldn’t eat. Made some moves and got another school to eat. Lost a few around some structure. Then ended with some nice double ups and singles.

Non-Stop Nearshore Action

May 21, 2023 Cedar Point

We had a great day out on the Spanish bite with Mr. Flip. It was non-stop on Spanish and even managed a nice Bonito as well. We even saw lotf of sharks and dolphins swiming around

1/2 day on trout and reds

May 20, 2023 New Bern

Was a great full day inshore trip. We found a great speckled trout biye and a mixture of slot, overslot and underslot red fish.

Little family fun

May 9, 2023 Cedar Point

We got this family out for a 1/2 morning fishing trip on the Neuse river and it didn’t disappoint. We had nonstop action on bluefish and left them chewing to go and find redfish. We caught a few reds going from under slot to some noce slot soze fish.

4 Hour Trip – am Shark Fishing

Captain Brad did a phenomenal job putting us on shark and managing the chaos of having three of us fishing at one time. It was exciting and at the same time I felt safe - even holding the sharks. He made us all so comfortable, it felt like fishing with a friend! If you’re looking for a great experience - he’s your guy!

Very professional and a blast to be around. Capt Brad had us on fish from the start. We’ve fished with him a few times and every trip has been great. We cannot recommend him enough.
