Capt. Charles runs trips out of Manteo aboard a 57' Buddy Cannady. These waters are known for Black Seabass and Sailfish and he will show you how to catch them. With extensive knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!

    Great Captain, Great Crew, Great Fish Tacos!

    Nearshore Mid Day 10:30am-2:30pm • 14 adults • 2 children

    Our group of 11 family members, from young kids to grandparents, had a fantastic trip! The boat was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and the crew was friendly, professional, and worked hard to make sure everyone had a great time. The fishing started out a bit slow, but the captain made the right call and switched us to bottom fishing. That turned out to be a great decision because the action really picked up and everyone was catching fish. The crew was patient, helpful, and great with anglers of all experience levels. The best part was taking our catch home and making delicious fish tacos that night. We made some wonderful family memories and wouldn’t hesitate to book this charter again. Highly recommend!

    Successful family fishing trip

    Nearshore Mid Day 10:30am-2:30pm • 8 adults • 3 children

    Great family fishing experience the captain Charles got us right on the fish first couple minutes the lines went in the water. The deckhand Nate was also great with the kids and very helpful with our kids ( which god bless him they can be a handful). All in all we caught about 30ish fish all together including mackerel, spanish mackerel, blue fish and some jacks. I will absolutely book another trip! as always thanks for a fun filled time

    Reported catch:
    Bluefish (Tailor)
    Spanish Mackerel

    Captain and first mate took great care of our 8 person party. Had children and the one old uncle on board.. lol. Everyone had a great cruise to the fishing grounds and then we nailed some nice sized fish right out the gate. The views were spectacular. Crew did great job handling the kids. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

    We did 4 hour afternoon trip. The captain spotted a school of Mahi and within minutes fish after fish. Caught 66 total. Mates were friendly and extremely helpful and knowledgeable. We were able to get catch cleaned and cooked perfectly at restaurant right in Marina. Exceeded expectations and highly recommend.

    We came for a family vacation and Captain Charles made this fishing trip one less thing to worry about, his communication was great from the moment we booked the trip. The day of the trip we boarded the boat which was clean and spacious. His 2 mates were very respectful and engaging the whole time. Everyone had a great trip, wish we would have booked a longer time. Thanks Captain and Crew!!
