Member since May 2017 Nags Head, United States
Background
Captain Devin grew up fishing the Outer Banks of NC. He has also fished professionally all over the world, Africa, Panama, Costa Rica, Mexico, Bahamas just to name a few places. Since 1993, he's been running inshore trips on his charter boat Poacher out of Oregon Inlet Fishing Center. I've fished my whole life and still get excited from a bite whether it's a Spanish mackerel or a large cobia. I especially enjoy the families I take with small children seeing them running to the rods in a good bite!
Techniques
On half-day trips you have to target what's available, you only have so much time catch fish. On all--day trips you can pick and choose a little more, wreck fish, bottom fish, live-bait, sight cast are all options on all days

Half day

VERIFIED   Half Day Trip (AM) on July 17, 2022
Came with minimum bait and didnโ€™t stay in one place long enough. Caught minimum fish. Not worth the money.

It was not fishing.ย  The poles were cast, watched and we reeled.ย  Waste of time and money.ย  Nothing really caught.
