    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Family Fishing Trip!

    Half Day Trip (AM)4(pl) max. • 4 adults • 2 children

    We had an awesome experience with Sounds Good Fishing Charter! We went out as a family with our 12- and 10-year-olds and had a blast trolling for Spanish mackerel. We caught plenty of fish and the kids had a great time. After that, we headed inshore and were able to hook into a red drum, which was a great way to finish the trip. Captain Mike was fantastic—personable, patient, knowledgeable, and especially good with the kids. He made sure everyone was involved and having fun throughout the trip. If you’re looking for a family-friendly fishing charter and want to put some fish in the boat, I’d definitely recommend Sounds Good Fishing Charter. We’ll absolutely go out with Captain Mike again!

    Reported catch:
    Bluefish (Tailor)

    I took my step grandson for his first fishing trip in the sound. We fished with cut bait without success. We then switched to popping corks with soft plastics. My step grandson toyed with one fish for about 10 minutes before it took the bait. We were using light tackle and a great fight ensued resulting in netting a 17” speckled trout. We caught other fish as well, but this one catch made the day! Captain Mike is a great guide for teaching young anglers how to fish. I will be fishing with him again!

    Great capt, great day of fishing

    Half Day Trip (AM)4(pl) max. • 3 adults

    we booked our trip shortly before a storm was on its way in, capt mike called me and gave me the option to cancel my charter because they didnt have much luck the day before, and the weather was making conditions worse. we decided to still go out, we limited out on trout, mike knew where to take us to have a good chance on a bad day and we struck gold. Awesome dude, get out there and fish with Mike!!

    Reported catch:
    Speckled Trout
    Response from Captain

    Awesome trip!

    2hr. Fishing trip 4pl.(max) • 2 adults

    We had a great time with Captain Mike. We caught our bait and moved to catch a big trout, a skater, and a crab. Many bites and he was fun to talk to and knowledgeable. Will go back to him next time we are here.

What's biting with Sounds Good Charters in Wanchese

Change is a-coming as the pelagics start to leave the Gulf Stream. But fear not, monstrous Kingfish are on their way and the inshore season is just around the corner.
