Artie Phillips

Member since May 2022 Oak Island, United States
Background
I have fished for 40 plus years cutting my teeth fishing bass tournaments. Also have fished salt water during this same time and decided to become a charter captain! Inshore/Nearshore fishing. Specialized in catching Black Drum, Redfish, Flounder, and whatever wants to bite!
Techniques
Like to fish for Black and Red Drums using shrimp or live bait. Flounder fishing is usually done with artificial lures. I troll and sight cast for Spanish Mackerel.
