Will Newman

Member since October 2022 Mooresville, United States
Background
I'm Captain Will Newman. I grew up fishing the Wilmington coast and feel lucky to call the Onslow Bay waters home. As a kid, my dad and I would spend countless hours fishing for Red Drum and Flounder in the sound. Over time, I developed a fascination with offshore fishing. This fascination turned into an obsession after I caught my first Mahi. Since then, I knew this is what I wanted to do in my life. My dream became a reality when I obtained my USCG Captain License and founded Onslow Bay Guide Services. I aim to share my passion and fishing expertise with all my guests, regardless of their fishing level!
Techniques
I enjoy using light tackle with artificial lures on inshore and freshwater trips.
