Captain
TC Smith

Member since October 2022 Carolina Beach, United States
Background
Captain TC grew up commercial fishing in Masonboro Sound, taking every chance he had to be out on the water. He uses mainly light tackle with live bait, except in the winter months when live bait isn't readily available. 'I decided to create an affordable charter to offer a great experience to everyone.'
Techniques
I use mainly light tackle with live bait. In the winter months when live bait isn't readily available we switch to soft plastic and artificial lures.
