I grew up fishing in the Topsail area. Fishing has always been my passion ever since I was young. As a child, getting out on the water with my dad was the best of times. For this reason, I always loved the opportunity to take people out to show them why I love fishing these waters and to just enjoy some time with family and friends.

    Understanding and knowleable Captain

    12 Hour Trip – Gulfstream • 6 adults

    Our fishing day sarted out with 3 fish on, on the first troll. but with two inexperienced customers on board, we had to return to shore because they were very seasick. I do believe the fishing day would have been monumental if we could have stayed. But 4 fish, with probably a combined weight of 200lbs in 1 1/2hrs of actually fishing i won’t complain and will definitely be back and suggest.

    Drew was awesome! He put us on fish and was very helpful with making sure all 5 of us were constantly catching fish. I highly recommend using ABC!

    King Mackerel (Kingfish)
    Got some new kite fishing equipment in, so the mate and I had to go play with it. It has hard to get past all the amberjack at first. But we still found some nice king mackerel and got a nice citation sized Spanish! Definitely can't beat that.

    Got some nice Spanish moving through! Got 2 in the 5 to 7 pound range. We unfortunately lost a nice king mackerel behind the boat. But its prime time to get them on the beach and offshore! Fall fishing does get much better than it is now!

    Fall fishing is here! Nearshore we're seeing some nice Spanish Mackerel and blues, with the cooler water its time for the king mackerel bite to fire off. This time of year we're seeing a alot more wahoo offshore, king mackerel amberjack cobia and more trolling. Bottomfishing is always great! Gulfstream the tuna bite is picking up. Alot of wahoo some billfish still here. And much much more! Great time to get your buddies together and come fishing for the day!

    Sucks flounder season had to past so fast. But got some nice fish to end the season out strong. We got a tone of bait on the beach. With a good Spanish and Bluefish. Offshore bottom fishing has been great. With the water cooling off. Its time for some big king and some nice offshore wahoo! Give us a call and come get you some!

    The bite nearshore and offshore is really picking up. Water temps are cooling off. We're seeing later schools of bait moving through and bigger fish following them around. Some of my favorite time to get off-shore and fill a fish box. Give us a call and come get on some!

Spanish Mackerel, Blues & Kings Offshore

Oct 1, 2026 • Sneads Ferry
Great time to get offshore! We're seeing a tone of bait moving nearshore and offshore! Big Spanish and blues on the beach. King mackerel, barracuda, ajs, and more offshore on the troll and bottomfishing is always a good bet. With the cooler waters moving in its time to get some fishing in!
