I would try a makeup charter if you want to go offshore and only have 1 or 2 people. Great way to get that experience for a fraction of the cost.

Take something for motion sickness. Even if you don't think you need it, it is not worth taking the chance. Bring a hat!

Plan your trip accordingly. Hatteras seems like it is a long way from Nags Head. There are plenty of good restaurants once you arrive. Tight lines.

Allow yourself a couple of possible days to go fishing. Wind and weather can be unpredictable year-round and it's nice to have another day to go if you get blown out.

Make sure to check your directions for Hatteras harbor. Lots of road construction.

I's on the edge for the start of the season. We caught it just right. Check your lunar cycle!

The weather is the determining factor. But if you can get out there is some really good fishing.

Bring cash for getting fish cleaned at the dock. Guy's a magician with a filet knife.
