What anglers said about fishing in North Carolina

We booked this trip with our kids, who were first time fishers. They lived the trip and want to know when to go again.

For near shore fishing, this boat was ideal. Had an internal seating area to keep us out of the short rain storm we experienced at sea!

Your targeted species might not be hitting on a given day so be prepared for the Captains to change to different species. We were going for Blues and Black Drum but ended up having to switch to Spanish Makerel.

We had a great time but the fish were not as active on the day we went. Storms were passing through but we still caught some croakers and a baby shark. The kids enjoyed it anyway

Choosing a seasoned captain, like Capt tom- whose family has been on the water of Hatteras for over 200 years was key! Get a Capt who can navigate the shoals and waters, but also getting you on the fish. We have a six-year-old so we did half day starting at noon. Next time we will probably take the early trip and spend a second after the day enjoying the nearby beach.

I've done a couple of inshore trips and they've always been productive. Keep in mind that your captain can't control the fishing, some days are better than others. Also the weather plays a factor on what is bitting.

Check with your captain, and consider booking a longer trip if the big fish are being caught further from shore so that you'll have time to get out there and get 'em!

The half day trip was perfect for our first timers, especially my son who got a little sea sick and had to come back about an hour early.
