My group book me for a sound fishing trip and put six adults. After I confirmed the booking I sent message back and said just so we are completely understood my sound trip are mainly a kids trip. This is a trip that after the trolling part we go and bottom fish and although we might catch 150 fish you might keep six. He sent message back totally understand and it sounds great I said all right. The group got to vote wonderful people and I told them that it was going to be a absolutely gorgeous day with a 15 mile an hour Southwest wind in the sound it creates a one foot wave but there's plenty of Breeze on a hot July day. After no bites on the trolling part I really felt bad for them but they voted to go ahead and go bottom fishing so we did we pick up we ran into my spot with the outgoing turn it took us away from the edge so for the first 30 minutes everybody was staying in there not catching anything and I really felt bad so I got my mate to pull the anchor we moved over 10 ft into the channel and within 3 minutes of dropping a line in the first fish was called and it was Non-Stop the next two and a half hours. During this time I saw college girls that thought debate was yucky turn into beating their own hook then got to the stage of taking their own fish off the hook and then become from drop down casters to being able to cast. All in all doing all of this the father turned around and look at me and said see I told you it didn't matter and I smiled. Then I look around and I saw three daughters a son a father and a mother standing shoulder to shoulder for two and a half hours no TV no phones no stereo no headphones no distractions in a family bonding well by all means I consider that better than a catching a yellowfin tuna you don't have enough of that nowadays. All in all after 150 fish we might have had seven or eight on the DOT you'll be able to have a small serving of fish tacos tonight and laugh about all the pictures that I took of them but the main thing is they call a memory that will last forever from the captain of the fishing Taxi God bless and tight lines!

We spent a lot of time trying to catch fish on our own with not a lot of luck. If you want to make it easy on yourself, book with Tom for a great trip.

Temper expectations when fishing on a charter. So many variables affect how good the fishing is. Wrong wind or water temp will stop the bite overnight.

We drove down to the marina the day before so we knew exactly where we were going. His boat wasn't there of course but he gave us a pretty good description of where his slip was. We were staying in OBX for the week so we could do that. If you are wondering about cleaning your fish, they have a fish cleaning service right there so you don't have to do it yourself if you don't want.

We would have liked to catch a few more species and only got two spanish mackerel in the boat. The bite was light and three got off the hook. Tommy worked super hard to keep us on the fish and I think we got a better catch than you'd be fair to expect.

Take the time to read reviews to find the charters that cater to first-time boaters or anglers. Where you go, when you fish and who you work with matters. A good experience when you do. Hatteras is a beautiful area and island. Will always return.

Head out in the morning before the heat sets in. 6am is early but worth it as the fish start disappearing later in the morning.
