Box Full

June 1, 2025

It took us a little longer today, but we were able to fill the box for Chris and his guys! A great catch of Yellowfin Tuna, plenty of meat for dinner and the freezer. It doesn’t get any better than this! We have June 22nd, 25th, 26th, 27th, 29th and 30th open.

Good fishing and getting better

Miss kaley

June 1, 2025

We had some tough fishing conditions today. The weatherman was incorrect in the seas were a lot rougher than predicted. Miss Kaley did a great job and we had a blast with her caught some Spanish and blue fish. Sorry it was so rough today! According to the weather, Mann is supposed to be great tomorrow and the rest of the week. Let’s hope he’s right.

Heading home by breakfast!

May 31, 2025

We gave Frank and his crew the option of a refund today due to unfavorable weather conditions, they said they wanted to give it a try! Lucky for us, the Tuna were hungry! The box was full and we were heading home by 9am!

Fishing is generally great this time of year. We had less than ideal weather and high winds.

Really important to check out conditions to make decisions on weather and wind which can change the movement of the fish. A good Captain like the one we had will find an alternative option. With bad weather it's hit or miss.

Can be hit and miss for number of tuna each season but definitely worth trying if you want to try for big game.

Windy and we really wanted to catch drum or cobia but they are not in abundance in April. We had fun catching blues and cow nose skates.

Salty Charters Dare County

We did not catch any fish, but did get a couple of crabs. We were told the weather (sunny but very windy) contributed to the lack of fish. Still a great time!

Due to its location, Wanchese is a great harbor to start the fishing charter. It's about as close to the Oregon inlet as possible and the Stolat Captain Paul and Mate Paul are first class. They will make you an expert in no time. Expect to be put in a position to do some catching as well as fishing.
