Had a great time!ย Typical Hatteras weather in the fall.ย Booked two (2) days.ย Fished the first day, but got blown out the second.ย Went with my wife and daughters who enjoy offshore fishing.ย As was feared, my wife became sick three (3) hours after we began fishing and I had the captain bring us in shortly thereafter.ย In the 3 plus hours we fished we had a nice haul of 15 blackfin tuna to 20+ lbs and a pair of Wahoo in the 25-30 lb class.ย Other boats fishing the full day had significantly less fish than what wecaught in our limited time or had a similar amount but the fish were smaller.ย The natural baits trolled by the mate of Harperโs Folly were the difference in our success as others boats relied on artificial lures with more limited success.
The Captain and crew were welcoming and helpful.ย The boat had plenty of seating.ย I would recommend this charter to anyone heading to Hatteras to fish the Gulf Stream.ย I look forward to using them again this spring when I return to fish with a group of childhood friends.

The day started slow looking for Wahoo and Mahi-mahi. Neither were out, and none of the other boats in the area were finding any either. Sean was relentless with finding us fish, and pulled through. Close to the end of the trip, he placed us over a school of black fin tuna. Out of no where, all the rods were full and everyone had a blast! I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for off shore fishing.
No tuna, slow bite.ย We caught some fish for dinner though!ย Very fun and professional.ย Thanks Shaun!
First mate grant was awesome! He really worked his butt off! Boat was gorgeousโฆ.equipment was top notchโฆon a day where many werent catching captain shaun did a great job of finding us fish to catch and have fun! Highly recommend! We will def be back!
We had a great experience with Cap. Dunn. He was pretty certain it was going to be slow and gave us multiple options to start the day. We decided to stick with our first option and he did all he could to put us on the fish. For as slow as it was we didnโt come back empty handed and had a great experience including our first blue marlin hook up!! Will certainly will be booking again!!
