Awesome Trip!

Half Day Trip – Private8 adults

Captain Russell and First Mate Mike were very friendly and knowledgeable. They made sure to explain things and answer any and all questions we had. They even took a chance and moved locations to ensure we had the best opportunity to catch shrimp and crab. And boy did we 250 pounds! This was the highlight of our vacation. And great family fun for all ages. If we ever make it back to the Outer Banks from Michigan we would do this charter again! 10/10 would recommend!

    major success

    Half Day Trip – Private - 10:30 AM • 8 adults • 4 children

    captain Dave and Cole were awsome. had 4 grandsons age 7-11 and all caught fish. 29 total. Cole was great explaining how what and why to the kids with everyting he did. and he worked his butt off keepin up with all the fish they were catching. boat is great, smooth ride and roomy. even later in the day when waves started getting large it was great. overall awesome first ocean fish trip for grandsons.

    Fun day

    Full day gulfstream • 8 adults

    The trip was awesome, Captain Dave kept us moving around to get fish in the boat and Cole worked his tail off setting and changing lines. At the end of the trip we 4 gaffer mahi, a shark, black seabass and blueline tilefish. Everyone on the boat had a blast. Despite their beat efforts the tuna weren’t cooperating for us to haul any in, but again we had a blast.

    Reported Catch
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

    Fantastic Trip!!

    Half Day Trip – Shared • 20 adults • 1 child

    Captain Dave and Cole were amazing! we had almost 20 in our party. They kept people safe and bait on the hooks! They knew all of the best spots! We ended up bringing home 59 fish! We were able to clean thr fish right there at the dock and had to them for dinner that night! It was a fun and rewarding experience! Not only would I recommend them and this trip, i would go back out with them again and again when im in the OBX. Definiately consider them if you want to catch some fish!

    Response from Charter operator

    Thank you for the kind words. Dave and Cole really appreciate it.

    Fishingbooker should be ashamed

    Half Day Trip – Private • 8 adults • 2 children

    I didnt get both sides of the story but if half of what I heard is true fishingbooker should be ashamed of blocking this great boat and crew from being booked on their site. I understand guide/customer disputes are difficult but blocking a service this good is a travesty.

    Reported Catch
    Black Seabass
    Gray Triggerfish
    Bluefish (Tailor)
    Response from Charter operator

    Thank you for the great review Leo. Hopefully we will be back online soon. see you next year.
