    Great Freaking Trip

    Mid day 5hr near shore (noon) • 2 adults

    I want to start by saying I left a five star review for Captain Matt last time I fished with him in early June. This trip was no different. He puts you on the fish. Captain Matt listens to what you want and does his best to get it for you. I listen to his recommendations and I take them. This trip we got mahi, kings, Spanish, false albacore, sharks… I can’t remember what else. He cares, he listens and he delivers. Thanks Captain Matt!

    Great Captain

    Half Day Inshore Trip - 11:30 AM • 1 adult

    Captain Matt is excellent and is clearly an expert. professional, knowledgeable, amiable, and skilled. would recommend that if you have the opportunity  to book a charter in OBX, and Captain Matt is available, you select him as captain. I have gone on a plethora of different charters in OBX and Captain Matt is the best. 

    Response from Captain

    John, I very much appreciate your recommendation and review! your sense of adventure is certainly a plus when the seas and winds are high! stay in touch and I'll see you next time, Capt Matt! 😊

    Fun day on the water

    Mid day 5hr near shore (noon) • 3 adults

    We didnt have the greatest day of fishing but Capt. Matt got us on a few Bluefish and Spanish Mack. All 3 of us had a great time and really enjoyed our time on Fish Advisor. The weather was absolutely beautiful and would have had a great time even if we didnt catch anything. Would definitely do this trip again.

    Response from Captain

    Wesley, thanks for a great review! I'm happy you all had a great time and I look forward to that next trip! Till then, Capt Matt

    Captain Matt saves the day

    Mid day 5hr near shore (noon) • 3 adults • 1 child

    After a week of poor weather and surf fishing, we braved the elements with Captain Matt. He had extra rain gear, which was a HUUUUGEEE help. We had a successful day, with 8 Blues reeled in...three more escaped to be caught another day! This made my 10yo son's day. He can't wait to go out on a boat trip again. Captain Matt provided good tunes to keep our soggy spirits up between bites, and was so friendly throughout the trip. Thank you Captain Matt!

    Great Freaking Captain!

    Mid day 5hr near shore (noon) • 2 adults

    Captain Matt is a great captain. He’s accessible and stayed in touch throughout the booking up to the trip. He’ll help you out anyway he can. He pays attention to what you want and tries his best to get it for you. I knew it was going to be rough, but was in a time crunch. He gave me an out, but I went anyway. He handled the boat exceptionally well and got us some fish. In short, he knows what the hell he’s doing and I trust him. Great captain.

    Andrew, I'm speechless! thank you for such a compliment! I appreciate what you've said and your patience with the conditions. OBX weather can be tricky at times however made it easy for me. thanks again, Capt Matt
