Great day of catching speckled trout!

3/4 Day Trip3 adults

Captain Ray provided a great day of fishing for my father, brother and I. This trip exceeded our expectations and gave us great insight of topsail with local flair. Ray is very personable and is beyond knowledgeable of the ins and outs of fishing in the area. His tackle was top tier, and the boat was definitely comfortable to be on. We can’t wait to book with him again!

    Fishing with Raymond

    Half Day Trip2 adults

    Great fishing charter! Captain Britt did a fantastic job of putting us on fish we could land in the boat. He was very knowledgeable and hard working. Great with kids too! We had a great time and look forward to going out with him again in the future.

    Come see what a real professional guide looks like…

    3/4 Day Trip2 adults

    Capt Ray is incredibly knowledgeable, courteous and professional. During my two day trip, Capt Ray was able to overcome very tough conditions and not only did he put me on the reds we were able to nail some over slot fish on top water. Not to be out done, he then made a run to the beach side where we able to land a 25lb gag grouper. Highly recommend Spring Tide for experienced and novice fishermen alike. I’ll be going back out with this great guide.
