Great day fishing!

4 Hour Nearshore Trip (AM)2 adults

Captain Robbie and Kyle the mate gave us a great day on the water. My 14 year old son had a great time reeling in Spanish Mackerel and a few bluefish. Both the Captain and mate were very knowledgeable and made us feel right at home! The Whipsaw is a beautiful boat and large enough to feel safe throughout the charter. We did a half day morning charter which is 4 hours and plenty of time fishing. I highly recommend this charter and will definitely book again on the Whipsaw!

    Fantastic Time!

    4 Hour Nearshore Trip (AM)5 adults

    This trip was a borthday event for my brother and the Captain and 1st Maye were awesome. The weather did not look promisng but they got is on some bonito, blues and mackeral. All 5 of us landed multiple fish. The crew was lively, frinedly and professional. A storm was heading towards us and the Captain kept us informed of the changing conditions and kept everyone safe. This was my brothers 1st time saltwater fishing and my 3rd and it was perfect for both. i highly recommend this boat and crew and would absolutely book them again without hesitation! Thanks again for a wonderful time and the memories!

    great boat, great crew, great fishing

    4 Hour Nearshore Trip (AM)4 adults

    Three of us in our 30's,50's,80's went ona 4hr. We had poles in the water for about 3 hrs as we trolled north and south a couple miles outside Wrighstville beach. we hit several schools of spanish mackeral and reeled in more then 30. Cruising out of the ICW as the sunrise began was a spectacular site and a great start to a awesome morning. highly recommend.

    Great fishing fun!

    4 Hour Nearshore Trip (AM)2 adults

    Morning charter from 6 am-10am. The Whipsaw is a beautiful classic fishing machine! The Captain and mate are experts at what they do and had us on the fish early and for the whole trip….we caught a TON of Spanish mackerel. We were hooked up almost constantly and sometimes 2 at a time! My 16 year old son had a blast! Highly recommended!1
