    Fun on the water:

    Half Day Trip - 1:00 PM on July 1, 2026Β β€’Β 5 adultsΒ β€’Β 2 children

    Took my three grandchildren fishing with Capt. Ryan and had a great time. We first caught our bate and then tried to catch bigger fish. Although we didn’t catch much we had a great time trying. Sting rays showed up the last hour and put up a good fight to get them in the boat, the only way you can count the catch we learned! Great day in the OBX.

    Great First Outing for Kids

    Half Day Trip on August 19, 2026Β β€’Β 6 adultsΒ β€’Β 4 children

    My family has been out charter fishing before and we wanted to share the experience with my nephews and their dad. We had a great time catching croaker to start and then spent the rest of the time catching mullet, blue fish, a red drum, and rays for days! Ryan was great with the kids and all the equipment and boat were great too!

    Lots of fun!!

    Half Day Trip on June 11, 2026Β β€’Β 4 adults

    Captain Ryan was a whole vibe. Not only was he knowledgeable, he was funny. 3 out of 4 caught stingrays…1 person in the group had 2 fish but the line broke both times and the fish got away. We would definitely book this fishing trip again in the future.

    We caught a 44 inch red drum!! And like 3 more a little smaller than that, lots of sting rays, and some crabs! It was an amazing trip and my kids will never forget it. Our second time fishing with them and it’s always a blast.

    Did a 6-hour trip with my 14-year old daughter. We did some dolphin watching and then went to a fishing spot. She caught two 34-inch red drums! And a couple of stingrays. Captain Ryan was very friendly and knowledgeable.
