If fishing in Carolina Beach is on your bucket list, look no further than Live-N-Good Charters. With Captain Jacob at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Redfish, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Striped Bass, Bluefish, and whatever else is biting. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light tackle.

Capt. Jacob welcomes children aboard, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Also remember to bring snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

Your vessel for the day is a 20' KenCraft skiff that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has all the essentials. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it.

A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. Time to make it happen, with Live-N-Good Charters!

    An Amazing Fishing trip

    4 Hour Trip on August 19, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had an absolutely wonderful time fishing with Captain Jacob. Captain Jacob was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure we had a great time from start to finish. We caught a Spanish mackerel ,a few Blue fish ,a couple of lizzard fish and a hound fish making it a trip we won’t soon forget! If you’re looking for a great fishing charter, a captain who knows what he’s doing, and a fun time out on the water, we highly recommend Captain Live-N-Good 🎣🐟 We had a fantastic time and can’t wait to go fishing with Captain Jacob again! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Experience we will never forget!

    2 Hour Trip – Fun Fishing on June 26, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 children

    Captain Jacob was absolutely amazing! He was super patient with us, kept in constant communication before our trip, and worked around our schedule, which we really appreciated. He showed us around the area and shared so much knowledge about all the different fish we caught. I went with my son and his friend, and they both had an experience they'll never forget. Captain Jacob made the trip fun, exciting, and memorable from start to finish. We highly recommend booking a trip with him and can't wait to come back!

    Good time

    4 Hour Trip on August 6, 2026 • 4 adults

    Captain Jake was early , courteous and ready to go when we got there. He was extremely friendly and dun to meet. We went out to catch bait and git the spots. As fishing is, we didnt catch a lot but some , thats fishing. Captain Jake tried very hard and many spots to put us on them but the bite wasn't there today. Overall a great , fun time beautiful scenery. I would definitely go back out with him and definitely recommend this charter.

Great trip!
2 Hour Trip – Fun Fishing on July 5, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

Captain Jake and his crew were awesome. They were very flexible and accommodating and they showed us a really good time, especially for my 7 year old. The conditions weren’t the best that day but we were still able to catch quite a few fish, including a flounder and a baby shark! We would definitely recommend Captain Jake.
