NC Saltwater Fish
Other Services
Boats are like family, they deserve and require lots of personal attention!
We are at the docks each day and are available to start and run your boat
in your absence. An hour a week goes along way to keeping things running well and preventing developing issues from becoming expensive repairs.
We are also available for east coast deliveries, and local crew services.

Fall fishing is on!! If you enjoy wahoo, now is your time of year. Wahoo are being
caught on our gulf stream trips in good numbers and size. We are also seeing a consistent Sailfish bite.
Bottom fishing trips are producing good numbers of just about everything!
Our nearshore trips have been producing limits of king mackerel. Fall months typically produce a great king mackerel bite.
Little Tunny or False Albacore will also be hitting strong this fall. Give us a call for a trip today!

Fishing tip of the month
Springtime is almost here and with it comes the chores of spring cleaning. Most of us keep some fish in the freezer at all times, and this time of year it tends to be a little on the old side.
At our house this is typically wahoo, because its my favorite! Wahoo freezes pretty well, but when you are used to fresh, a couple months makes it a little less appealing. If you have an extra bag of last season wahoo on freeze, do yourself a favor and give this a try!
