Captain Lee took us to a spot where tons of dolphins were playing. One even jumped fully out of the water multiple times.

I have been on this boat twice and generally had a good experience. The captain and mate are very…read moreknowledgeable and helpful and in both trips we caught a lot of fish. My only issue has come up twice and after a little research I have decided that it is worth mentioning. On both trips, after the fish were laid out on the dock, the mate took fish and put them back on the boat. On both occasions, he carefully inspected the fish to ensure that he took some of the best. This was done after we tipped him very well and without asking the people that paid for the charter if this was ok. I checked around and found that this is not a common practice and folks were pretty shocked about hearing of it. I didn't want to make a scene at the time as there were a lot of people on the dock looking at the boats as they returned with their catch. Again, overall a good experience, but it ended in a way that left us feeling like were had been taken advantage of. Not sure if we will go with these guys again with so many other options.

Went for tuna with 5 from our family. Turned into a long day of trolling. We were hoping for more…read moreactual "fishing" since there was very little to do but periodically reel in heavy buoys and drag gear when the captain said a fish was finally on one of the hooks attached to all the gear. That gave us no "feel" for fishing or the fight when catching a fish. In fairness, the Captain did all he could to find tuna, with several being caught - that was ok. The mate meanwhile was quite a challenge, bordering on rude and insolent to all of us. Because of that, would not recommend.

We had an incredible day fishing offshore on the Citation with Captain Gerrad & his mate. Captain…read moreGerrad's communication was excellent from start to finish, keeping us informed and putting us right on the fish. His mate was an absolute hustler on deck & worked non-stop to keep lines in the water and make sure everyone was taken care of. The boat itself is beautiful and outfitted with top-notch gear. What really stood out was the comfort: a spacious, air-conditioned indoor cabin with plenty of cushioned seating to cool off between bites, plus clean bathrooms onboard. It's got everything you need for a comfortable full day trip offshore. Highly recommend booking the Citation for your next offshore trip. You will not be disappointed!

Captain Will is super responsive, attentive,, and prepared. He knows all the best spots to fish. We released most of what we caught and kept a few catfish. There is a fish house at the dock to clean and filet your catch and also put it in a bag of ice. There is a restaurant on site that is open early and has yummy breakfasts. We will definitely visit again and fish with Captain Will. Make your reservations in advance because Reel Thang books up quick -- I was lucky to get a spot when I did!

Repeat customer! Done whole and half days with him. Sent my whole family out with him (he can…read morehost 4 passengers). Cpt Donnie is a great guide. All the rods were ready to go as soon as we got out there. He again did a great job putting us on the fish. (We just want to catch, not picky with what we're catching!). His boat rides smooth and he does a good job of keeping it as still as possible when fishing. (Meaning, it doesn't require a lot of balance to stand and fish and move about the boat - the sides are high enough that you don't have to worry about falling off. One of my children has balance issues, so this is a real plus for us.) another one of my kids gets motion sickness easily, but has never had a problem on his boat. My third kid has ADHD and is super hyper, and Cpt. Donnie was great with him (never lost his patience and even seemed to entertain him.) He's taken us around Oregon inlet and behind bodie island lighthouse. Scenery is a beautiful as the experience is fun. Dolphins are always spotted - we generally go in mid-October during our annual obx vacation. We look forward to going out with him again next year. Would definitely recommend.

No matter if it's fishing in the sound, near shore or slightly offshore this guy is knowledgable on navigating the local waters and catching fish. He is that guide that will explain why "we" are fishing a certain way using a certain technique. If you want to learn how to catch numerous species of fish depending on the time of the year as well as learn about the water and weather patterns and overall become a better angler, book a trip. You won't be disappointed.
