Outer Banks Charter Fishing,Spend A Day Catching Lots Of Fish.

Outer Banks Charter Fishing kicks in high gear during the summer.

The Outer Banks is famed as the billfish capital of the world.Though other fishing destinations debate that point,the Outer Banks waters are home to an incredible number of Billfish,white and blue marlin,and sailfish.

These fighting fish are caught from spring through early fall,peak catches for blue marlin in June,and peak catches for white marlin and sailfish in August and September.

The billfish are almost always released,but you still get bragging rights.If you have visited the Oregon Inlet and watched the boats come in,you will see a lot with their flags up.That is to let you know that they released their fish.

Don,t forget,if you are fishing anywhere on the Outer Banks,or up to three miles offshore you have to have a fishing license.The number to call is 919-662-4370.If you are younger than sixteen you are exempt from buying a license.Also July fourth is a free fishing day in North Carolina.

a charter boat with its catch Next to billfish,some of the most pursued Gulf Stream fish are like some to the right.They are bigeye tuna,blackfin tuna,dolphinfish,king mackeral,wahoo,and mayo shark.(Back home I settle for little perch).

They always have heavy catches when they come in.(The price of fish now days will offset the cost of the trip).So a Outer Banks Charter Fishing trip will pay for itself.

The International Gamefish Association lists 92 world records for fish caught in Outer Banks waters.A Outer Banks Charter trip sure won,t be dissappointing.

With that many records you would think that variety and size here,draws expert anglers,(not so).The chances of a good catch are enhanced by physical conditions existing here that does not exist anywhere else.

Another factor that hugely influences the catch is the charter fleets.These guys know their stuff.The boats house the complete package of brains,and talent.They have the best captains plus the mates will awe you with their knowledge and skill.

They always provide you with arranging poles,gaffing fish,and much more.The mates are worth their weight in gold.

One more tip,but I am sure you have not forgot.Bring something with you for nausea.It does not bother me,but I know guys that have told me their fishing trip was ruined becaused they were sick all day.

The techniques for catching the fish are explained the day of the trip.You are not left wondering about what to do.

This one I am not sure about,due to the fact of rising fuel prices,but expect to pay $900 to $1500 dollars for a Outer Banks Charter fishing trip.Now this is for six people.And if you do not have that many in your party,they will find someone to fill the gap.Also,expect to pay a little more for a Blue Fin Tuna trip.

Another point of interest,is to check the prices between Oregon Inlet and Hatteras marinas.A Outer Banks Charter Fishing trip tends to be less expensive in Hatteras than it does at the Oregon Inlet.(A dollar in your pocket is better than someone elses).

It takes about two hours to arrive at the gulf stream from Oregon Inlet,while it only takes one and a half hours from Hatteras.Hence,the difference in price.It would take a lot more fuel for an extra hour of driving,with the price of fuel.

One more tip,dress with layers of clothing for a Outer Banks Charter Fishing trip.You can all ways take some clothes off.It will be cool early in the morning.

Marlin Fish In Outer Banks A marlin being released on the right.

Anglers almost always release them,but bluefin tuna weighing 200 to 800 pounds have been caught in these waters.If you are not in pretty good shape they would wear you out.

Boats leave offshore around 5:30am and return no later than 6:00pm. You also have the Pirate,s Cove at the Nags Head Manteo Causeway.Manteo is a world class fishing center.The modern marina will also give you a great Outer Banks Charter Fishing trip.They are also a bit higher on their pricing.

Hatteras would cost you less,and you could find a rental there.I will put the web sites of all three,so you can decide which one will get your business.

Staying at the

Hatteras Landing Marina may put a 'little money' in your pocket.

Also the Oregon Inlet charter fishing fleet is a historic landmark on the Outer Banks.Their site is listed here.The Pirates Cove in Manteo

.

is here. Between these three,one will give you a great Outer Banks Charter Fishing trip.

Below I am going to give you a site from Rick.He has a lot of information on fishing the Outer Banks that may interest you.All of these pages will close and come back to this site.You will not lose it.Thank you for visiting.There is a page on Surf Fishing the Outer Banks.This link will take you to it and when you X off the page you will be back here
