Carolina Beach 6-Hour Fishing Charter | Fired Up

Reel in the Action: 6-Hour Carolina Beach Fishing

Ready to get your lines wet in some of Carolina Beach's most productive waters? Our 6-hour charter puts you right where the fish are biting. We're talking non-stop action with some of the coast's most sought-after species. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just getting your sea legs, our crew's got the know-how to put you on fish and make sure you're having a blast doing it.

What to Expect on the Water

As soon as we push off from the dock, you'll feel the excitement build. We'll cruise out to prime fishing grounds where Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel, Bluefish, and Bonito are known to hang out. Our captain knows these waters like the back of their hand, so we'll be hitting the hotspots where the fish are schooling. We use live bait tactics to really get the fish fired up – it's a game-changer when it comes to hooking into the big ones. And don't worry about gear; we've got you covered with top-notch rods, reels, and bait. Just bring some snacks, drinks, and a good attitude, and we'll take care of the rest.

Rigging Up for Success

On this trip, we're all about live bait fishing. It's the go-to method for targeting the heavy hitters in these parts. We'll show you how to rig your lines for maximum effectiveness – whether we're slow-trolling for Kings or sight-casting to surface-feeding Spanish. You'll learn the ins and outs of using live bait, from hooking it just right to presenting it in a way that drives fish wild. We might even break out some light tackle if the Bluefish are busting bait on the surface. It's hands-on learning that'll up your fishing game, guaranteed.

Species You'll Want to Hook

King Mackerel, or "Kings" as we call 'em, are the prize catch on many of our trips. These smokers can hit 50 pounds or more, and when they take off on a run, hold on tight! They're most active here from late spring through fall, and they love to chase live bait. Kings are known for their blistering runs and acrobatic jumps – landing one of these bad boys will definitely be the highlight of your day.

Atlantic Bonito might not be the biggest fish in the sea, but pound-for-pound, they're some of the hardest fighters you'll tangle with. These cousins of the tuna family show up in our waters in the spring, usually April to May. They travel in schools and when you find them, it's often non-stop action. Bonito are fast, strong, and will test your light tackle skills to the max.

Greater Amberjack, or "reef donkeys" as some anglers call them, are brutes. These powerful fish hang around structure and will give you an arm-burning fight. They're here year-round but really fire up in the warmer months. Hooking into an AJ is like trying to stop a freight train – they'll head straight back to the bottom and make you work for every inch of line.

Atlantic Mackerel, also known as Boston Mackerel, are smaller than their Spanish and King cousins but make up for it in numbers. These guys show up in huge schools, usually in the cooler months. When you find a school, it's often fish after fish. They're great eating and perfect for anglers of all skill levels.

Great Barracuda might look scary with those razor-sharp teeth, but they're a blast to catch. These toothy predators are here in the warmer months and love to chase fast-moving baits. Cudas are known for their incredible speed and acrobatic leaps when hooked. Just be careful when you're bringing them in – those teeth are no joke!
