Offshore charters
The Gulf Stream is closer here than anywhere else on the coast
Every offshore charter is a private trip aboard Reel Deal with a licensed captain and mate, built around the species running that week, not a fixed itinerary.
Gulf stream marlin and tuna
Blue water forty five minutes from the dock
Hatteras sits closer to the Gulf Stream than almost any other port on the East Coast. Blue and white marlin, yellowfin and bigeye tuna, and the occasional sailfish all show up on the troll before most other ports have even cleared the inlet.
- 10 to 12 hour full day trip
- Trolling ballyhoo and lures
- Up to 6 anglers aboard Reel Deal
Wahoo and mahi mahi
Fast fish, faster action
High speed trolling over the temperature breaks turns up wahoo, and any patch of floating weed line usually holds a school of mahi mahi ready to eat. Good action even on days the marlin bite is slow.
- High speed and standard trolling
- Weed line and color change spotting
- Great table fare to take home
Bottom fishing
Grouper, snapper and sea bass over the wrecks
When the blue water bite is quiet, or you would rather fill a cooler than chase a billfish release, we work the wrecks and live bottom for grouper, snapper and black sea bass. Steady action, easier on anyone still finding their sea legs.
- Half or full day options
- Heavy tackle supplied
- Good backup or add-on to a marlin trip
Multi-day canyon trips
For the anglers chasing a real trophy
Serious groups book Reel Deal for extended runs to the canyons, chasing bigeye tuna and blue marlin further offshore than a single day trip reaches. Captain Wade plans the route and the overnight logistics around your group.
- Overnight and multi-day options
- Extended range fuel and provisions
- Planned around your group's experience
Not sure which trip
Call Captain Wade and describe what you want to catch
Most requests get built into a route on the spot depending on the week's bite, the weather window and how many anglers are aboard. If you would rather see every option side by side first, the fleet page has the full rate card and hourly pricing for all three boats.
- Private charter, never a shared boat
- Rods, reels, bait, ice and fuel included
- Catch cleaned and bagged at the dock
- USCG licensed captain and mate aboard every trip
- Multi-day canyon trips available on request
