Check out our Dolphin tours, we've been seeing lots of activity on our Safari tours!
Tropical Storm Chris Isn't All Bad
Anglers today benefited from Chris churning up the waters. A couple of our In-Shore boats sailed both trips today and enjoyed some great fishing. Anglers pulled in red drum, grey trout, croaker. spot, striper, and some nice keeper flounder.
Anglers aboard the Miss Oregon Inlet on both trips today were deep into the bluefish and some nice sizes coming over the rails. Other catches were croaker, spot, flounder, trout, sea mullet, and puffers. Tickets are available for Wednesday afternoon, Thursday and Friday both trips, and Saturday morning. Advanced purchase is strongly recommended and tickets can be ordered online, by phone, or here in person at the booking desk.
We're so hopeful to get our off-shore boats out tomorrow along with more of the near-shore boats.
Conditions look good to get the Safari Dolphin Cruise out on all trips tomorrow. Purchase your tickets online or by phone 1-800-272-5199. Following the activity in the sound today, we should see some good dolphin activity. Come on aboard!!
Sometimes It Pays To Be Sneaky
There are those that enjoy wetting a hook on a calm day and then there are those who just have to fish no matter the weather. We had the latter today! Our anglers and captains definitely have some intestinal fortitude and it paid off. Anglers aboard the Sneaky enjoyed some excellent bottom fishing thsis afternoon and locked into some good spots with some nice red drum. We've got a few more anglers intent on fishing on Tuesday regardless of Tropical Chris's churn.
It's always a great time to come down to the Oregon Inlet Fishing Center. Give us a call 1-800-272-5199 and let's talk about your next trip out.
We have good ticket availability on both Miss Oregon Inlet Headboat Fishing and on the Safari Dolphin Watching Cruises. Advance purchase is recommended and both offer the best group discounts on the beach!

PROUD MOMENTS
The youth of today are key for ensuring fishing tomorrow! We'd like to congratulate Team Gaddy of Qualifier Charters for their big win in the 2018 Hatteras Marlin Tournament! Team Gaddy consisting of 10 year old anglers, Brown and Charles Gaddy, took top honors in the 2018 tournament. Charles Gaddy took Top Youth angler honors as well as Top Male Angler. Brown Gaddy placed in the top 3 of the meatfish category with his 23.4 lb mahi. An impressive win for both boys and we're proud they're a part of Oregon Inlet Fishing Center!! Awesome work!

Sunday Suppers
What a gorgeous day on the Outer Banks and a wonderful parade at the docks today! Near-Shore anglers were catching good numbers of nice-sized spanish macs and a few bluefish. Definitely some tasty meals happening! In-Shore anglers had some good fishing as well, good enough so that a few anglers extended their morning trips to enjoy just a little bit more fishing!! Hookups of spinner sharks entertained some excited kiddos!
Anglers Off-Shore enjoyed another day of remarkable yellow-fin catches, with several trophy citations earned. It was also another great day for big-eye tuna and a few mahi, as well as a wahoo or two! There were also a few billfish released today!
