NC Light Tackle FIshing
Whether you’re an experienced light tackle angler or not we can build a game plan around you! I typically use soft plastics and hard plastic year-round. For my more avid fishermen/women I'll be putting a topwater in your hand first thing in the morning. Watching redfish or speckled trout coming up to hit a topwater plug on the surface will bring your excitement level through the roof. Then have the opportunity to pole flats sight casting redfish, speckled trout, and flounder. We can even get bluefish, jack crevalles and sharks come into some flats. Giving us an opportunity to catch them. If you aren’t an avid angler I can create a plan to make you successful with live or dead bait. Sitting on docks, certain areas in flats or channels looking for bites.
Half-Day, Full Day or Everyday!

Meet the MAV
Maverick HPX Tunnel
The tunnel is one shallow running/poling skiff. A perfect tool for the craft. Whether that be for running open flats to stalking redfish in the shallows. The tunnel will draft six inches or less depending on the load. Also, has a very wide deck and gunnels which is perfect for anglers throwing flies, artificial lures or live bait. The boat is made to work and the multiversity of this skiff truly shows it.

Yamaha 60 HP Outboard

FAQ

Captain Ethan will provide all rods and reels ice and bottled waters, lures, flies, bait, fishing licenses, and awesome photos of the day’s catch. Anglers can bring their own equipment but just give Capt. E a heads up so room can be made.
What to bring:
Bring sunscreen ( no spray sunscreen due to it getting on the boat and making it a slip hazard and stain the boat) Polarized sunglasses, non-scuffing shoes, hat, appropriate clothing (rain gear if needed and UV protective shirts).
