Get ready to feel the tug on your line as you cast out into the bountiful waters of the Outer Banks. This 6-hour trip with Outcast Fishing Charters OBX LLC is your ticket to some of the best inshore and nearshore fishing North Carolina has to offer. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just starting out, Captain Lance knows how to put you on the fish and make sure you have a blast doing it.
What's Biting Today?
From the moment you step aboard, you'll be in for a treat. We're talking about the chance to hook into some real bruisers - red drum that'll make your reel sing, cobia that'll test your strength, and a mixed bag of other species that'll keep you guessing. The beauty of fishing the OBX is that every day brings a new opportunity. Depending on the conditions, we might be chasing speckled trout in the grassy shallows or dropping lines for black seabass over nearshore reefs. Captain Lance reads the water like a book, adjusting our game plan to give you the best shot at a cooler full of fish.
Techniques That Land the Big Ones
On this trip, you'll get to try your hand at a variety of fishing methods. We might start off jigging for flounder, then switch to live bait for those trophy reds. If the conditions are right, we could even troll for some Spanish mackerel or bluefish. The name of the game is versatility, and that's what makes fishing the Outer Banks so exciting. You never know what might decide to take your bait next. We provide all the gear you'll need, from light tackle for specks to heavier setups for those bull reds. Just bring your game face and be ready to learn some local tricks of the trade.
Fish Tales from Happy Anglers

The OBX All-Stars
Red Drum: The crown jewel of Outer Banks fishing, these copper-colored beauties can grow to over 50 pounds. They're known for their powerful runs and are a blast to catch on light tackle. Fall is prime time for the big bulls, but you can find smaller "puppy drum" year-round in the sounds and inlets.
Sheepshead: Don't let their goofy grin fool you - these striped bandits are some of the wiliest fish in the sea. They love structure and have a knack for stealing bait. Landing a big sheepshead is a real feather in any angler's cap. Look for them around pilings and oyster beds from spring through fall.
Spanish Mackerel: These speedsters are the perfect target when the water warms up. They're fast, they're flashy, and they're delicious on the grill. We often find them chasing bait schools near the inlets and along the beaches. Light tackle and fast retrieves are the ticket to Spanish mackerel success.
Grey Triggerfish: These odd-looking reef dwellers are gaining popularity among anglers for their tenacious fight and tasty fillets. They hang around wrecks and reefs, and you'll need a quick hand to set the hook on their small, tough mouths. Summer and early fall are prime triggerfish time in the OBX.
Greater Amberjack: When you're ready to test your muscle, amberjacks are waiting. These powerful fish are often found around offshore structures and can put up a fight that'll leave your arms burning. They're most active in the warmer months and are a favorite target for jigging enthusiasts.
More Than Just Fish
While we're out there chasing fins and scales, keep your eyes peeled for the other wonders of the Outer Banks. You might spot dolphins playing in our wake, sea turtles coming up for air, or even a majestic bald eagle soaring overhead. The natural beauty of this place is off the charts, and it's all part of the package when you're out on the water with us.
Why Folks Keep Coming Back
It's not just about the fish - though that's a big part of it. Our customers rave about the whole experience. From the moment you meet Captain Lance, you'll feel like you're fishing with an old buddy. He's got a knack for making everyone feel comfortable, whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned pro. And let's be honest, there's nothing quite like the feeling of that first big fish of the day hitting your line. It's the kind of rush that keeps people coming back year after year.
The Nitty-Gritty
This 6-hour trip is perfect for groups of up to 4 people. We provide all the gear, bait, and licenses you'll need. Just bring along some snacks, drinks, and a good attitude. Don't forget the sunscreen and a camera - you're gonna want proof of your catches! We'll decide on the day whether we're fishing inshore, in the inlets, or nearshore, all based on where the fish are biting and what Mother Nature's got in store for us.

Learn more about the species
Greater Amberjack
Greater Amberjack are the bruisers of the offshore world. These powerful fish can top 100 pounds, though 20-40 pounders are more common. You'll find them around wrecks and reefs in deep water, usually 60-240 feet. Spring and fall are prime seasons. Anglers love AJs for their incredible strength - they're known for testing both tackle and angler. Their firm, white meat is good eating too. Live bait like blue runners or speedo mackerel works well, or try large jigs. Here's a tip: when you hook one, get it away from the structure fast. AJs will try to dive back down, and if they make it, you'll likely lose the fish. Be ready for a long, tough fight - these fish don't give up easily.
Grey Triggerfish
Grey Triggerfish are the tough guys of the reef, with leathery skin and powerful jaws. They usually run 2-5 pounds but can reach up to 13. You'll find them around hard bottoms, wrecks, and reefs in 60-300 feet of water. They're most active in warmer months. Anglers love their tenacious fight and tasty white meat. Triggerfish are known for their clever tactics - they'll try to dive back into structure when hooked. For bait, squid or cut fish work well. Here's a pro tip: use a small, strong hook and keep your line tight. These fish have a small mouth and tend to peck at bait, so you need to feel for those subtle bites. Once hooked, reel fast and steady to keep them from ducking back into their hideout.
Redfish
Redfish, or red drum, are a favorite inshore target here. They range from "rat reds" under 18 inches to bull reds over 40 inches. Look for them in shallow flats, around oyster bars, and in the surf. They're year-round residents but really fire up in fall. Anglers love sight-fishing for tailing reds in skinny water. They put up a great fight and make excellent table fare. To catch them, try live bait like mullet or crabs, or artificial lures like gold spoons. Here's a local trick: on calm days, look for their copper-colored backs breaking the surface as they feed. Cast just ahead of them and hold on tight. Redfish often travel in schools, so where there's one, there's likely more.
Sheepshead
Sheepshead are the oddball fish with human-like teeth that love to hang around structure. Most run 2-8 pounds, but the big ones can hit 20. Look for them around docks, bridges, and rocky areas where they munch on barnacles and crustaceans. Spring is prime time as they gather to spawn. Anglers enjoy the challenge of catching these crafty bait-stealers - you've got to be quick on the hookset. Their firm, white meat is delicious too. Here's a local tip: use a small, sharp hook with fiddler crabs or sand fleas. Get your bait right up against pilings or rocks. When you feel that telltale nibble, give it a second, then set the hook hard. Sheepshead are masters at stealing bait, so patience and timing are key.
Spanish Mackerel
Spanish Mackerel are lightning-fast swimmers that'll give your reel a workout. These sleek, silver fish with golden spots typically run 2-4 pounds but can get up to 12. You'll find them in open water near the surface, often in big schools. They're most active in warmer months when they migrate up the coast. Anglers love targeting Spanish Mackerel for their aggressive strikes and acrobatic fights. Plus, they make for some tasty eating. To hook one, try trolling with small, shiny lures or spoons. My go-to trick is to use a light leader - these fish have sharp teeth that can slice through heavier line. Keep an eye out for diving birds, that's often a sign Spanish Mackerel are feeding nearby. Once you find a school, the action can be non-stop.
