What types of fishing trips does Ocean Stinger Charters offer?
Ocean Stinger Charters offers inshore, nearshore, and offshore fishing trips. Whether you’re looking to reel in red drum in the calm waterways or chase mahi-mahi and tuna in deeper waters, we’ve got a trip for every angler. Custom trips and family-friendly options are also available.
What’s included in a charter fishing trip?
All charters include a licensed captain, top-quality rods and reels, bait, tackle, and fishing licenses for everyone on board. We also provide coolers with ice for your catch. Just bring your personal items and we’ll take care of the rest.
What should I bring on my fishing charter?
We recommend bringing sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, weather-appropriate clothing, snacks, drinks, and a camera. You’re welcome to bring your own cooler for food and beverages, and don’t forget any necessary medications. We’ll handle the gear, bait, and licenses.
When is the best time to go fishing in Wrightsville Beach?
Fishing is great year-round in Wrightsville Beach, but peak seasons vary by species. Spring and summer are ideal for king mackerel, mahi-mahi, and cobia, while fall offers excellent action for redfish and speckled trout. Winter months are slower but still produce inshore bites.
Do I need a fishing license?
Nope! When you book with Ocean Stinger Charters, your fishing license is covered under our commercial charter permit. You won’t need to purchase anything extra—just show up ready to fish.
Can beginners or kids join a fishing trip?
Absolutely! We welcome anglers of all experience levels, including kids and first-timers. Our captain and crew are great with beginners and will guide you through every step. We even offer shorter, more relaxed trips that are perfect for families.
How many people can go on a charter?
Ocean Stinger Charters can accommodate up to 6 passengers per trip, depending on the boat and the type of fishing you choose. We keep groups small to ensure everyone has plenty of space and personalized attention.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Safety is always our top priority. If the weather doesn’t allow us to head out, we’ll do our best to reschedule your trip or provide a full refund. We monitor forecasts closely and stay in touch with you before your charter.
Can we keep the fish we catch?
Yes, most of the fish you catch can be kept, depending on current size and bag limits set by North Carolina law. We’ll help you clean and bag your catch so it’s ready for the cooler—or the grill.
