Behind The Island Charters

Spend the day with Behind The Island Charters and let them show you what makes the fishing in Oak Island so memorable! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Matt knows them forwards and back.

These waters are known for Black Drum, Flounder, Redfish, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, and more – with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some. During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Snacks are also a good idea so that everyone stays happy and energized!

You'll be fishing aboard a 24' Triton bay boat with space for 6 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Bottled water will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks included on board.
