Meet the Captain
Captain Billy Baxley
Ocean Isle Fishing Charter
Captain Billy Baxley has a lifelong passion for fishing that began in his childhood. As he learned more about the sport, his enthusiasm grew, leaving him "hooked" on fishing. Over the years, he has enjoyed not only fishing but also sharing his knowledge with others. Ocean Isle is renowned for its stunning scenery and diverse fish species, including king mackerel, Spanish mackerel, sea trout, and more. With Captain Baxley’s extensive experience in these waters, he can provide valuable insights into local fishing conditions. This area is also known for Amberjack, Red Grouper, Gag Grouper, Almaco Jack, African Pompano, King Mackerel, Redfish, Black Seabass, and more—if you’re lucky, you might catch a few!
During your trip, you’ll have the opportunity to try various fishing techniques such as spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, or bottom fishing, depending on the conditions. Families are welcome, and kids will have a fantastic time fishing aboard the charter, which provides life vests for safety. Don’t forget to purchase a local fishing license before your trip, as some species may require special tags or be protected. Be sure to pack essentials like sunglasses, a hat, non-spray sunblock, bottled water, and snacks. Alcohol is permitted in moderation, but please avoid hard liquor or glass bottles.
With everything in place, your unforgettable fishing adventure with Captain Billy Baxley is just a booking away!
