Looking for a top-rated saltwater fishing experience in North Carolina waters? Pamlico Pirate Fishing Charters is offering an exclusive 15% discount on our world-class inshore fishing adventures. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just getting your feet wet, this limited-time deal gets you on the water with expert guides who know exactly where the fish are biting. We're talking prime North Carolina fishing grounds where reds, specs, and flounder stack up in the shallows and around structure. Just pick your date, drop your deposit, and we'll handle the rest – gear, guidance, and getting you hooked up with some serious fish.
Your day starts early when you meet us at the dock, coffee in hand and ready to chase some fins. Our captain will brief you on the game plan based on tides, weather, and what's been hot lately. North Carolina's inshore waters offer some of the most diverse fishing on the East Coast, and we fish them all – from the grass flats where reds cruise looking for crabs to the deeper channels where big specs ambush baitfish. The boat is rigged with quality tackle, fresh bait, and all the gear you need to land whatever we hook into. This isn't some rushed half-day trip – we stay on the water until we've put you on fish or exhausted every spot on the chart. With a max of three anglers, you get plenty of room to fish and personalized attention from our guide.
We run light to medium tackle that's perfect for the inshore game – think 15-20 pound spinning gear that lets you feel every tap and run. Depending on what we're targeting and where we find them, we'll be throwing everything from live shrimp under popping corks to soft plastics worked along the bottom. When the reds are tailing in skinny water, we'll sight-cast with spoons and topwater plugs that'll get your heart pumping when they explode on the surface. For specs holding near structure, we'll drop down with jigs and live bait, working the current breaks where these fish like to set up and feed. The beauty of North Carolina inshore fishing is the variety – one minute you're casting at laid-up reds in two feet of water, the next you're working a deep hole for keeper-size flounder. We carry backup gear for every technique and situation, so whether a fish breaks you off or you want to try something different, we're covered.
Red drum are the crown jewel of North Carolina inshore fishing, and for good reason. These copper-colored bruisers range from schoolie reds in the 18-27 inch slot all the way up to bull reds that'll peel drag like freight trains. Spring through fall is prime time, but we catch them year-round when you know where to look. Reds love shallow grass flats, oyster bars, and creek mouths where they root around for crabs and shrimp. When you hook a good one, expect multiple runs and that distinctive head-shaking fight that makes these fish so addictive to target.
Speckled trout, or "specs" as we call them locally, are another customer favorite that fights way above their weight class. These beautiful fish with their spotted sides and sharp teeth average 15-20 inches, but the big gator trout that push 25+ inches are what dreams are made of. They're most active during the cooler months when they school up around structure and deeper channels. Specs are notorious for their soft mouths, so you need to keep steady pressure without horsing them – many first-timers lose good fish by getting too aggressive on the hookset.
Southern flounder round out the slam of North Carolina's big three inshore species. These ambush predators lie buried in the sand waiting for baitfish to swim by, then explode upward in a cloud of mud and fins. Summer into early fall is peak season when they're moving toward the inlets to spawn. A quality flounder runs 16-20 inches and provides some of the best eating you'll find in saltwater. They're tricky to hook since they often grab bait and swim with it before committing, so patience is key when you feel that telltale tap-tap-tap on the bottom.
This 15% discount won't last long, and neither will the prime dates on our calendar.

Don't sleep on this deal – grab your spot while the discount lasts and get ready to see why North Carolina inshore fishing keeps anglers coming back year after year.
