Chuck Bishop, Guide at Victory Charters

Captain Chuck Bishop, also known as Coach, has been immersed in a diverse array of sports from an early age, demonstrating a natural talent and enthusiasm that has continued throughout his life. His journey into the world of hunting and fishing began early, thanks to his grandfather, who introduced him to these outdoor pursuits. This early exposure fostered a deep appreciation for outdoor activities. As Coach grew older and moved to the coast, he expanded his horizons to include scuba diving and fishing, further enriching his connection to the water.


Living near the coast, Coach was influenced by his neighbor, a seasoned commercial fisherman and charter captain. This relationship not only deepened his love for fishing but also inspired him to obtain his own captain’s license. His experience as a scuba diver has been particularly beneficial, providing him with a detailed understanding of underwater structures and reefs, as well as the diverse marine life that populates these environments. This combination of skills and knowledge has made Coach a highly skilled and knowledgeable guide.


Victory Charters, operated by Coach Bishop, reflects his long-standing dedication to the sport. For over 30 years, Coach has been a respected teacher and coach in the Wilmington area. His passion for the outdoors is evident through his extensive involvement in fishing, hunting, and scuba diving. Now, he has transitioned from teaching to fully embracing his passion for fishing, offering his expertise to those eager to experience the rich fishing grounds off Wrightsville Beach.


Guests aboard Victory Charters will enjoy fishing on a 26’ Maycraft center console, equipped with a 300 HP Yamaha outboard and a closed transom. The boat is designed to offer ample space for comfort, accommodating up to 4 passengers comfortably and up to 6 on nearshore trips. It’s an ideal setup for families and groups of friends looking to enjoy a memorable day on the water. Coach is welcoming of all passengers, including children, ensuring a fun and inclusive experience for everyone.


Each fishing trip with Coach includes everything needed for a successful outing: fishing licenses, rods and reels, bait, and all essential gear. Coach also provides cleaning and filleting services for any fish that guests wish to take home. To ensure a smooth experience, guests are advised to bring snacks, drinks, sunscreen, and polarized sunglasses. So, what are you waiting for? Come and book your adventure now!

I arranged a full-day trip with Victory Charters along with two other captains for our large group. Despite having to reschedule due to weather, all three captains coordinated seamlessly to find a new date, making the process effortless. Managing such a big party can be challenging, but Chuck and the team made it smooth and easy. We had an incredible day fishing, catching several fish, and enjoyed every moment. This was a company outing, and we’re already planning to book with Victory Charters again next year. Thanks for a fantastic experience!

My nephew and I had an amazing day out with Coach, trolling for Spanish Mackerel and Kings. We ended up catching over 30 Spanish Mackerel and even landed a nice Hammerhead Shark at the end!

We discovered Coach on Booker during our vacation from Arizona. My three sons (the oldest is 13 with Down Syndrome) and I had an incredible experience. Coach was fantastic, providing clear instructions and teaching them essential fishing techniques. He patiently answered all of my son’s questions about ADHD with thorough explanations. I couldn’t have asked for a better captain for our group. We caught plenty of mackerel and even received a lesson on cleaning the fish as he filleted them. I highly recommend Victory Charters and Captain Chuck for an exceptional fishing experience. My boys connected with him and talked about him all day.
