Sea Hag Charter Boat

The Sea Hag is a 46 ft. Buddy Harris powered with a pair of Caterpillar C12's. This boat has the classic Carolina flare for a smooth comfortable ride. Buddy Harris boats are well known for being the ultimate offshore fishing machines made famous for fishing the unpredictable offshore waters off North Carolina's Coast. She is fully rigged with all the latest USCG safety equipment, state-of-the-art electronics and top of the line modern fishing tackle for trolling, bottom fishing or casting for every possible situation. Plus her roomy comfortable salon is perfect for making your charter an enjoyable experience for the entire family.

Please don't make the mistake of booking a small center console open boat based on price alone because you will quickly find out why they are less expensive while your entire family is sitting huddled and crowded on an open boat with no cover from the weather and no private enclosed restroom facilities! (Just a bucket!)

Fishing Charter Types

Half Day Near Shore or Inshore Fishing Charter - 4 hours

These four hour near shore or inshore charters are ideal for vacationing families with young kids as well as folks that just want to enjoy the near shore waters and scenery of the Outer Banks. The sea conditions are always plenty calm in a seaworthy boat like Sea Hag and the educational experiences are as valuable as the fishing success. Methods include trolling and/or bottom fishing for species like spanish mackerel, bluefish, flounder, sea mullet, cobia, drum, and stripper. Charter captain’s choice depending on what is biting.

3/4 Day Near Shore Fishing Charter - 6 hours

A 3/4 day near shore charter is designed for the more adventurous anglers and groups that want to spend a bit more time on the water. This trip includes everything normally done on a half day near shore charter but we venture out a bit further off the coastline to fish for other species like king mackerel and sharks.

3/4 Day intermediate Fishing Charter - 6 hours

Our ¾ Day Intermediate Charters may venture from 3 miles offshore to as far as 20 miles deep sea offshore where we can target species such as mahi, king mackerel, and amberjack. We normally either troll or bottom fish depending on weather and water conditions and what has been catching the fish.

Full Day Intermediate Fishing Charter - 8 hours

Our Full Day Intermediate Charter is designed to go from 3 miles offshore to 20 miles deep sea offshore. But we might go even further offshore depending on the fishing. This charter is mostly trolling, bottom fishing, or deep jigging is also a possibility if the crew wants too. Target species on these trips are mahi, king mackerel, wahoo, sailfish, tuna, and amberjack.
