Here’s what anglers are saying about their trips with Wild Rover III Charters based in Carolina Beach, NC
“GREAT! Nicest man I ever met, as well as the helper great job tremendous amount of fish we all had a great time and great help highly recommended!”
Ebraheem Barakat“We had a great time with Captain Dave and Tyler. We went out with our 2 young boys when the weather was questionable but Captain Dave and Tyler worked hard to make sure we still had a great time and caught fish! My two kids had a great time! Also, the boat is fantastic. It has a completely enclosed area with A/C, which ended up being important for us with the rain and one person who was sea sick. I highly recommend this charter!”
Lindsay Lapham“We had a great time on our 5 hour trip. Captain Dave Tilley & Adam were very welcoming and made sure we had a great time. We caught 31 Spanish on our trip & couldn't of asked for a better time. Can't wait to book another trip and highly recommend if looking to catch fish and have a fun trip!”
