Here’s what anglers are saying about their trips with Wild Rover III Charters based in Carolina Beach, NC
“Went for the morning 4 hour charter. 19 fish!!!! Captain Dave knows where to find them and his Mate Grady helped me boat 19 fish!”
sandi goodhue“Captain Dave and first mate Blake gave us a great afternoon of fishing. Caught lots of Spanish mackerel. Blake did a great job cleaning and bagging them after the trip. They did a great job entertaining our 9 year old. He even got to drive the boat. The 9 year-old got to reel in the downriggers because we weren't sure he could reel in the actual poles, which was perfect!”
Austen Williams“This was my first ocean fishing experience and it was amazing! Captain Bob and Nolan were great! We caught so many fish! Definitely will go again!”
