Here’s what anglers are saying about their trips with Wild Rover III Charters based in Carolina Beach, NC
“If I could give this place 6 stars, just know I would! I came here with my mom and sister to dump my late father's ashes. The captain and his deck hand were very respectful and patient. The captain knows his stuff and crew mate Mike, if you meet him, is simply awesome. If you're thinking about coming here for fishing or something else, just know that there's nothing to think about. This was an experience I'll remember forever! Thank you both!”
Nick Reed“Captain Dave and mate Adam were all about making the fishing fun. It was obvious that they enjoy what they do, are very personable, and know what they are doing. Our 5 hour charter was a blast. All we needed to do was alternate reeling in many nice Spanish mackerels. The Wild Rover III was a comfortable, clean, ocean worthy vessel with all the amenities you need. I intend to rebook with Captain Dave on my next fishing trip.”
Bill Kelley“Absolutely "First Class". We caught fish while the other boats were not. We did a 5 hour trip and will do a longer one next time. Captain Dave and Tyler are "good people" . They call it fishing not catching so if you're on a day when they are not biting you could not be with better people. Fishing was great for us on our vacation July 11, 2018. Thank you Tyler and Thank you Captain Dave. We will be back!!”
