Fishing the Outer Banks of North Carolina? Welcome to Fishy Bizness - specializing in nearshore and inshore fishing of the OBX waters around Manteo, Nags Head, Wanchese, and Oregon Inlet.

Fishy Bizness OBX offers affordable 1/2 day fishing trips - these tend to run 4 hours long; except for the Kids Fishing trip, which we've found that 3 hours is perfect amount for this age group.

Your group of five will fish comfortably in our 23ft. shallow draft center console; completely updated in 2015. This clean and well-maintained vessel is equipped with full sight fishing tower with controls, Garmin side scan sonar GPS, and is powered by 225 HP Evenrude. Captain Frank Riddick is at the helm; and has fished the waters of North Carolina his entire life.

Captain Frank is a seasoned Charter Captain with over 20 years guiding customers to the fish! He works hard on every charter, every time - and has a passion for sharing and teaching fishing techniques to anglers of all ages. Whether on the shallow grass flats behind Oregon Inlet, or the nearshore waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Captain Frank looks forward to guiding your next adventure on the water!

Your group can spend the day fishing for redfish, trout, stripers, bluefish, and other inshore species that inhabit the Outer Banks. All trip prices include all bait, tackle, fishing licenses, iced cooler, and expert advice or comic relief (if needed). We recommend you bring a wide brimmed hat, polarized sunglasses (essential for sight casting), sunscreen, warm clothes, rain gear (depending on weather), non-skid boat shoes, and snacks/drinks to be placed in the onboard cooler. Don't forget to bring your sense of adventure and willingness to have fun!

Fishy Bizness OBX is a private fishing charter - perfect for your next family fishing trip. Captain Frank takes pride in putting customers on trophy fish, while also having a fun, relaxing, inshore fishing experience they'll never forget.

There’s no better way to introduce your kids to fishing than taking them on one of my family friendly fishing charters. The Family with Kids Trip is $400 and 4 hour and can have up to 5 persons on board and we will be fishing the backwaters where the waters are calm and the fish are easy to catch The Outer Banks has an abundance of exciting fishing action for the entire family. Making memories with your children on a family fishing charter is what it’s all about. And when your trip is over, you have pictures to last a lifetime. I have children of my own and they’ve been on the boat literally before they could even walk! They still ask me dad, “when are we going fishing again?

Half Day – Inshore/Nearshore (PM)
My sons and I had the best day with captain Frank! He made it so much fun for my boys. The big water was to rough for shark fishing but he put us on the fish instantly. And when the fish were kinda small he moved us to a new spot. We caught pigs, croaker, pins, sea bass, a sting ray, and some very big sheepshead, and a really nice black drum. We lost count of how many fish. It really was the best day fishing we have ever had. Thank you Captain Frank!

We had a wonderful trip today with Captain Frank. He was an excellent host: highly knowledgeable, flexible and great with our son who is an enthusiastic amateur angler. We caught a lot more fish than we were expecting to thanks to Frank’s expert local knowledge of the area. We will definitely be booking another trip with him next summer! Thank you Captain Frank!
