Join the Riptide Charters team for a family friendly Outer Banks fishing trip! Captain Randy grew up on the Outer Banks, bringing decades of local knowledge to the helm during every trip. If you came to Wanchese with a particular fish in mind, Captain Randy will put you on it! Though Wanchese is a year round fishery, each species is caught more frequently during different times of the year. Depending on the time of year you plan on fishing with Captain Randy and the Riptide Charters team, you’ll be fishing for Redfish, Seatrout, King Mackerel, Cobia, Seabass, Triggerfish, Bluefish, Black Drum, Flounder, Sheepshead, and more! Captain Randy will help your group identify every catch to ensure it meets local seasonal and sizing requirements. If it’s a legal catch, it’s heading back to the dock with you! Fish filled memories are only a few clicks away… Secure your trip with Captain Randy today!

4 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM)
This was a surprise fishing trip for my grandson who had never been fishing or on a boat. Captain Randy was awesome. He showed my grandson the basics and within 15 minutes of setting up at the first spot, my grandson pulled in a nice Drum. We had a wonderful time an I highly recommend Rip Tide Fishing Charters and Captain Randy.

4 Hour Trip – Shark (AM)
Randy has to be one of the most skilled Captains we have come across in Charter fishing! First of all, we were extremely surprised on his skill in navigating through the Oregon inlet as it is treacherous and takes special timing to even get through the currents. On the way out there, we also noticed how much attention both He and his mate took in caring for us. We came across dolphins, and they took the time to stop and give us this wonderful experience of being so up close to them. I have even been on dolphin tours and never got this close to them. We were able to get all kinds of photos of these dolphins before pressing on. Then comes the best part, the sharks. During this time of year, it is one of the most difficult things to catch due to scarcity of them and not even the season to catch them. He knew I wanted this experience and catered to our every need. They were prepared with a variety of baits and tackle and used various methods to increase our odds of catching them. We managed to get a 3.5-4 footer and was the fight of my life. I was so happy with this, and want to make sure that everyone knows how great Randy and his team are. We are forever grateful for the wonderful memories, and will certainly be back when we are back in the area. Thank you Randy. The Walsh Family **hidden content**

4 Hour Trip – Shark (PM)
My dad has always wanted to go deep sea fishing, but every time he got close, something came up. That all changed last Thursday, and we had an absolute blast! Thank you, We originally booked a shark trip, but the seas were way too rough to be out there, butCaptain Randy & 1st Mate Theresa made sure we had an incredible trip, regardless. They were very knowledgeable about the OBX waters, fish and spots. They were so cool and answered all my dad’s questions. We started off a little rough, but Captain Randy made sure we got some keepers and ate right! Thanks for everything; we will definitely be back!
