Carolinas

Carolina Luxury Sportfish Charter Experience

Booking a Carolina luxury sportfish charter with Black Book Charters puts you at the heart of East Coast offshore tradition. The waters off North and South Carolina are rich with history, diversity, and big-game potential. Whether you're launching from Charleston’s historic harbor, heading to the Big Rock out of Morehead City, or running out of Oregon Inlet toward the canyons, the Carolinas offer serious offshore anglers the kind of structure, water movement, and migratory species that make for unforgettable trips—and epic tournament runs.

In Charleston, you’re just a few hours from the Gulf Stream, where blue water meets dramatic ledges and bait-rich rips. Spring through fall, expect strong shots at mahi-mahi, blackfin and yellowfin tuna, sailfish, and wahoo, while deeper drop-offs hold swordfish and bottom species like golden tilefish and grouper. Charleston also has a loyal following of tournament anglers, and we offer tournament-ready sportfish boats equipped for the long run and high stakes.

Farther north, Morehead City and Beaufort are synonymous with world-class billfishing, especially during the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament, where million-dollar payouts are matched only by the electric energy on the docks. These waters are prime habitat for blue marlin, white marlin, and sailfish, and our fleet is fully equipped for long days on the troll with crews who have competed—and won—on these same grounds.

At the top of the Outer Banks, Oregon Inlet gives you direct access to deep, Gulf Stream-fed water, making it one of the most consistent big-game fisheries on the East Coast. Here, Black Book Charters connects you with private, captain-maintained vessels capable of running far and fishing hard. These boats are more than comfortable—they’re precision machines built for offshore success.

Our captains in the Carolinas are seasoned, local pros who have fished these waters for decades. They know how to read the spread, dial in the bite, and work the temperature breaks to give you the best chance at a trophy hookup or a tournament win. Each charter is supported by our concierge-level service—from crew coordination and custom itineraries to tournament entry and dockside provisioning.

If you’re looking for a Morehead City sportfishing charter, a Charleston luxury day trip, or a serious Oregon Inlet offshore campaign, Black Book Charters brings unmatched access, professionalism, and performance to every outing. We know the waters. We know the boats. And we know how to turn a fishing trip into an experience worthy of your time, your investment, and your trust.
