Friendly City Fishing Charters invites you for an enjoyable and fun day of fishing in Swansboro, North Carolina. Along with Captain Matthew Littleton, you will hit the inshore, nearshore, and backcountry waters as well flats in the Swansboro and Emerald Isle area and have a great time chasing many different species. Choose a date that suits you and embark on your fishing journey!
You will be fishing from a 22’ Pathfinder bay boat that can take up to 6 anglers. It runs on a 150 HP Yamaha engine and uses GPS, fishfinder, radio, as well as radar technology for safe and quick movement on the water. It also features a wireless trolling motor, a multimedia system, and a livewell.
You and the captain will go after King and Spanish Mackerel, Black Seabass, Cobia, Spotted Seatrout, Sheepshead, Flounder, Redfish, and Black Drum. Using light tackle, you will attract your prey by bottom fishing, trolling, spinning, as well as Flounder gigging. You’re welcome to bring kids on your trip and you can keep all the fish you catch if you want to.
Captain Matthew will take care of the rods, reels, tackle, live bait, lures, as well as fishing licenses. In addition, he can clean and fillet your catch at the end of your trip for free, if you want him to. Before you depart, just make sure you have some snacks and drinks.
Visit Friendly City Fishing Charters and have a great time fishing in Swansboro!

We really enjoyed our trip with Capt Matt! Very family friendly and put us on some good redfish. Kept the kids engaged and we even caught our limit. We would definitely go back again!

Capt. Matt is a really fun guy and really nice. Caught our limit on red drum and, caught black drum too. He talked throughout the trip and had some funny jokes. Also talked with my sons about Harry Potter. Really good at driving boat as well. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
