From the owner: Hook, Line and Sandbar Charters is a lifelong dream for USCG Captain Todd Burns. He's been fishing…read morethe SOBX waters for over 25 years with friends and family. He's in his element anytime he's heading offshore. He made the decision to move to the area and never looked back. He caters to the hard core angler wanting to fish offshore without breaking the bank! He enjoys taking families inshore fishing, creating memories to last a lifetime, as their child catches their first fish. Hook, Line and Sandbar Charters also offers scenic, family friendly ECO tours. There's nothing like watching your child search for a dolphin pod swimming in the beautiful waters off the NC Crystal Coast. Your child can be a lookout for wild horses roaming an island or shelling on Shackleford Banks. A Sunset Cruise is a relaxing way to end the day. Cruise to Cape Lookout National Seashore to see the lighthouse up close. Book a tour to cruise the ICW, Bogue Sound or the local waterfronts in Beaufort, Morehead City or Swansboro NC.

The cost to park was 5$ for 40 minutes, max around $30 for the day. There was an ice cream shop but it had closed before we arrived. We like more relaxing places so we will not be back. If you are looking to pack a cooler and fish for the day, off the pier, then it might be for you!

I grew up fishing here and the local area (25 years) I have really really tried to give this pier a…read morechance with the constantly changing rules and management (four times I gave them) and this last one did it for me. I had two eyes break off an old rod, I kept it there with my stuff because I wanted to see what happened (pressure, wear, epoxy failure) and swapped reel to another one from my car. When I was leaving after watching the hoveround gang come and flex their AARP affiliation, I had SIX people come out (they have walkie talkies) and tell me I had too many rods and that though the one was beaten like a dead mule and visibly not usable (missing the top of the darn rod tbh) that I shouldn't do it there again... because I was idk huckleberry finning for crawdads or something... one or two saying it okay; but six. Jesus, I know this is the first time y'all have had power over other people and such but damn... I might be a bit forgetful at my age now but not that quick. If I go back ya'll can hold my rods and bait em for me to make sure I don't upset any rules (as kids are smoking dope and drunk as hell on the pier)....

I visited the Rodanthe Pier when in the Outer Banks (OBX), celebrating my 40th birthday! I believe…read moreI paid $3 to walk on the pier to sightsee. There were a plethora of fishermen and fisherwomen. I was astounded by how many catches everyone got, in the hour I spent on the pier. Many different types of fish were caught using different lures, fishing rods, and homemade contraptions. There was a shop, where I paid my entry fee, that had fresh blood worms, fishing tackle, t-shirts, and anything else you needed to be great. The view was amazing and humbling. I think I started to get a little sea sick because the pier was rocking as the waves hit it The further I walked to the end of the pier, I said a little prayer that my knees/legs wouldn't give out on me or I wouldn't lose my breakfast, in front of all these people I will be back and enjoyed every moment!
