Lasted me an entire night of surf fishing and losing my shrimp to a bunch of bastard crabs too afraid to be dragged from the surf. They knew I'd Old Bay their asses because I hail from Baltimore. They just took the shrimp and ran for the hills...err, sand? Wherever crabs go. The staff didn't mind that I rudely showed up 5 minutes before they closed, and were super fast about ringing me up and getting me out the door so they could close this cool little shop up for the night. Tons of poles, reels, rigs, hooks, etc. Tons of bait choices, including live bait (like worms and minnows).

I have traveled the world for great catches and have been on several great charters. When I spend my hard earned dollars on a fishing charter, I expect a captain with like mind, dedication, experience, and tenacity. I want a Captain who pursues relentlessly, because that's just who they are. I want a Captain who wants to catch the fish, even more than I do... Captain Mark Fann is a true boat captain. This man hunts with a tenacity that you don't experience often from charter captains. His resume speaks for itself, but the respect that he was given by the other boat captains on the dock, was an amazing thing to see. It was as if he was the General amongst the fleet of tuna boats. There were several options available for charters, but I knew that we made a great choice with FishinFannatics. Mark is a serious hunter. He doesn't stop, not even for lunch. He doesn't play games, he wants his boat in order and everything functioning properly. He is a winner and refuses to let excuses come between him and a good catch. He is a great Captain and a great man. It was an honor to be in his presence, learning from a true master of the sport. I reserve a special title for the elite Captain's that I have encountered in my life. It's a very small group of exceptional anglers who have earned it. The title is, "O'Captain, My Captain". Captain Mark Fann is the now the newest member of this elite club. Thanks again Captain Mark for the amazing memories! We will see you again soon! DJ AtomicDrummer.com

Fishin Fannatic, out of Wanchese NC., the "Power's" off-shore charter on 08/27/2025, . Fishing is…read moresupposed to be a relaxing, enjoyable, stress-free sport. Not the case here. In a brief summary, when you read "Google" reviews and you see a "1 star" rating, you take it as someone did not have a good time or like some product or service, or a competitor slamming the competition. However, when you see six "Google 1 star" ratings within the last year (2025) including this one, you must ask yourself is something truly going on here? I have experienced many off-shore trips in my life time going out of Oregon Inlet, and had the pleasure of meeting many wonderful Captains and First Mates, but this was the first time going out of Wanchese, and it was not the case with this crew. Yes, the Captain did put us on some Mahi-Mahi, but at what cost. The entire trip you were talked down to or yelled at by an arrogant, egotistical First Mate (believe his name was Tom, but in the videos, he wears a wrap-around back brace and has a hard time holding his own balance), with the Captain hearing how he speaks to the charter members, without correcting him or taking control of the situation. I wanted to post more details on our group's charter; however, YELP restricts the number of characters (thus summarized). If you would like to read the other five "Google 1 star" reviews referenced above, with similar experiences on Fishin Fannatic they are: "Ray Scroggins (1 year ago)"; "Jake Johnson (2 months ago)"; "Shelly Kight (1 month ago)"; "Ben A (2 months ago)" and "Scott Knouse (8 months ago)". All in all, if you are looking for a relaxing, enjoyable, stress-free trip, you should look elsewhere!!!!! Hopefully, Captain Mark will turn things around on Fishin Fannatic by starting with a NEW First Mate and making sure those that contribute to his livelihood (the charter guest) are treated with respect! This charter was supposed to be an enjoyable relaxing stress-free trip (as advertised), but not the case.

The boat was beautiful, and our captain and first mate were wonderful--friendly, welcoming, and made the entire experience feel so special. They went above and beyond to personalize our sail with a beautiful charcuterie board, our favorite drinks, and music. And the homemade strawberry lavender jam on the charcuterie board was incredible--I actually tried to buy some to take home, but unfortunately it wasn't for sale! As if the gorgeous sail wasn't enough, we had dolphins swimming right beside the boat for a good portion of our trip. It was such an incredible experience to watch them so close while sailing. We ended the evening with a beautiful sunset, lots of laughs, and memories we'll never forget. This was hands-down one of our favorite experiences and truly the highlight of our trip to the Outer Banks. If you're considering a sunset sail in Manteo, book it! We would absolutely do it again.
