I have been on this boat twice and generally had a good experience. The captain and mate are very…read moreknowledgeable and helpful and in both trips we caught a lot of fish. My only issue has come up twice and after a little research I have decided that it is worth mentioning. On both trips, after the fish were laid out on the dock, the mate took fish and put them back on the boat. On both occasions, he carefully inspected the fish to ensure that he took some of the best. This was done after we tipped him very well and without asking the people that paid for the charter if this was ok. I checked around and found that this is not a common practice and folks were pretty shocked about hearing of it. I didn't want to make a scene at the time as there were a lot of people on the dock looking at the boats as they returned with their catch. Again, overall a good experience, but it ended in a way that left us feeling like were had been taken advantage of. Not sure if we will go with these guys again with so many other options.

Went for tuna with 5 from our family. Turned into a long day of trolling. We were hoping for more…read moreactual "fishing" since there was very little to do but periodically reel in heavy buoys and drag gear when the captain said a fish was finally on one of the hooks attached to all the gear. That gave us no "feel" for fishing or the fight when catching a fish. In fairness, the Captain did all he could to find tuna, with several being caught - that was ok. The mate meanwhile was quite a challenge, bordering on rude and insolent to all of us. Because of that, would not recommend.

Repeat customer! Done whole and half days with him. Sent my whole family out with him (he can…read morehost 4 passengers). Cpt Donnie is a great guide. All the rods were ready to go as soon as we got out there. He again did a great job putting us on the fish. (We just want to catch, not picky with what we're catching!). His boat rides smooth and he does a good job of keeping it as still as possible when fishing. (Meaning, it doesn't require a lot of balance to stand and fish and move about the boat - the sides are high enough that you don't have to worry about falling off. One of my children has balance issues, so this is a real plus for us.) another one of my kids gets motion sickness easily, but has never had a problem on his boat. My third kid has ADHD and is super hyper, and Cpt. Donnie was great with him (never lost his patience and even seemed to entertain him.) He's taken us around Oregon inlet and behind bodie island lighthouse. Scenery is a beautiful as the experience is fun. Dolphins are always spotted - we generally go in mid-October during our annual obx vacation. We look forward to going out with him again next year. Would definitely recommend.

I've been fishing with Donnie on the DOA since the early 2000's. This guy gives it his all. I've…read morelearned so much about all types of fishing while being on his boat. No matter if it's fishing in the sound, near shore or slightly offshore this guy is knowledgable on navigating the local waters and catching fish. He is that guide that will explain why "we" are fishing a certain way using a certain technique. If you want to learn how to catch numerous species of fish depending on the time of the year as well as learn about the water and weather patterns and overall become a better angler, book a trip. You won't be disappointed.

BLUF: A fun outing for friends and family with a safe and experienced Captain and waterman…read more I come from a family of waterman and waterwomen so I always enjoy learning the craft of others. Since I'd never been shrimping and my knowledge was limited to what I learned from Lieutenant Dan I thought it would be fun to book a trip with Captain Marc. We booked a three hour tour on the Roanoke Sound. No Gilligan or skipper but we had Capt Marc and first mate Aiden. Also, the outcome was much better than that on Gilligan's Island. We spent most of the time Shrimpin ' and then quickly had a half bushel basket overflowing with nice crabs - mostly, full #1s and a few measure-worthy Jimmy's. Shrimping was fun and interesting but our catch wasn't that great. The brown shrimp had left the Sound and the green shrimp weren't running yet. We caught enough shrimp to fill a gallon bag half way. Even if we hadn't caught any shrimp I would have had a blast. It was neat to see the process and what was in the net when it came up - everything from a rusty rogue crab pot to an ugly Oyster Toasfish to a tropical-looking butterfly fish. When the shrimp net came up we got to sort through the catch - shrimp were set aside, small fish were saved for bait and all other sea creatures were safely returned to the Sound. Despite having seven crabbers in my party in including two commercial crabbers - we loved pulling pots from the water and culling our catch. My crabbing family uses trotlines so pulling pots was a new experience for us. Ultimately We took our catch which was the 1/2 gallon bag of shrimp and 3/4 bushel basket crabs home in our cooler and enjoyed them all. We also enjoyed the company of the first (and only) Mate Aiden. He worked hard to keep the boat clean and organized and answered our questions. Three hours was just enough time for our group but I can see where others would enjoy a little more time on the boat. The experience was very chill which I liked but a few members of my party were wishing we had a card game or something to play. For an August trip we packed a cooler, water, soft drinks, sunscreen, hats and a few light snacks. Overall, this was a great experience and a great crew.

this was a fantastic charter. marc and mate aiden were friendly, easy to work with and patient with…read morethe kids. HIGHLY recommend. marc's goal is to provide a safe and friendly trip and get you as much crab and shrimp he can! the kids (5,7&11) hooked in the crabs and said it was the highlight of our week long trip. you will not be disappointed if you book.
