Each charter is purpose-built for a target — inshore reds and trout in shallow water, offshore mahi and wahoo at the gulf stream, or a 24-hour overnight bluefin tuna run with bunks and a galley. Pick by species and we'll pick the boat.
Calm-water trip for redfish, speckled trout, flounder, and Spanish mackerel. Great for first-timers, kids, and anyone who'd rather not spend the day on rolling water. Bait, tackle, and ice included.
The flagship run — out to the gulf stream for mahi, wahoo, blackfin tuna, and a shot at billfish in summer. Live bait, kite-fishing, deep-jigging. Returns by 4 PM with cleaned fillets bagged for the cooler.
Overnight long-range trip targeting yellowfin and bluefin tuna 60+ miles offshore. Two-bunk cabin, full galley, and chumming-through-dark setup. For experienced anglers and serious crews. Limit four.
Twin-screw diesels, full electronics suites, and crews that have been on this dock for ten years. Each boat is rigged for a specific water — and we don't take any of them where they don't belong.

We're not a concierge service routing you to whichever charter has a slot. We own the boats. We hire the captains. We clean the fish. Every booking is direct, every captain is on payroll, and every dollar stays on the dock.
All three captains hold a USCG 100-Ton Master license, drug-tested annually. We carry $1M liability per vessel and a current TWIC card.
Every catch is filleted dockside, vacuum-sealed, and packed in marine-grade ice for the trip home. Cleaning is included — never an upsell.
If an offshore trip returns skunked we'll discount your next charter 30% — applies to inshore and offshore, no questions, valid 12 months.
Started by Capt. Roy in 2009 with a single 38-footer. Still on the same dock. Still answers the phone himself before 6 AM.
"My father fished his last season on the Hull Truth. The crew kept his rod, signed it, and mailed it home. That's who Tide Mark is."— Daniel R. · Greensboro, NC · Repeat charter since 2014
Charter calendar opens 60 days out. Most weekends in the offshore season are gone within 72 hours. Reserve your date and we'll lock the boat, the bait, and a captain.
