My son and myself love to fish. Only problem is we like to carry a few people to split cost on our boat. I keep getting people that tell me I will go but when I call them its always same old story I don't have any money. We fish a 23 mako and live all kind of fishing. Fish mainly out of Morehead and emerald isle. We offshore, bottom fish,king fish and open to learn any other kind. I have all equipment just need serious people. Thanks

I experienced the same thing at first. It doesn't take long to weed out the BSers. I've got about 6 people I call for a trip. That will usually net me at least 2 people. My guys usually have work issues as I fish during the week as much as possible. Good luck in your search.

Yep .. what Larrry said! I think we all have 1 or 2 people that will be consistent. Then there are the other 3 or 4 that ALWAYS want to go but never can. I really have one guy that goes with me 99% of the time. The rest is a coin toss.....but you have found the right site to get your boat full when needed. There are a bunch of great guys/gals/fishermen that will not only fish with you...but know what the heck is going on and can assist you in setting your spread...rig baits...gaff fish...

Good Luck!

What he said ^.

I have one guy with work issues and a few that have excuse issues. I pretty much gave up and just go alone. My boat is a 21'er so I need decent water or I fish the ICW or river. If I waited on people my boat would be full of cobwebs. I think I'll go tomorrow if it is not raining...

I live in Beaufort and have a job that most of the time I can take off from and fish. There are several on here that have the same type of deal so you shouldn't have any problem filling trips. If you ever need anybody to go you let me know. Especially offshore let me know. I am always willing to go. Heck I've even taken NcStateFisher (who I met on here) on my boat. This place is an excellent place to find fishing partners.

Rick and Coastal: I fish a 24 seahunt out of cherry grove. I am in a similar situation as Mako dad. I go a lot during the week trying to hit the "calm" days. Let me know if want to go sometime.
