Chris is an excellent captain, great overall experience

We had a great 4 hour trip inshore with Captain Chris.  Two adults, two kids 11 and 12 - the Captain could not have been more accommodating and just flat out nice.  He took the time to teach the kids how to work the rods and helped out with everything from baiting to casting to unhooking the ~35 fish we caught during the 4 hours.  He knew exactly where to go and had us on fish within minutes of stopping at our first spot.  While your mileage may vary, and I’m sure the Captain is too humble to take the credit that he should, this guy definitely knows what he’s doing and is just a really wonderful person.  Stop reading this review and hit the book button, you won’t be sorry!!!

Chris greeted the three of us on the docks before our trip began. He made sure we boarded a freshly washed boat ready to set out for the trip. Chris gave us a brief rundown of what to expect and then took us out to his first spot. Chris was very friendly and made great conversation while helping us to fish effectively. He was very knowledgeable of the Sound and would answer any questions we had. All in all, it was a great experience to be on a boat with just our party and a captain that helped make the experience exactly what we were looking for. We will definitely look to charter with First Light next time we are in the Outer Banks.
