The Man Behind the Wheel
Born and raised on the outer banks, Captain John Canning III has spent more time on the water than on land. With a USCG Master's License and a deep respect for the Pamlico Sound, John specializes in light-tackle inshore fishing for Red Drum, Speckled Trout, and Flounder.
John's philosophy is simple: It's not just about the catch; it's about the adventure. Whether you are a seasoned angler looking for a citation drum or a family taking the kids out for their first time, John ensures a safe, productive, and memorable day on the water.
When he isn't guiding, John is usually scouting new spots or teaching his own children the ropes of the Hatteras tradition.
The Boat
Our boat is designed for speed, stability, and getting into the shallowest "skinny water" where the big fish hide.
