Captain Brian, knows his home waters well and will put you in the best position he can for you to catch fish. We did a full day trip and started the morning catching gator trout. (I’ll include pictures below) Later that morning after nearly limiting out speckled trout he offered us a chance to chase red fish. He made sure we were aware that is wasn’t a guarantee and that we could move areas and continue to fish for trout if that what we wanted. My group and I decided that we wanted to chase the red fish and captain Brian produced for us! (Pictures will be posted below). Captain Brian was a straight shooter and never gave us false promises. I’ve done 10-15 saltwater charters and Reelistic fishing charters was the best one I’ve done. Great captain, great boat, and great fish.

If you read no further than the first couple of lines, do yourself a favor and book your trip with Captain Brian on Reelistic Fishing Charters. You can be confident that you are going out with the best.

I've done quite a bit of offshore and inshore fishing in this area and this is the first time I've been out with Brian. His peers in the area all know him and all told us that he's one of the best fisherman they know. That should tell you something.

We went out with 4 experienced fisherman eager to catch some meat, and we sure accomplished that. Throughout the trip, we learned a lot and Brian was awesome. He will absolutely tailor his methods and instruction to your experience level, which is just awesome. His boat is great, and he will take you where others can't, just because he is that good and his boat is so capable.

We went out on a very calm day with little to no wind or tide movement, which had us all worried, but Brian got us into the places he knew gave us the best chances to succeed. We immediately started catching and pullin em in. By the time we finished, we hit our limits on speckled trout, red drum, and caught a flounder for good measure.

I know we'll be going out with Brian from now on, and i can't wait to bring my young son with next time.

Thanks for an AWESOME trip Brian.

When I booked a four-hour afternoon trip, I’ll be honest; I wasn’t holding out a lot of hope for day and really just thought my hubby would like being on the water. Brian proved me wrong though—it was an exciting four hours. First, Brian’s boat is very tidy; you can tell he cares about his business. When he asked us how must fishing we have done, we use have given him the deer in the headlights look, because he just let us know that being fishing virgins was just fine with him! He took us to a great shallow spot, about a 30-minute ride out from the marina, and baited and cast the hooks, then proceeded to explain the kinds of fish we could expect to catch and what we should watch for. After about 20 minutes, we caught our first fish, a 14” trout, and for the next three hours, we reeled in another 9 fish, 4 of which we kept, including a monster 27” Red Drum (not, redrum—ha!). When we got back the the condo we rented, I made fish tacos with a recipe the guy at the fish clearing service gave me (he filleted our fish and wrapped them for us for a very reasonable price). Brian is knowledgeable and personable, and we had a wonderful time. We can’t wait to do it again!

If you or your family are looking for a fun and exciting fishing experience, you just found it. Captain Brian is simply the best! I have fished on charters from Maine to the Florida Keys and you will not find a more knowledgeable, passionate, hard working, and honest captain anywhere. From the moment you step onboard his boat he is in pursuit of fish and determined to find them. If you are not catching fish, you can bet you won't be in that spot for long. He constantly changes location and techniques to match the conditions and put his clients on the best fishing possible. I have fished with him 5 times over the last 3 years and have had a blast on every trip and I can't wait to go back!

Dicey weather was the story on our latest trip fishing with Brian King. He made the call to charge a trout hole while it was raining and when we got there, it was game on with the first cast. We ended up landing some solid specs in the 20+ range. I've been fishing with him twice now and both times we scored great fish. He's friendly, knowledgable and fun to fish with. I'd highly recommend him.

Captain Brian provided us with a great experience catching 20 speckled trout over a 4 hour trip. He is very knowledgeable and did everything in his power to ensure we had a great time which we absolutely did. I would highly recommend Reelistic Fishing Charters, and I look forward to another expedition with him the next time I’m in OBX.

Captain Brian is simply the best. I have fished with him 3 times and he always works hard to find the fish. 1st trip we limited out on cobia, Spanish mackerel, and bluefish. 2nd trip we sight casted drum in skinny water and wound up with a limit and a total of 26 fish caught. And my 3rd trip we targeted trout, caught them good and then transitioned to fishing for puppy drum and caught around 15. No other charter that I have been on has had a captain that works this hard for their clients or produces this many fish. Captain Brian is also very personable and knowledgeable and answer any questions you may have, along with keeping the trip upbeat if the fishing is slow while he’s finding the fish. I will not go nearshore/ inshore fishing with anyone else. If you have the chance to book Brian do it, you will not regret it.

Had two groups of four go on half day trips 1pm to 5pm. First group had great conditions and had a blast. Second group the day after had rough conditions and still caught a lot of fish. Both groups limited out and then did some catch and release. 10/10 would go again with Reelistic Fishing Charters, highly suggest to go with if you get the chance!

BK is an awesome guide. Had my grandson for his first Drum fishing trip and BK was fantastic in explaining everything so he could have an amazing experience. Fishing was very good as BK knew exactly where to find the fish. My brother and I relived our past fishing trips when we were teenagers. Already booked a trip for 2024. Reelistic is a beautiful boat and accommodated the three of us. We took a ton of pictures as it was a beautiful day.

Bottom Line Up Front: Reelistic should be at the top of your list for Fishing Charter Options.

I'm writing this overwhelmingly positive review even though our trip wasn't quite as successful as we were hoping for. Getting out on the water, it was easy for us to see that the conditions weren't ideal for targeting trout or drum (what we came for). Brian was up front with us regarding what are chances were of catching a trout or drum and he went above and beyond trying to put us on the fish. He gave us a memorable experience despite the cold water and limited visibility. He is clearly experienced and knows these waters very well. In the end, he found us a nice spot to pull up white catfish and he even gave us some extra time to fill the cooler. We came back to dock with 15 fish and smiles on our faces.

Brian will be the first Captain we call when we return to OBX.
