Meet The Captain
Your Guide For A Waterman’s Experience
My name Phil Millis and I truly am a native of this area. A fully licensed and insured Captain, I have been fishing, clamming, oystering, shrimping, floundering and exploring the waters from Sneads Ferry to Oak Island and the Cape Fear River since I was a very young boy. This area is an amazing fishery where on any given day we may catch Red Drum, Black drum, Spotted Sea Trout, Flounder, Bluefish, Sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel, Cobia and Amberjack. From December thru April we fish the Cape Fear and other rivers for Striped Bass. If you prefer to do something other than fish I also offer other options such as clamming, oystering, crabbing, turtle nesting and hatching observations (seasonal), Dock N Dine cruises, remote island shelling, wildlife and bird photography sessions, eco tours and much more. If you want to learn more about these trips go to the top of this page and click on the “More” button and then select “Booking Menu”. I cater to all ages and skill levels but I especially love teaching kids and seeing their faces lite up when they catch fish or discover something new. I love meeting new people and sharing what I have learned over the past 6 decades about this area I call home. If you want to learn more about me and my family hit the “Learn More” button below.
Please take a moment or two to explore my web site, there is a lot of useful information here about my favorite restaurants, breweries, distilleries, bakeries, and ice cream shops. There are also buttons that you can check the weather, tides and NC Department of Marine Fisheries so you can stay updated on the laws and licensing requirements. Thank You for visiting!!!
