Going Bogue Outdoors
Over the July 4th weekend, I had the opportunity to hop on the Going Bogue Outdoors charter led by Captain Byron Shults on his 27’ Onslow Bay out of Atlantic Beach, NC. We started this 12-hour full day offshore trip with some trolling where we landed a few Mahi. After some time, we switched it up to bottom fishing where we landed quite a few bliners, trigger fish, sea bass and even a gag grouper. Capt. Shults was a delightful captain that is very knowledgeable about his trade and was more than happy to answer questions and even tell you some of his best practices. I would book him again and highly recommend.
