Welcome to the home of Salvation Sportfishing! Offering the most convenient access to Gulf Stream fishing along the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Based out of Ocracoke, NC and offering year round NC charter operations with a professional crew.
We specialize in full day offshore charters from Ocracoke and Oregon Inlet. We charter fish out of Ocracoke March-July, and then move up to Oregon Inlet during August and September to take advantage of the hot marlin bite. We return to charter fish Ocracoke through the fall months of October and November.
Our Mission – We realize there are a lot of other charter boats along the Outer Banks to choose from. Some good, some great, and some bad. Our promise if you choose to fish with the Salvation team, is that you will have a safe, enjoyable day on the water, and will we work as hard as possible to insure your day is a successful one. We can’t control the fish, but what we can control is how hard we work before your trip in preparations, and during the actual fishing day to insure success. We will NOT just take you on a boat ride and say we went fishing. If you are looking for a quality fishing experience, on a top of the line boat, with an experienced and friendly crew, then the Salvation is right for you.
About the boat:
The Salvation is a custom built 50′ Omie Tillet, and is regarded as one of the finest sportfishers ever built. It features a soft ride, comfortable salon with heating and A/C, sleeping accommodations for 6, all of the latest marine safety provisions, and most importantly-it is rigged to catch fish! Over the past 2 seasons we have completed extensive updates, including all new electronics, re-powered with new Cummins engines, and many other improvements. The Salvation is the fasted boat in the Ocracoke fleet, with run times normally less than 1 hour to the fishing grounds.
