Boat & Captain:

Will McPherson

Captain Will McPherson has been fishing professionally out of Oregon Inlet since 1969. The first years as an offshore mate where tunas and billfish abound. By 1975 , Will ran his first offshore boat to the Marlin grounds. In 1981, he purchased his own boat which is now called the “Sinbad“. It didn’t take long to find a partner. In 1983 he was joined by his wife Vivian McPherson. The first few years she fished as a mate for both charter and commercial venues. Presently licensed also as a captain, she is right in the cockpit with the charters in efforts to show them there is more to fishing than just the bite! The boat as featured in the book “Carolina Flare”, is a custom built Warren O’Neal Sport fisher. True to her heritage she became a benchmark for successive yachts constructed in this style. Anyone familiar with N.C. cannot miss her lines. They are timeless!

We are right back at it hooking the blues and Spanish as we left them! Hurricane swell is almost gone and this weeks temps are more of Late Summer's offerings. I have had all my regulars right on track and catches yesterday offered good action and nice water beginning to move towards the beaches. We have a coldfront Wednesday night then another heat up so for the latest, keep current here and on our main site (or FB). Thanks to all for sticking with us and see you all on the tideline. V McPherson
