Shine Eye Girl OBX Charters

Visit Wanchese, North Carolina and join us aboard the Shine Eye Girl for a fishing experience of a lifetime! The “Shine Eye Girl” is a staple of outer banks charter fishing history. Built by Warren O’Neal in 1960, she was a revolutionary vessel of her time and she paved the way for modern-day sportfishing. She’s since been restored (2015) and recently repowered (2021) to provide a modernized yet classic fishing experience. The boat’s fully equipped with up-to-date technology and top-of-the-line gear to make sure you maximize your chances of finding and catching fish.

Captain Josh Brindley was born and raised right here on the outer banks and has numerous years of fishing experience. He and the crew will provide you with a safe and enjoyable day on the water and give the extra effort to make sure you go home with fish for dinner!

It’s fishing gear includes a fighting chair, outriggers, downriggers, and a livewell, as well as a large fish box for your catch.
