12/4  Today we had our good friend Capt. Jerry from San Diego CA aboard.  Capt Jerry and his father (Pops) have fished with us many years.  Today Jerry and several of Pops friends celebrated Pops life with placing his ashes in the Blue Gulfstream. Jerry and friends went on to have a good day on the water.  Plenty of nice Triggers, Blackfin Tuna and a Wahoo.

11/27/16  Yesterday was a little choppy NE, but our salty crew was ready to go fishing!  We fished our way to the NE all day just incase the weatherman was wrong.  The morning was very slow, then we found a nice current edge around lunch catching some Dolphin, couple of Blackfin and a Wahoo.  Weather defiantly effected our fishing, but at the end of the day fun had by all!

Bill Collector will be available for Offshore trips, Tuna and Wahoo till Christmas! 
Giant Bluefin Tuna: A couple of Bluefin have been caught this past week by recreational anglers!  Several places of BFT have been sighted off Cape Lookout as well!  The Commercial season for BFT is Closed at this time.  What does this mean for recreational angling?  It means your chance at catching one of these giants is better due to a lot less pressure on the fish!  Recreational bag limits are still open at this time, but this is predominantly a catch and release fishery.  If you have ever wanted to angel one of these giants now is the time.  Give us a call for info on Giant BFT fishing!  252-247-5617

8/20/16 Bill Collector has spent the last week fishing the Alice Kelly Tournament and the PCBT Tournament at OI.  We also charter fished all our two lay days and the PCBT Lay Day Tournament. We had good marlin action all week, catch three Blue Marlin several Sails and Whites during the week.  We had a Grand Slam on Thursday with an extra Sail on our lay day, but won the Lay Day Tournament.  At weeks end I think we finished up around 18th out of 72 boats.  A well run event and Bill Collector is planning on being back next year!

8/13  Sorry for the delay in reports, We have have been rolling daily, here is a short synopsis of the past weeks fishing.  We have had to deal with some very hot water and current again this week and it defiantly slowed things down.  We have scraped along with Wahoos, a few Dolphin and some Sailfish action.  Some nice big Triggers the past week also.  The current fell out yesterday, winds clocked to the SW and the Wahoo started back biting.   Fall is prime Wahoo time and we have dates available.  www.billcollectorcharters.com
