With many years charter fishing and a 4 year college degree in Aquaculture and Ag Science, Joey is not your average captain or fisherman! Capt. Joey VanDyke caught his first fish when he was 4 years old. He was fishing on Claytor Lake with his Dad and Grandfather. He fished all through his childhood years catching native brook trout and rainbow trout in nearby creeks. He also frequently fished for bass, striper, and catfish in the rivers of Southwest Virginia. At the age of 12, Capt. Joey took his very first offshore fishing trip. He was with his local Boy Scout troop, and they fished out of Oregon Inlet, North Carolina. At age 15 he landed a job mating on an offshore fishing boat and spent the summer catching tuna, wahoo, dolphin, bottom fish, and many other species. In his spare time he could be found fishing with a family friend, a surf fishing guide, learning how to catch drum and spanish mackerel in the surf of Hatteras Island. He also frequently fished for speckled trout and flounder in the Pamlico Sound. In 1990, when he was 18, he started mating on charter boats out of Hatteras Inlet and began his dream of offshore fishing for a living. Capt. Joey decided to move to Hatteras Island. In 2000, he began mating out of Oregon Inlet. You can say he’s been hooked on fishing all his life! Captain Joey prides himself in knowing and learning all he can about fish.
