Tailing Tide Guide Service
Welcome to Tailing Tide Guide Service, based out of Swansboro, North Carolina. We specialize in Fly Fishing and Light Tackle Charters. Sight fishing for redfish is our specialty, but we offer trips for many other saltwater species, inland trips for shad and striped bass, and sightseeing tours. Captain John Mauser is USCG Licensed and fully insured.
There are lots of guide services to choose from, depending on what you are looking to get out of your trip. We provide trips that are mainly based around North Carolina’s inshore shallow water fishery. Whenever possible we prefer to target fish by sight fishing. To us, there is nothing more exciting than stalking and casting to a redfish slowly pushing it's way through ankle deep water. Fly fishing is our bread and butter, but we also use conventional tackle with artificial lures. In special situations, we may also fish bait. We love having kids aboard, and also provide family friendly trips to get you and your children out on the water to catch some bottom fish and experience the outdoors.
What we aim to provide, is a fun day on the water and long lasting memories of your trip. We aren’t concerned with big egos and trying to load coolers with fish. You can expect to have a captain that will give his 100% to show you a great time, teach you something new, and introduce you to the beauty of coastal North Carolina.
