Here’s what anglers are saying about their trips with Wild Rover III Charters based in Carolina Beach, NC

★★★★★

“We chartered the Wild Rover III to scatter a family member's ashes at sea. Captain Dave did a great job and made the event very special for us. We especially appreciated his experience doing that kind of thing, turning three circles around the spot before departing the area, and presenting us with a certificate with the coordinates for where we did the ceremony.”
