View Our Trips

Come join USCG Licensed Captain Dave Lusk for a great day on the water. Salt Minded Fishing Charters is the premiere light tackle inshore & nearshore fishing guide service on the OBX!

Captain Dave Lusk likes to use light tackle so the fish can offer up the best fight for his clients! We target a variety of fish including cobia, speckled trout, flounder, puppy drum, stripers, and more.

Captain Dave will use his local knowledge to give you the most enjoyable Outer Banks Fishing Charters experience. If you are staying in Duck, Kitty Hawk, Nags Head, Corolla, Kill Devil Hills, or even Hatteras – you are only a short drive from the dock! We charter all skill levels from beginners to expert anglers. Whether you want a nice day on the water with some fishing on the side, or a full day of rod bending action, we will do our best to accommodate you.

Salt Minded Charters also invite you to bring the kids. Watching the little ones smiles on their faces when they get to bait, hook, and reel in the fish all on their own is a great feeling! We will provide professional assistance and provide useful information that children can apply to all types of fishing!

We will be fishing in the sounds of the Outer Banks in protected waters where it is typically shallow and calm.  We also fish the nearshore waters just from 1-5 miles out.  Salt Minded Charters encourages you to ask questions and get involved in all the aspects of the trip as we want your fishing experience to be memorable and educational.  It’s time to contact Captain Dave Lusk with Salt Minded Fishing Charters to book your trip!

Captain Dave Lusk is a USCG Licensed OUPV Captain.  Salt Minded Fishing Charters is also insured!  When you hop aboard with Captain Dave you will be provided a safe and enjoyable Outer Banks Fishing Charters experience.  Head on over to the Info | Rates | Booking page to see more information and pricing of our trips.
