Captain Dave Hegel while attending East Carolina University in the early 1980's, worked at Sea Ox Boats in Greenville, NC.

Captain Dave has decades of experience fishing with industry legends.

Based in Oriental, NC; Pamlico Pirate Fishing Charters offers Beaufort, Cape Lookout, Neuse River & Pamlico Sound Charters to chase the amazing NC various species opportunities.  From; "Fat Alberts" or false albacore @ the famed Cape Lookout "Hook" in the fall, to Cobia & Bonita in the Spring followed by Trophy Redfish, Slot Reds, Bluefish, Trout and Striper in the amazing Neuse River & Pamlico Sound system spring to fall. ALL are fantastic light tackle fun! If your thing is to catch a shark, Captain Dave LOVES to catch shark on the reefs!
