Captain Jesse Gawlik’s motto is “No Fish is Safe!” and he lives and breathes it every day operating Ocean Stinger Fishing Charters out of Wrightsville Beach, NC. He has more than 10 years’ experience as a charter captain and is living his dream fishing the rich Gulf Stream waters and giving his customers an incredible experience each day on the water.

Ocean Stinger is a 40’ Luhrs and even though it is chock full of all the right equipment and comfort features it still gets on the fi sh fast at 30 knots. Ocean Stinger’s usual port is Wrightsville Beach but Capt. Jesse also runs out of Oregon Inlet and Hatteras as the conditions dictate.

Capt. Jesse fishes year-round, with some of the highlights including winter bluefin tuna fishing, fall and winter wahoo and red hot action all summer. Depending on the day Ocean Stinger may also target yellowfin tuna, king mackerel, dorado, grouper, snapper, marlin and sailfish. Customers excited for their upcoming trip may read Capt. Jesse’s fishing reports on his website or Fisherman’s Post Magazine, where he is a featured writer in the popular magazine.

While he lives up to his motto No Fish is Safe, Capt. Jesse’s other commitment is giving his customers the best possible day on the water, and as a result Ocean Stinger has some of the best reviews in the Carolinas.
