Learn MoreTar-Pam Guide Service offers a brand-new three-bedroom, two-bathroom lodge in Bath's Historic District just steps away from the water. The lodge has a fully furnished kitchen and all the comforts of home. The master bedroom has a queen bed, and the two other rooms have two single beds in each room, sleeping five to six guests comfortably. Outside, there is a gas grill and an adjacent empty lot for boat parking if needed.
In the mornings, our guests who are staying at the lodge are either picked up or follow their guide to the boat ramp. Our guests who are driving in will meet us at the ramp. All gear and equipment for fishing is provided, so that you can simply step on and off the boat without bringing a thing (although we don't discourage guests from bringing their own rods). We do not provide lunch, so our guests can bring a small cooler with their lunch, snacks, or any specialty drinks. We provide bottled water and ice. We usually take a short lunch break or eat while moving from one location to the next, so as not to limit our fishing time. Our charters are designed to be serious fishing trips, but we also like to maintain a laid-back, hospitable attitude. We strive to provide as much instruction as desired and educate our guests about the area and our fishery so that they have a well-rounded experience.
North Carolina's Inner Banks are a special place where the freshwater rivers originating from North Carolina and Virginia's mountain foothills and central Piedmont meet the state's vast coastal brackish estuaries. The Pamlico and Albemarle Sounds and their associated tributaries are some of the most extensive estuaries in the United States and host a variety of saltwater and freshwater species, including striped bass, redfish, flounder, spotted sea trout, weakfish, tarpon, American and hickory shad, bluefish, Spanish mackerel, and most freshwater warmwater species found in the south.
Half-day, four-hour charter: $500
Three-quarter-day, six-hour charter: $650
Full-day, eight-hour charter: $800

Do we provide fly rods?
We utilize all Orvis Helios 3 fly rods with appropriate lines and flies; however, we encourage you to bring your own gear if you prefer.
Do we provide lunch?
We do not provide lunch, but you are encouraged to bring your own lunch and any drinks other than water if you'd like as we provide bottled water and ice.
Do I need to purchase a fishing license?
Depending on where we fish, you may need to purchase an INLAND fishing license. North Carolina has INLAND and COASTAL jurisdictional water, requiring separate licenses. We have you covered if fishing in coastal waters with our boat's blanket coastal license.
