OBX: Fishing

The Outer Banks is a fishing coast first. Charter fleets at Oregon Inlet, Hatteras, and Pirate's Cove; surf casters on every beach in the fall; a fish-cleaning table under half the houses in Nags Head. The listings written by people who fish say which inlet they are close to and where you clean the catch.

Eight homes from four managers with their own booking sites, every listing naming the fishing center, a charter, or the cleaning station. Each links to the manager; you book with them.
