Jack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Captain Christopher Dibler consistently delivers exceptional fishing results, with customers catching impressive varieties including triggerfish, sea bass, cobia, sheepshead, flounder, bluefish, and Spanish mackerel. One experienced angler at 76 years old called Chris the best charter captain he's encountered. Within the first two hours, groups regularly land 10+ fish with multiple keepers, thanks to Chris's knowledge of productive reef locations and his ability to quickly reposition when spots aren't producing. Chris excels with families and novice anglers, giving special attention to children and patiently teaching beginners proper techniques. He stays in close communication before trips, offering rescheduling options during rough weather and switching to inlet fishing when ocean conditions aren't ideal. Customers consistently mention his helpful first mate Gavin, pre-baited hooks, and Chris's cooking advice for their catch, with many already planning return trips.

Trip - Nags Head NC Nearshore Fishing Charter for Wreck and Trolling Species on September 2, 2025

8:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Chris called me the day before and gave me the option to cancel or reschedule due to the rough ocean. Instead of rescheduling we decided to fish the Inlet. Chris was able to get my daughter in a better mood and she ended up catching more fish than anyone else. She had a blast. My son didnt catch anything but he had a great time and insists that the next time we come to OBX, we call Chris again!

Chris was fantastic! 10/10 recommend In Debt Charters. This was our first time fishing in the OBX and we caught Bluefish and Spanish Mackerel. Chris told us how to cook them up and we had a fantastic dinner because of it. We'll definitely be booking with In Debt Charters again.

“Dan and Maggie” We had such a memorable day out on the water with Captain Chris! He was so helpful, especially with my wife, who is really green when it comes to fishing. He had us on some fish as soon as the boat stopped! Got a few fish in the well quick and really boosted your confidence and started the good vibes! Overall we got a good variety of fish from tiggers, to sea bass, some Bonita, a couple ribbon, and even had a shark in the boat momentarily. We could not be more pleased with all of the help and the great experience we received for Captain Chris with “ In Debt Charters”

Captain Chris did an outstanding job. We brought along our two grandchildren, aged 5 and 10, and Captain Chris gave them a lot of attention, making it a fantastic experience. Despite the fish not being very cooperative, Captain Chris put in a lot of effort and employed various fishing techniques. It was an absolutely delightful boat ride, and we'll certainly be booking with him on our next trip in the future.

At the age of 76, I've experienced numerous fishing charters, and I must say that Captain Dibler stands out as the best. His top priority is ensuring that his customers have an enjoyable trip, and he consistently goes above and beyond, exceeding expectations by more than 100 percent.
